Oh, and two other questions. You stated above:
"My hope is that eventually the terrorist attacks will be taken seriously for what they are, and that public pressure will lead to policies that effectively will reduce the terrorist threat, and not increase it."
5. What do you mean by "taken seriously for what they are" - what are they, in your opinion?
and
6. What policies, in your opinion, will reduce the terrorist threat? (Apparently reducing the number of terrorists is not part of your plan, since President Bush is already doing that.)
These are serious questions, and I hope you answer them; I and others would like to know your viewpoint.
