Possibly because the Islamicists have realized that attacking the US was counterproductive to their cause.
It's because we won't go wobbly.
Exactly... In his memoirs, General Giap admitted that the North Vietnamese Army could have never beaten the US and ARVN forces on the battlefield. He simply had to hold out until the American left and war protestors forced political change, and for the US to abandon the war. Once the US had pulled out of Viet Nam, the north was free to break the agreements they had made, and invade the south. It also allowed the "Killing Fields" of Cambodia to take place, but that's another story.
I believe that you're 100% correct. If the US were attacked again, it would help minimize or even destroy the anti-war efforts here in the US. I mean, look at how even some of the pubbies are surrendering. They realize that all they need to do is wait us out, especially those idiots calling for a "timetable," where once the US pulls out due to political pressure (and failures), and if that happens, they declare that they've beaten the great satan, and we WILL be hit by terrorists, over and over again.
If the US were attacked again, there would be people screaming for action, and our pulling out would disappear from the options on the table. And I pray that one of those options is to get really brutal with them. To actually fight a war how it was meant to be fought: Until the enemy is completely defeated.

Yes, and possibly because President Bush told the Saudis to pass on to the bint Ladin clan that any further attacks on the United States by Islamofacists will cause this administration to declare Islam to be an organized criminal activity rather than a religion and will result in the immediate wiping of Mecca and Medina from the face of the earth.
Possibly because the mayor of London has allowed the radical Muslim clerics to operate openly in London, even invited them to hold a meeting of clerics that lead Fatwahs in London. We don't allow the terrorist supporters to operate quite so openly.
That and Osama has been dead since late 2001.
