"There were no BIG terrorist attack on the U.S. soil before Bush either."
That's absolutely false. Have you forgotten what happened on April 19, 1995? And then there was the bombing of the WTC in February 1993. Seven people were kiled in that attack. However, thousands would have been killed if the attack had gone as planned. According to U.S. District Judge Kevin Duffy during the life-sentencing of several of Ramzi Yousef’s conspirators in that attack, "If the sodium cyanide had vaporized it is clear that what would have happened is that cyanide gas would have been sucked into the North Tower and everyone in the North Tower would have been killed."
"In fact a few were prevented under Clinton."
Can you name one that was prevented?
"The whole argument that we have had no terrorist attack since 9/1 and are safer to justify Bush's failure's is just bull shit."
So al Qaeda has attacked in England,Spain, Indonesia and elsewhere,but it's just plain luck that they have not struck the U.S. again?
"Our invasion of Iraq had not made us safer, but created more enemies in the middle east."
Can you prove that statement?
"Iraq is now run by religious zeolots."
Absolutely false.
