One of the memes from the left is that 9-11 could have been prevented.
That is a crock of shit. I will tell you why.
9-11, like Pearl Harbor before it, took advantage of an America off its guard and at peace. We were thinking peacefully, and were also aware that terrorists were out there plotting against us. Like most people, we were quite willing to let things be until it was too late. Human beings simply do things that they have always done, until compelled to change by events.
It is easy in retrospect to connect the dots. The problem is, one can only do that in retrospect.
Be Seeing You,
