Not as such, but I think the moles stray too far into a mindset of "I am tasked to watch criminals that haven't been caught" instead of "I am tasked to find out whether these guys are criminal". Their boss is demanding they have something to show for all the time they've sunk into a surveillance, so eventually they nudge things along into entrapment. If they screw things up... well they have little to no accountability for terrorist-related investigations. They've had 20 years for their diligence, adherence to procedure, and consciences to erode.
