Then and now!

Then :

Ramzi Yousef organized the attack on the World Trade Center in 1993. We did an investigation of where he might be, nabbed him in Pakistan, brought him to justice in the US and he has been in a maximum security prison in Colorado for many years now.

Now :

In contrast, Osama bin Laden organized the attack on the World Trade Center in 2001. We started a war against Afghanistan to capture him but only sent about 15,000 troops in.

Then after we lost him, we got distracted and started another war against a country that had nothing to do with the 9/11 attacks.

Now, we are stuck in the middle of two wars we cannot win as we desperately try to stabilize both of those countries while Osama is sitting comfortably in Pakistan, laughing his ass off i.e. Osama is ROTFLHAO! :-)
