Possibly, but then why are the headquarters and centers for intelligence not in the heart of place like NYC or La, but in places like Quantico, Ft. Mead, etc. Maybe the powers that be aren't really concerned about the needs and convenience of those particular employees...

Could it be a case of not putting ones eggs all in the same basket and spreading out what would surely be targets in times of hostility?

Good point, but you have to admit, the actual headquarters buildings of those agencies, and the Pentagon, where the actual 'brainpower' resides, are very massive and extensive structures, pretty open targets if you wanted to get at them; not exactly 'hidden in plain sight'...

True that, I was thinking why take out a huge city and its population plus the added bonus of a high value target of whatever kind of business it was conducting.
