To say an attack on American soil, via the airlines or otherwise was unforeseeable, denies the facts of the matter and history. Just becasue we didn't get a fax from Bin Ladin stating the time, place, and method of attack doesn't mean it was unforeseeable.

Not according to Louis Freeh, maybe Clarke, who also said he was the only one in the Clinton administration that was worried about Al Queda, but the Bush adminstration did start doing something. Now he's the only one in the Bush administration that was worried about Al Queda, and it was the Clinton administration that was doing something? Sounds like the boy wants to be the lone voice in the wilderness crying out, no matter which wilderness it is.
