US had knowledge of Al Qaida Threat, Expert Says....(for a Decade the article says~~!) I've known about it for over 14 years myself... But the reality is that few could foresee the severity, nor the depth of planning, ingenuity, and resources at the militants disposal. We keep thinking car bombs.. suicide bombs, dirty bombs, and, worst case, biological bombs.. We're a vulnerable society because we're open. And open societies have to accept that the risk of terrorism exists. But as someone who's been affiliated with security related issues over the period, I'm the last person to advocate sacrificing our fundamental freedoms in the name of creating a "Fortress Amerika".. Which is why I'm glad that Bush is taking the battle to the enemy's home turf.. And hopefully they will straighten out this post-war boondoggle and understand that winning the war is often easy. It's winning the peace, or at least keeping your enemies off balance, that's difficult. Hawk
