Which brings me back to a past topic, perhaps much of the reaction was because America itself had never been attacked before by external forces. Perhaps many Americans were complacent in the belief there was no threat to them, and that because many Americans tend to adhere to an Amerocentric view of what is happening in the world, and that indicated very much on this forum alone. Perhaps 9/11 was a rude awakening that American soil is the target of others, just like many other countries in the world, but perhaps the reason many Americans were so complacent is also partly due to the fact America is so vast, hell, some of your states are bigger than many other countries, you are a country made up of many countries, the states as they used to be.
Now one may wonder why America it seems is so on the ball with regards security as compared to many other countries who look upon America and think are they paranoid or what, perhaps America is paranoid and that because they have realised their power and might is not loved by everyone and there are people with the ability and desire to attack American soil despite the fact that America is so militarily powerful. You can field massive armies with devastating firepower, but can you stop the lone terrorist hiding and moving around amongst the populace, for that one can cause more damage mentaly than anything you can field and that because other nations have a memory of war on their soil, they are used to it, where you are not, and that I believe is why your government sets up such institiutions as the TSA. It is to all intents and purposes a paranoid reaction to threat that can be just one person, when if ever they come that the rest of you must undergo the pat to ensure you are not they, but I do understand the pat is a case of shutting the door after the horse has bolted, for anyone that desires to attack American soil again will do so and totally circumvent what is in place that hinders you. But they of the grope and feel, I wonder, have they found any with anything that could be terrorist inspired yet.
But of the terrorist, they have won, they have destabilised America, you are to all intents and purposes turning upon yourselves, as you are all now suspect of each other and that indicated by such things as PA finds, TSA to do the searches at aschool prom, you are losing your liberty and starting to understand how life is for many others in the world, perhaps even the homelands of those who attacked your country with what became known as 9/11, but as an observation, isn't 911 your telephone emerency call, if it is, the atrocity that 9/11 will be etched in your minds forever?
