That's true, but you have to ask yourself
WHY did the INS let these people stay in the country and then lose track of them, and
WHY did airport security let them onto planes with weapons?
Could it be because no one ever really suspected we were in any real danger?
I believe America was asleep at the wheel then, and asleep at the wheel now.
