OP, I misread what you said about being how you felt about terrorism. My fault. Obviously there were failures of intelligence beforehand.One can only hope that the professionals will learn from past mistakes and fix what was broke. I still believe that going on the offensive in the case, at least temporarily, is the best defense. Just my opinion.
Shakran, I don't understand the first part of your post. Obviously there was a failure pre-911; defenses have been bolstered post-9/11. The 9/11 Commission concluded - and I completely agree with this characterization - that there was a "lack of imagination" in identifying - and thus preventing - 9/11. Who on earth could have imagined that suicidal maniacs would fly jets into skyscrapers?? It was a paradigm shift in what was thought possible.
