Embassy Bombings justify FBI crypto policies?

Jamie Flournoy writes "The FBI and the more Big Brotherish types in the US Congress are using the recent embassy bombings as examples of what they want to prevent with key recovery and/or key escrow. Here's the problem with that theory: the embassy bombings happened (i.e. were not detected or prevented by US intelligence forces) under the current, strict export controls - not under the proposed unrestricted export reforms that crypto people seek! So this hardly proves that these export controls work - in fact it proves that international terrorism continues with or without crypto regulation." When will they clue in? They can't stop crypto, it's already international. We'll just get friends in other countries to write it. Ugh.
