Other poster in another thread wrote...<br /><br />"we haven't had any attempts by terrorist in since 9/11."<br /><br />So, I'm curious where the information is posted on all attempted terrorist attacks, so I can peruse it, of course it will be a very short list, since this person knows that our country hasn't been the subject of an attempted attack since 9/11.<br /><br />How would someone know that, I mean really :confused: <br /><br />That is a pretty bold statement, I wonder if it's true :rolleyes:

The evidence of nothing is the absence of evidence of anything, KRS.<br /><br />I think there have been plans and conspiracies to attack, but none have actually been pulled off. A number of baddies are languishing in the slammer contemplating the error of their ways.<br /><br />There was the guy trying to bring a carload of explosives in from Canada, the guy with the bomb in his shoe trying to blow up an airplane. I'm sure there are others that haven't made the 5 o'clock news.

I'm sure there are many. Some may never be released as they provide an impetus for others who are thinking of plots.<br /><br />JB, I think your sentence "the evidence of nothing is the absence of evidence of anything" is one of the most sage things I've ever read... maybe someday I'll understand it :) <br /><br />I believe that just because we (the citizens of the US) haven't heard news of an attempt, doesn't mean there hasn't been one or several.<br /><br />txswinner, I too am glad that person was caught, and W had the unenviable task of being President while the revamping of airport security took place, a very unpopular change in the eyes of many people, but one that I am thankful for.

And then there's the guy with a medical condition that was gunned down in the airport skyway. Seems the Gubbermint version doesn't jive with eyewitneeses in this "Terrorist" attack. Ataboy George
