Why Do You Think The Usa Hasn't Had a Major Terrorist Attack Since 9/11 ?
It's not because our security is stopping them. If they really wanted to they could very easily.

Come On Conspiracy Theorists........... we need a good answer here :thumbsup

because we're still expecting one.

They are relying on our own fears to do the job for them.

But I'm sure they'll be back...


{{insert evil Vincent Price laughter}}

nah, not valid

What are you waiting for one to happen or something?

Thats like waiting for a stroke or heart attack....you just hope it never happens, but assume one day it probably will in your 70's

shh dont remind them

Because Bush is too busy counting the money that he is making from hiw war on oil. Uhhh. I mean terror.

1. They are already winning the war. We as a country are changing and turning against our very own rights as citizens.
2. They operate on an all together time line. They have no reason to rush. They can and are willing to wait years between attacks. Lovely how it works.

matter of time

Terrorism continues to happen everyday and I guess it will here again as well. Maybe not as big, maybe bigger. BTW the Anthrax Mail Killings were after 9/11. Everybody forgets about the Anthrax attacks.

I just hope they never bother the Olympics.

I like the Olympics.

That fool used to own a baseball team. I doubt he is so anxious to have to result to shady tactics just to add more money to his already very large fortune...

No, not waiting for one and I hope it never happens but i'm just doing the math. If they were pissed enough at us to crash planes into the twin towers before the war you would think they would be 5 times as pissed now. It just seems like they would have tried something by now. That's all I'm saying :2 cents:

Cauz they don't need to do anything, everybody is scared shitless

Not so much anymore but I know what ya mean. It's sorta like showing up to summer camp on the first day and the biggest guy there says "ok at some point during the next two weeks my friends and I are going to beat the shit out of you but don't worry you will be alseep when i happens" :winkwink:

I am sure Cheney has a whole list of terrorist attacks he might create.

I would be awake, with a sawed-off shottie under the blanket. :D

who knows.....nobody

Bush doesn't need to be re-elected.

Because moses has come down from the skies and protected us

Because Osama and Bush are old college buddies

How often are we SUPPOSED to have major terrorist attacks?

I think "terrorists" have been attacking us nearly every day. There's how many thousand Americans dead in Iraq?

I meant on USA soil

When his daddy was president, they gave him like 2% to "run" things as a figurehead. Kinda like things are now.

You're gonna be paying royalties on that soon.

I guess for the same reason it took so many years between the first WTC attack and thhe one in 2001.

Time, planning, time, planning, time...
I prey it does not happen, but It will be all of the above if they do.

Thay have had 5 years, it's not a time issue. They have had plenty of times and plenty of opportunity. Our ports are barely guarded and the security in this country is a joke.

And there were 8 years between each WTC attack, and according to the "pubs" we were much less protected then...LOL

I'm not scared shitles, If it happens it happens. If it does happen again we will probably turn that shit hole into a parking lot.

They operate on a calendar of centuries. We operate on timeframes of a few months to a few years.

Al qaeda has a history of taking several years to plan an attack. If and when they attack us again they will need or want to top the last attack. Topping 9-11 is going to be a tough job, so it would likely be a chemical attack or a dirty bomb in a major city.

So it's unlikely that we would ever be subject of a small attacks like bus bombings and so on, unless it's was some massive multi bus coordinated bombings.

The only smaller type of attack I could see being worthwhile for them would be an attack on New York's subways. Several small bus type bombings on the Subways could have the effect of 9-11 in means of shutting down the city.

if there is another attack people are so scared to be protected ,they will enact martial law.That will more scary then the attack it self.

I thought everyone knew the answer to this.

They, al quaida and the islamic radicals, don't give a fuck about the united states.

They want to establish an islamic empire. They only really care about seizing power in the middle east.

The 9/11 attack's purpose was to radicalize the islamic nations, and it is working just fine. They think they are winning.

When they need to turn up the heat, they will attack again. But probably first in europe, where there is a bigger, more dissatisfied islamic population to get riled up.

The US isn't their enemy, the royal families, rulers, and secret police of the islamic states are their enemy.

We're just a tool in their game.

Someone already said this but..

1993 - WTC bombing
2001 - WTC destruction

Took them 8 years to get their shit together for another attack. I can't stand when people comment that we haven't had another attack given the above.

While this administration is busy doing cosmetic security changes, they leave the ports, chemical plants and commercial airline cargo WIDE OPEN. What's going to be our excuse next time?

It's impossible to protect against acts of terrorism. Sure, decent intelligence may help, and feet on the ground would help. But.. doubt anyone is that good to get inside a cell and have access to much info - that's why there are cells.

Hate to say it, and it's probably too much for folks to "accept" on the US side especially after 9/11, but if you listen to anyone who has been fighting terrorism for decades, they will say "cool it" and try and see where the attackers are coming from and why. By acting in X way, this can just provoke more anger or whatever and cause more deaths.

There have been guys heading the fight against Etta, IRA etc and they are slowly "winning" by changing tactics. Tho there never were or will be "winners".

Who knows why the US has never had another hit, but there is no hurry with terrorism. The only folks hurrying are the people who were attacked. And.. if these folks are spending billions on "defenses" and devoting substantial resources to fighting the hidden enemy - hell, terrorism is succeeding nicely and no reason for further attacks at this time. It may not even be the US the next time round - there's a whole world to choose from.

Ya can't stop anyone who is determined to cause havoc, - it's too easy - so just live on and don't let assholes change your way of life.

Because Bush doesn't need anymore positive press. He was already re-elected.

'cause we're america...fuck yeah!!!

Not joking shermsshack, but got little doubt that was a consideration among probably 1000's of others. They "know" George and the way he will react. And.. meantime, if he just stays on course, I doubt bin Laden will be too unhappy. George is doing the "angry man" and playing with shows of force and using resources - it takes more, or probably a lot less and a change of tactics to have an effective. bin Laden is in a way, guiding George to the drinking bowl.

It was the same with almost all other countries that were the subject of terrorism.

They don't need to come over and attack, the USA shipped 40k+ people to Iraq so the terrorists can kill people in the comfort of their own home.

How many non-military US citizens have died over there since the start of the war?

156K plus a few K of " private contractors "....

I think the reason we didn't have a major attak was becasue al-queda is not strong enough to give a major attack. Plus they have caught a lot of them. And most of the terrorist are focusing on Iraq,

Bush accomplished everything he needed with the first one. Although, we might see a second one come election time so one of his cronies can get into office.

I'm afraid I agree with CD Smith.

Because they won the first time round. The very freedoms the U.S stood for, they have now given up to religious extremists. Only the difference is only the 1% of Americans have realised this. The sheeple & terrorists have won :)

Absolutely right :thumbsup

Because it worked. Al-Qaida's goal was to make the USA more like Saudia Arabia - less freedom for individuals and more power to those who claim to know what God wants. Mission accomplished.

yup, I'd have to agree...




Orrrrrrrr, it could be that when George Bush said "Bring it on." they got scared and called it quits. You know that the middle east is full of history showing that they back down or give up easily (ask Israel how that's working out). I also think that 'taking the fight to them' is working out great :thumbsup


//anyone catch the sarcasm in my tone in that last part?

How many bodies did it take to create the 9/11 incident?

How many bodies would it take to create another?

Very little. It's far too easy.

There are followers of bin Laden all over the world and their recruitment numbers are reckoned to have increased eight fold - tho who really knows? Tho it's not the numbers that count when there is an intention to create major havoc. Fighting on a conventional battlefield needs more bodies than any terrorist needs.

Well let's hope we make it through 2006 without one :upsidedow
