SHALL I PINPOINT the pinnacle of all of the above? SEPT 11 2001...is when we,as a people,willing waived
our responsibilities to oversee our government.. SECURITY above all else,including freedom. The governmental guidance became MORE corrupt, WITH our consent...SECURITY,yes that is what we
want,whatever it takes. The ultimate loss was baked into the future.

From my understanding (researching alot when it happened), Osama wanted the USA out of his country and
felt it was an unholy situation. The surprise,according to the book by a former CIA agent, Osama was
totally surprised and taken back,HE DID NOT EXPECT OR ANTICIPATE THAT THE TWIN TOWERS
would totally collapse upon themselves. He wanted a "big show",but when it became a catastrophic
cause of death and destruction he praised ALLAH that the endeavor was beyond his wildest dreams.it was
a "gift"....and he was ecstatic....AGAIN,when U read "confessions of an economic hitman'' there were
valid (from Osama's pov) reason's for the attack.

9/11 was an important point but I do see this ebb and flow. For instance right now, our fear of Islamic terror is much less. China, IMO, is a much more pressing concern. They are almost as good at spying on Americans as the NSA and Google.
