You are confusing association with causation. How many times were we attacked before 9/11/01?

Huh? Over 100 marines in Lebanon? The first world trade center bombing?
The USS Cole? Two embassy attacks in Africa? What the hell do you think the cause for these attacks was? Do you think that the fact they haven't been repeated since 9/11 shows that the avowed enemy have just given up.
Appeal to fear is a pathetic description of reality. As I posted some here don't realize the fact that we have an enemy vowing to destroy us. We are at war! Thus we need to exploit what intelligence we can get before the fact. Not sit on our duffs and bitch about civilian rights being violated when there is no evidence, as you admit, thAT ANY SUCH RIGHTS HAVE BEEN VIOLATED!
