        $2.8 trillion was spent, and now in addition to AlQaeda and Taliban, we have ISIS and Nusra. Afghanistan is still a mess, add Libya, Syria, Iraq and Yemen to the mix.

        While more children have been killed by firearms domestically since 9/11 than all terror deaths at home and US combat deaths in Afghanistan and Iraq - COMBINED. #GunReformNow #EnoughIsEnough

        “Solving 9/11 ends the war on terror,” argues @Bollyn_CL. You have to see the reality to know how to defeat terrorism.

        Hey WSJ! Are the guys in your pic actors from an apocalyptic action flick? If not, and bona fide law enforcement personnel, bin Laden is winning.
