What a staggeringly naive article. The USA doesn't face any appreciable risk of terrorism? Love your books, but geez.

The article doesn't take into account foiled terrorist plots. The lack of deaths is a testament to law enforcement.

terrorism is a phantom threat in the US because it's hard for most terrorists to even get here.
-
we have huge oceans that separate us from our most dangerous enemies. Flying into this country unchecked is difficult
-
therefore the terrorist threat may be very real, but we have succeeded so far because of preventive measures taken
-
the question then becomes "What if we loosen those measures?" What if we let our guard down? Do we dare risk that?

The men who killed 4000 on 9/11 could have been kept out if we had common sense.

The point is that it's a statistically irrelevant threat, compared to others. Countermeasures are disproportionate.

People aren't afraid of terrorism. They're afraid, rightly, of long term trends in demographics and cultural beliefs.
