Yes, the terrorists attacked The World Trade Center. They also attacked the Pentagon, which is the nerve center of our military. Did our military crumble to pieces? The bravery of a few prevented a fourth plane from hitting its intended target, which has since been determined as the US Capitol. That would have been an attack on our way of governing. Has our government collapsed?

If we were truly going after the man behind these extremists, then wouldn't we have been best served going after Osama bin Laden and the Afghan government that was sheltering him? If so, then why was our military concentration diverted from Afghanistan to Iraq? President Bush himself admitted that the information he received was wrong. Why can't you?
