Those of you old enough to remember the shock and horror of September 11, answer me this: If I had told you that the George W. Bush’s anti-terror policies would be so effective that after that terrible day jihadist terrorists would kill only three Americans on U.S. soil for the remainder of his term, would you judge his policies a success, or would you call him an "idiot" and hold him and his foreign-policy team in "complete contempt?"

Huh?

How many Americans were killed by "jihadist terrorists" on U.S. soil before 9/11?

Exactly what I asked.

They’d hoped poisoned gas would kill those fleeing the building but the bomb burned it up.

They’d hoped to topple the WTC onto surrounding buildings.

But it was a precursor to the 2001 attack and the plotter got to see his goal accomplished.

I suspect I know what you're implying but it ain't gonna work. 9/11 occurred less than eight months after Bush took office so if you're gonna cast blame then look to his predecessor.........

The point of the article is to point out how none were killed by jihadis on President GW Bush’s watch AFTER 9/11. The others to which you refer didn’t happen on Bush’s watch. On that score the author is correct.
