The original poster asked a reasonable question and I was hoping
that someone such as yourself on active duty would've provided a
reasonable answer by now.


The original poster was a mindless troll. His question, far from
reasonable, cannot be answered as it assumes something to be true that is
not.



Since I am not in the military I can only
speculate but it's obvious that the USAF dropped the ball on 9/11
BIG time!


How so?



Don't get me wrong, I realize that after the wall came down in 1989
the USAF didn't have fighters sitting at the ready all over the U.S.
pre-armed with missiles and pilots just waiting to shoot down domestic
airliners that have been hijacked by "Islamic ****s" ($1 to Juvat).


Nor did the USAF have fighters sitting at the ready all over the U.S.
pre-armed with missiles and pilots just waiting to shoot down domestic
airliners before the wall was opened in 1989.



Having said that, to this day I too am confounded by the apparent
ineptness of the USAF (and especially the American intelligence
community) both of whom utterly failed to prevent the apocalyptic
death and destruction of 9/11.


What was the USAF failure with regard to 9/11?
