What I remember is that almost all of those 911 maniacs were Saudis who were here on expired visas. It would've made more sense to keep Afghanis and Saudis out of the US than to get involved there.
We must always be on a covert offensive posture. Sitting in a continuous defensive posture didnt work well with Chamberlain and doesnt work well today either
Remember when W said we must take the war to them? How many more Muslims are there in the US now than on 9/11/2001? I would guess it is a whole lot more.
