Lucky or smart --- or both.
Click here: CNN.com - What we have learned since 9/11 - Sep 3, 2006
I don't have the full text, but apparently unremarked-upon is the the near-incredible fact that the U.S. has not been hit again by the Islamo-jihadist-fascist-terrorists.
Much scorn has been dumped upon the Homeland Security Agency, the DSA, the CIA and --- and at the top of the list --- the the incumbent President of the U.S. of A.
Let us not delude ourselves that we are safe from terrorism.
When I worked at the LBJ White House I came to know many of the Secret Service agents. To a man (and a few women) they said that if a person was willing to give up his/her life it was very hard to protect the President.
Rolling a hand grenade into a sidewalk cafe' takes neither high-technology nor brilliant execution.
It hasn't happened for almost five years.
We are lucky and smart.
In what order?

Shh... don't tell anyone. It seems to be working
