Take note GOP:

New York Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said the Times Square plot was the 11th thwarted attack on New York City since hijacked airliners destroyed the World Trade Center's twin towers on September 11, 2001, killing more than 2,600 people.

2. meanwhile since 9/11 3,600.00 Americans have died from tobacco related illnesses

tobacco use is the real terrorist but there is NO war on that because the military cannot make enuff money from it.
