OBL declared war on us in 1998. That is a fact. Then his
attacks increased in their ferocity until the 9/11 attack.

If it wasn't for a change in Administrations in the White
House, we would have continued to react to OBL's declared
war as a criminal activity - And OBL would have continued
to attack us with impunity - Clinton's serious policy
mistake probably allowed 9/11 to occur.

Instead, on 9/11, President Bush decided that this is a
war & reacted appropriately.

Your revisionist POV may allow you to hold a faulty POV.
It doesn't however, jive with what happened in the real
world.

"That one occurrence is what's at issue. Osama could
have kept up the second and third tier harassment until he
ran out of steam and, while it would have been sad, it
really wouldn't have mattered in the grand scheme of
things."
