1. Given It's Over Ten Years Since the Illegal Invasion of Iraq...

it's quite amazing we haven't seen more of this here in the US and sooner than the Boston Marathon bombings. I just have to wonder if perhaps our good folks in the FBI and CIA have helped prevent some attacks and that fact has never made it to the public because it's probably better that the public not know. Given the reaction of people to the bombing and the desire of so many to go on vigilante hunts for the perpetrators and the media's fanning of those flames I could understand keeping thwarted attacks under raps. I believe it would be in the best interest of the country's safety to do so.
