It seems to me the "systems" differ quite a bit. You obviously think the whole thing is a lot better organized than I do. If they had been better organized there would have been more attacks before now, and there would have been more successful attacks (imo). So while you can believe whatever you want, I do not agree with you.
A group runs 80,000 men through training camps in Afghanistan, and you don't believe they are organized.
There have been many more attacks than the scores that succeed, but they were just prevented, like the attempt to destroy the Eiffel Tower in the late 1980s, and the thrwarted ricin attack in Britain. There have been many others, which all got very brief coverage.
One theme I've noticed in MSM coverage of both Palestinian and Al Qaeda terrorist attacks is to take a 'no harm, no foul' attitude towards all the many attacks that the security services prevent, as if attempted murder was fine and dandy, as long as it didn't succeed. By this logic, if our security services were brilliant enough to thwart all the plans, terrorism wouldn't exist at all. |
