30. Cause the excuse for it was that our defense and intelligence sucks |

despite the billions of dollars spent, and thousands who work in the various agencies, we never saw it coming...
even though:
- we had 50+ warnings - several countries (Germany, Egypt, Israel, etc..) relayed warnings prior to 9/11 - we had suspects in custody before the event - lots of "chatter" - Richard Clarke said things were so "hot" that he canceled all NY staff meetings - Ashcroft was warned about taking flights - JEB activating Marshall Law on 9/7/01
and there is so much more...
