Perhaps the reason for no further attacks upon the US has been that the West has over-estimated the capability of Al-Quida to begin with. Al Quida is not a giant network of well organised guerillas, but a loose collection of people who share an idea and extreme drive to hurt the west. When Afghanistan was attacked, they lost the training ability too. I'm not saying the threat is gone, but it's not on the scale we imagine it to be.


Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
