Okay, so we ignored Mossad, we ignored a phone call from an informant, and we ignored the FAA. Who do you suppose our government listened to prior to this event? Anyone?

My level of bile is rising again.

If this is true, heads SHOULD roll at the CIA. Dealing with terrorists is a 24 hour-a-day, 365 day-a-year job with the Mossad, so you would think they might know what they are talking about.

200 terrorists? So there were 20 killed in the attack, we have arrested what around 20-30 more? So there are about 150 out of this cell out there ready to attack. Is another attack imminent?

Every once in a while I read in the paper about a crime being committed at a "known" crack house. In the details of this story I find a similar idea. This "officer" of Bin Ladin has a bank account and used money from it, etc...

My question is, if we knew he had a bank account why didn't we just shut it down? Sort of like if it's a known crack house, why don't we raid it? Maybe I'm too simple of a guy for this modern world.

Our government was effectively redistributing our wealth, protecting the right to kill unborn babies, militarily involved in over 100 countries around the world - and the one THE ONE thing they are supposed to be doing - namely defending our nation - they failed at.

Make no mistake we were attacked, and we must stand together and support our government and our troops in the war ahead, but let's not be blind here. We are in this position because they failed at the one legitmate task they were constitutionally given, while effectively persuing activities that they are constitutionally prohibited from undertakeing.

And the socialists are drooling over the prospect of easily moveing their agenda forward - gun control, national ID card, etc. Again we must stand together and fight, but we MUST protect the freedoms we are fighting for. Any liberty lost now is gone for all the days of the Republic.

200 - 19 = 181.

Where are they?

[RedBloodedAmerican]

From FOXNews:

"As of Monday, the FBI had detained 49 people in connection with the case -- double the number of several days ago -- on immigration violations. Some have asked for lawyers, and none have been charged in the attacks that may have killed more than 5,000 people.

In addition, authorities are looking for nearly 200 other people to question in last Tuesday's attacks.

Additional detail emerged Monday about one of the hijackers and possible associates

Looks like the are taking their advice.

After every big intel blunder, everybody starts going over the details, finding out what they "ignored." There's a difference between "ignored" and "missed" or "considered and rejected."

Don't get me wrong; I think the CIA is due for a serious enema. But don't blame them for being overwhelmed with data and underfunded.
