Bush said it is. What is the evidence? Has terrorism decreased?

I'm kind of looking for evidence that terrorist attacks have decreased and are less frequent, less likely, etc. worldwide. Seems I hear every day of somebody blowing people up. Define "safer" if we're so much safer.

The border is wide open, the ports aren't checked, the government has lost track of over 600,000 detaines, the war has created more terrorists...
I could go on and on
No we aren't safer

We are not safer than we were in 2001. We are more alert than we were then, however, we are setting ourselves up for another attack. And because we're consistently giving up little civil rights for "security" when we really need it the most, we won't have it. Once they're gone, they're gone for good. Don't let anyone tell you any different.

The world is not safer than it was in 2001.
Terrorist attacks are daily in Iraq, nor has the military got total control of the situation.

We are safer, OF COURSE. No informed person would think differently.
BUT WE ARE NOT SAFE.
The Democrats are making us LESS SAFE every day.
They are concerned with the comfort of terrorist prisoners.
And the Democrats are worried about Terrorists losing some of their freedoms.
Freaks.

The answer is self evident - just think of how secure we were before 9/11 woke us up.
Of course we're safer.

the world won't be any safer until the terrorists are destroyed like the soviet union was.even then we won't be safe because safety can't be guaranteed.
