No they couldn't come sooner because the United States stopped a previous Al Qaeda attempt to hijack and crash 11 US airliners led by a man named Ramzi Yousef.

10,000+ illegal immigrants cross our border every day but somehow AQ members couldn't get in the country? And the attempt before that to topple the twin towers, in 1993, failed.

Wasn't Yousef the mastermind of the 93 attack?

And while the attack failed in its goal of toppling the towers, the attack was successful in that they were able to pull it off.

And I would like more information on Yousef being foiled in his attempt to hijack 11 airliners. Please provide.
