WET List

The Western European Terrorist (WET) list is a fictional device created by the show’s writers.

The real National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC) maintains a list of known and suspected international terrorists as well as people who allegedly aid them. This database is a shared knowledge bank, compiled from reports supplied by agencies including the CIA, the FBI and the National Security Agency (NSA). The NSA is a key provider of information for the NCTC list.
