Way down at the bottom of the NY Times article about the FBI’s problems translating all the material they intercept:
“Since terrorists attacked the United States on 9/11, the F.B.I. has been trying to assure the Congress and the public that its translation program is on the right track,” said Senator Charles E. Grassley, Republican of Iowa. “Unfortunately, this report shows that the F.B.I. is still drowning in information about terrorism activities with hundreds of thousands of hours of audio yet to be translated.”Mr. Grassley also urged the inspector general to release a public version of an internal report about the case of a former F.B.I. linguist, Sibel Edmonds, who complained of ineptitude and possible espionage in the translation program. A still-classified version of the report found that Ms. Edmonds’s complaints played a part in the F.B.I.’s decision to dismiss her in 2002, officials said.
