because almost all of the resources that should be devoted to preventing future terrorist attacks against U.S. targets have been diverted to fighting the war in Iraq. In fact, I think this may be one of the reasons the September 11 attack was so successful. I think Bush was already planning to invade Iraq in the summer of 2001 and as a result a lot of the intelligence resources that might have helped to prevent the attack were busy planning for an attack on Iraq.
