We dont negotiate with terrorists, we just pay them up front.

We destabilized the Middle East so the ones responsible for 9/11 aren’t gonna do another 9/11


If Trump hadn’t gone to Iran there would’ve been a 9/11 style attack attributed to Iran

They would find Iranian passports in the ruins when everything else was evaporated


Why not build the whole plane out of Iranian passports amirite???

Better cockpit door locks that can only be opened by the pilots.

One of the arguments for the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq was that we were better off fighting them over there than here.

It blows my mind every time I think about it. New York City went from the largest(Muslim) terrorist attack in history to electing a Muslim mayor in 25 years.make it make sense.

It wasn't exactly an easy operation to pull off. It was even harder when they no longer had Afghanistan as a safe harbor and we had our guard up.

you will never convince me that the TSA and all the hassle we (American citizens) have to endure for a domestic flight has actually prevented anything.


They haven't. They fail like every simulation of someone hiding a bomb or weapon that the govt puts them through

there is one guy in Georgia I saw the other day that was in jail in Jamaica because TSA didn't catch a full clip of bullets in his bag but Jamaica security did

I'm very surprised bombs haven't gone off in crowded areas - stadiums, subways etc.

Even low rent bomb makers in the US are able to make bombs. Imagine if you had the know-how and the technical expertise to make something bigger. Maybe they are waiting on the sidelines for now but they are definitely here.

I can't think of a better way to get a muslim mayor in 25 years later.
