Clinton made the USA a joke...9-11 was the result.
Even on 9-11 the bad guys had to adopt a plan that resulted in their death to succeed. And Bush had been in office 8 months. I'd say your original comment could be construed to belittle the efforts of a whole lot of former military. I am now sure you didn't mean that.

Humbly sent!
There is something so moving about still photographs that video will never capture. The ability to study just one spot in time before it is gone. I love these threads.
Along with everything else, look out for the lines.
