The fact that nearly 20 people tried to hijack planes on 9-11, and succeeded, suggests to me that terrorists were feeling bold enough. I don't know how many times people have tried since then -- actually tried. Do you?
Except for Reid of course.

I was thinking about this yesterday (sorry to interupt whatever the argument is). In Mi a few weeks ago the FBI arrested some middle Eastern guys because they had bought like 80 cellphones and they had pix of the Mackinac Bridge.
Then we let them go, and CAIR and them were saying it was prejudice and profiling or whatever- and supposedly selling cellphones is a cottage industry in ME neighborhoods (why not just go to the store?). So the FBI over reacted.
but it occurs to me that if Atta et al were busted that morning at security- they would have been a dozen of so guys who happened to have some innocent box cutters and some pix of the WTC- BFD.
