Eh, maybe Al Qaeda was manily responsible. But without our government paying them or something would it really have just ended at 9/11? If 9/11 was truly a terroristic act then it obviously wouldn't have ended, we could get attacked now. Our government is too busy with their heads up their asses sniffing for money that they dont realize we are still vulnerable. Nothing has changed since 9/11, the war on terror is a joke. It's an absolute joke. The United States will never defeat terrorism as it isn't even a threat, if it was there would be buildings blowing up all over the country.
