..you have absolutely *no* idea what  you're talking about.  Having
worked in the Govt for anti-terrorism, I can tell you that threats
significantly worse than what happened were prevented.  If the
American people ever knew how big a threat terrorism really is and
has been we'd have panic in the streets worse than a Godzilla movie.
The war on terrorism has been going on for a very long time.  You
think that America, the biggest and one of the easiest targets for 
terrorism wouldn't of suffered much sooner than this if the FBI, CIA,
NSA and INTERPOL and well as other law enforcement and intelligence
agencies haven't been working their butts off so you can go to
sleep at night without a grenade blowing your ass halfway across
the street?

The government *cannot* stop every terrorist attack.  Terrorists are
shewed, their resources vast and they have absolutely no conscience.
Additionally, the American people didn't *want* to spend tons of money
on anti-terrorism...our NIMBY
attitude has, unfortunately led to this.  Now we're all screaming to
spend more money and to be protected from such heinous acts, yet
when we could of used the money and resources to possibly prevent
this, no one wanted to agree to spend the money that was needed
to get the job done.

I'm not blaming the American people for what happened...clearly the
blame lies directly on the shoulders on those that committed this
horrendous act of terrorism.  However, to blame the folks that work
around the clock trying to keep our soil safe from these attacks,
especially when they aren't allowed to discuss their successes, is
a cheap shot and they don't deserve it.
