Did 9/11 alter our dreams? IMO yes. The U.S government milked the event for all it was worth and used it to turn our dreams into nightmares.

...Except for the military industrial complex. For them, it was a dream come true. Their bottom lines have never been better. How about yours? The Iraq war alone, costs the average American family appr. $275 a month. What exactly are you getting for that money?

Hello homeland security.
Goodbye liberty
Hello preemptive lie-based occupations.
Goodbye morality and decency.
Hello surveillance.
Goodbye privacy.
Hello Gitmo
Goodbye justice
Hello torture
Goodbye human rights
Hello rendition
Goodbye habeus corpus...

Hello??

EXACTLY!

Took the words right out of my mouth.

Fortunately like the USA voters trashed these warmongers and fearmongers in the last elections they will trash them again.
