Nobody deserves to die like that. Absolutely terrifying.

The world changed that day.
...
You reap what you sow, and some insane bastards planted some very deep seeds.

If the U.S. played by the same rules as the bat-shit insane extremists who planned 9/11, three quarters of the world would be charred and black. The United States did not change the rules - a bunch of insane Saudis did. After 9/11, America decided it wanted its ball back - and now its going to take its sweet fucking time retrieving it.

What the fuck did you think was going to happen? Did you ever actually think that the fucking United States of America would idly stand by (Oh, that's ok! Let's enter negotiations!) after a number of its citizens dove 1,200 feet to their deaths because they didn't want to die in a fire?

Now we live with the fallout and the consequences. If I was in charge when 9/11 happened, I would have done things to the world that President Bush probably never even dreamed of in his worst nightmares.

tl;dr: The U.S. didn't start this shit, but - one way or another - they're gonna finish it.
Pretty friggin crazy to think they weren't awakening a giant. Then again, whiten al Quaeda attacked a US warship, the USS Cole, Clinton doesn't reasons at all. He didn't even so much as TALK tough, so maybe al Quaeda really believed they could atyack is at will. The first time they bombed the world trade center, Clinton forbade the CIA from looking into it, ordering the FBI to release nothing to the intelligence community and treat it strictly as an ordinary crime perpetrated by just a few individuals. Perhaps, given those responses, it was reasonable to think that once again we would do nothing more than put a couple of disposable terrorist foot soldiers in jail.
