A fine example of the power of meaning-metamorphosis.
What about this twist on the same words: 9/11 confirmed everbody's worst fears about fundamentalist terrorism? That, in fact, it IS a danger to be dealt with and not only the paranoid delusions of some frantic CIA operative working 20 hours a night in the bowels of the intelligence labs, a la Richard Clarke?? Call it 'having a contigency plan'.
