The attack on Pearl Harbour was very evident to all who had their eyes
open and were not lulled by the percieved invincibility of the mighty
USofA.

911 was exactly the same....and with approximately the same number of
casualties

Fortunately after Pearl, the US had an enemy and a leadership.

After 911, you had a flock of chickens chasing anything that moved.

You may or may not be right Oz. I think the anwer will come from future
historians. The chapter on Iraq is still being written.
