If you look at the pearl harbor attack by the Japanesse Navy & Air forces the president at the time had allowed!! the attack to take place. the national intelligence group knew the japan was going to attack Pearl. they were not sure of the dates they were syre of the coming attack.

Meh.
I've heard all those theories. Don't buy it.
It has all the same problems that most conspiracy theories have... mainly that you take a fairly simple premise (that there are people in the world that don't like the US, and a dozen of them hijacked some planes and attacked us with them, and in our arrogance we missed the clues that would have allowed us to prevent it) and replaces it with a far, FAR more complicated one that involves American government and military hatching an amazingly intricate plan and thousands of people (including the entire press) keeping silent all this time and being involved in elaborate cover-up.
But mainly: I refuse to believe the Bush administration (which proved itself almost totally incompetent in every other regard for 8 years) was at all capable of pulling off such a plan.

That day is when I went from considering joining the military after finishing up college, to being dead certain.
RIP all that died, both in the attack, and all that has followed it.

Osama Bin Laden declared dead.
Finally, the feeling that some sense of justice has occurred.

10 years, and the rights that were taken from the American people in the name of "National Security" have yet to be returned.

Here we are again.
It seems like a different world now.
Hopefully that's a good thing...

Yeah...but I don't think it is. At least we haven't had another incident of this magnitude, though.

Too bad we had an incompetent president that allowed the incident of such magnitude in the first place, and then pissed away trillions of dollars in wars of retaliation for said attacks.

yeah right k_k. al gore would've blown it on global warming, john kerry would've blown it on stupid **** too.
Battle is a pure form of expression. It is heart and discipline, reduced to movement and motion. In battle, the words are swept away, giving way to actions-- mercy, sacrifice, anger, fear. These are pure moments of expression.

R15, your statement is complete Hyperbole. And is exactly the thing I wish politicians would avoid these days when campaigning.
