Security and intelligence co-operation really is the litmus test of the alliance. Governments come and go and political priorities change but at an operational level there is a very deep level of co-operation particularly between the UK and the US - to the extent that in the hours after 9/11 when nothing was allowed to take off or land anywhere in the US, the only aircraft allowed to fly in was a senior delegation from MI6.
