테러와의 전쟁

 

Good evening. At the end of the week, in which the government acknowledged that Al-Qaeda has regrouped and is plotting to infiltrate 침투하다, 잠입하다 the US. There is disturbing 몹시 염려되는 news about one of the nation’s new weapons against terrorism. The US has appropriated <특수 목적> < > 충당하다 $2 billion for new high tech scanners that are supposed to detect any nuclear devices being smuggled 몰래 갖고 들어오다 into this country in cars, trucks, and ships. We learned today that Congress has serious questions about the programs saying the machines are ineffective 쓸모 없는. Our chief investigative correspondent Brian Ross from New York with details tonight. Brian?

 

Elizabeth, what’s at stake 문제가 되어 here is not only the billions of dollars that scientists say had been wasted on machines that don’t work, but the fact that the country remains wide open to terrorists who might try to smuggle nuclear material into the country. The scene today at the port of Los Angeles was one that has been repeated many times since the 911 attacks. Senior officials demonstrating yet another new expensive machine that supposedly can detect nuclear material hidden in shipping containers.

 

A Government Accountability Office 감사원 report concluded the same new machines fell far short of the 95% level of performance. At best 기껏해야 45% accurate. Sometimes as low as only 17% accurate. That’s why Congress now wants a new round of tests before they will allow any more money to be spent on the system.
