You wish...the middle east will never be blown to pieces like you think it should. 9-11 should have been the time when we took it to Syria and Saudi Arabia. No questions asked.
The only time this country will ever do anything on a drastic scale would be if the death toll was in the hundreds of thousands. 9-11 was not a big enough body count.

"9-11 was not a big enough body count."
If they'd struck the Towers 20 minutes later and 20 stories lower, the body count might even have been big enough for the Democrats to still remember, and if plane number #4 had taken out the Capitol Dome, we probably would have gone after the Saudis. .

Take it easy. We have taken out Afganistan and Iraq. Two years; two countries.
