And if so, how come? Is it to prevent hysteria (an understandable situation if so) but what I, we don't understand is why an unsuccessful attempt wouldn't be front page news if not only to promote the "good" and success behind the FBI, CIA, NSA, the Patriot Act and such. I am not one to believe in conspiracies but I find it hard to believe that there has not been another attempt on US soil after September 11. I am thankful for no such attacks and love my country but are we being kept in the dark? This was actually dinner conversation initiated by my 16 year old daughter after what she called a "heated debate" in her modern history class.

I am hopeful that the future generation , such as your daughter and my sons , have the ability to be skeptical and not believe every thing they are told at face value . You say you don't believe in conspiracies , yet you unequivocally buy into a theory that 19 middle eastern men took over 4 airliners and without any air defenses successfully smashed them into 3 buildings and a field . Go on google video and google "Thermite" . Watch as the building as something melts away the steel . Fire will not naturally look like a welding torch . And if you realize anything about physics and resistance , you will see that it is impossible for those buildings to fall at free fall speed. They were definitely rigged with explosives .

Your daughter is right of course if there were any they would be reported and there aren't so why? How hard would it be to get over the mexican border buy a gun and start popping away at the yanks? Very easy and yet not one terrorist has done it.
They are reporting lots of thwarted terrorist attacks in Britain because the British public is a lot more intelligent and skeptical than people in the states who only need a flag waved in their face to support the troops (ie Bush and his friends stealing oil). I'm sure these are either fabricated or arrests of nutters who would never get around to doing anything.
Of course there are real terrorists too but they have little chance against the CIA and we all know who is killing more people including civilians, women and children.

It could seem unpolite to refer inmoral behavior as terror within USA.
People are at duty and observing intently while acts upon war are delivered and seen with patience and impetuosity. The dismay some see in criminal prosecution leads only to harassment and gay rights being created for political lobbies all over. So power does give attentive measures to control but does not enact further into communities. Liberties used to be found in measures and decrees, they are now unsought and meak to estate.
Government is not to replace the issues and general search of population, as law is never a proper gift of the land.
People are missing the big picture when peace and nature are seen in contempt, this being a misdemeanor unpunished for the best of money making for politicians who will be seen with respect for lack of bigger robber varons.
Corruption and inmorality rise in America today, and we insist values are not enthusiastic about frantic error. Disrespect is not tolerated, and enemies are easily dismounted within borders and time, not necesity as some of your nationals could see before last heat wave.
Pro Bono.

Some are reported. Some likely do go unreported. The authorities may not wish to expose sources, and they may have numerous other investigations underway that may be compromised.
Of course, there is always the lib angle, making sure these kind of stories get buried back on page 6.

Yes, I believe. I don't get much news of the situation here, Malaysia as I do need to know them a lot. My family do questioning much about the topic in the dinner too. We seems don't get it afterall the unreported details.

I agree with John B and to add that liberally biased media lean toward showing only negative things about this administration.

Because once the media gets involved and blows our cover, the next attack may be successful.

Yes, and the Democrats are to blame for that, they need the votes.
