Abstract: In 2007, The Heritage Foundation became the first and only organization to track thwarted terrorist attacks against the United States. That year, Heritage reported that at least 19 publicly known terrorist attacks against the United States had been foiled since 9/11. Today, that number stands at 50. The fact that the United States has not suffered a large-scale attack since 9/11 speaks to the countrys counterterrorism successes. But, one year after the death of Osama bin Laden, the long war on terrorism is far from over. Reviewing the terrorist plots that have been foiled since 9/11 can provide valuable information for understanding the nature of the threat, as well as best practices for preventing the next attack. The U.S. must also be ready to adapt its security strategiessuch as to counter terror attacks by an increasing number of homegrown terrorists.

Obama will take direct credit for all of this just as he is using BJ Clinton to shill for him in a campaign commercial saying the Obama killed Bin Laden single handedly.
Obamas Gutsy Bin Laden Call
April 27, 2012
By Lonely Conservative
Bill Clinton the man who let Osama Bin Laden get away appeared in a new Obama campaign ad saying that if Mitt Romney was president Bin Laden would still be alive. (As a side note, during the 2008 primary Obama accused Clinton of using Bin Laden to score political points.) So, its kind of funny that on the same day the ad came out a memo was uncovered documenting Obamas gutsy call.

The war on terror is over.
It has been replaced by the war on America.

How many of these plots were caught by TSA agents?
On the other hand, several involved threats to subway systems in DC and NY; I don’t think the TSA had anything to do with those arrests.
Well thank goodness all these efforts have paid off finally now that the terror threat is over. HUH? When did that happen? Must have been a decree put out by uncle obie. That’ll take care of it.
Helping keep mankind warm for almost 65 years.
Gutsy only in the sense that he was two steps from having the runs while watching what the admiral had put in to action. Probably had to change his panties when it was over. Not likely he borrowed the Hils boxers.

“How many of these plots were caught by TSA agents?”
Only the 4 year olds and the great-grandmothers in wheelchairs.
How many were *thwarted* by the TSA? I couldn’t find any...if someone does, please let me know. THX.
Exactly right...
