Of course the WTC cost $billions and after the fact, even a modest
application of better security would have more than paid for
itself.


Just some decent border security would have helped.
IIRC,some of those 9-11 guys had overstayed their visas.


Overstayed?, I guess so...wasn't it Atta who was sent a renewal
request for some visa related papers several weeks after 911? (or
was someone jerking chains?).

I for one think it's a God damned shame that we need to change
from the innocent life that we led a few years ago to one filled
with suspicion, security checks, wandings, shoe inspections and
similar personal intrusions just to pay for some religious
zealots beliefs.

I certainly have nothing against what some people want to believe
UNTIL IT IMPACTS ME and MINE. You don't like freedom?...then stay
out of free countries. Certainly don't cry when you get your
fingers slapped for forcing your views on others thousands of
miles away.

Well,we now know that 9-11 was not the first attack on the US,there was the
first WTC bombing,two US embassies bombed,the Khobar Towers bombing,and the
USS Cole bombing.

Albert Einstein once wrote that "the world is a dangerous place to live,
not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't
do anything about it."

I guess we know where you stand.
