No, the media is just reporting them all the time.

It is not just “fair”, it is a fact; at least according to recent reports by the US State Department and a consensus of America’s 16 Intelligence Agencies. They both concluded that Americans are less safe and secure than they were before 9/11, and that anti-American terrorist organizations have grown larger, stronger, and are more successful (with more attacks and more deadly attacks) than ever before.

How is reporting the results of US Government studies a bad answer?
I guess you also don’t know that the (then Republican controlled) Congress’ own 9/11 and Prewar Intelligence Reports concluded:
1. There were no terrorists in Iraq before Bush invaded;
2. Hussein did not allow terrorist training camps;
3. Hussein hated al Qaeda before we did;
4. Hussein did not hide al-Zarqawi, he tried to have him arrested, and of course
5. No WMDs or involvement with 9/11.
Or, that invading Iraq was a stupid idea doomed to failure, and that every non-partisan Middle East expert in the world predicted that the most likely outcome of invading Iraq would be a civil war and regional destabilization. (Actually, anyone with the slightest real knowledge of the region knew this to be true.)
The President’s own father knew it and said so in his 1998 book, ‘A World Transformed’. Colin Powell (then Secretary of State) told Dubya, “If you break it [Iraq], then you own it”.
The first Gulf War commander "Stormin" Norman Schwarzkopf knew it, saying that if America invaded Iraq it would be a, “dinosaur in a tar pit”. Hell, even evil Dick Cheney had said it would become a quagmire.
And your information comes from where—two guys that flunked out of college (Rush and Hannity)?

Gary...That was the worst answer ever. Do you live in Iraq or something? TELL ME the last time they attacked US after 9/11?
It's been clear so far god willing.

I think you would be correct in making that statement. Yes.
