> Show me an attack that's happened in the last 10 years.

Off the top of my head, there was that incident at LAX where some guys shot up the El Al ticket counter, another shooting rampage at Fort Hood, and a third at the DC Holocaust Museum. I believe that more can be found if one were to look, I'm just doing this from memory.

Your statement that security in the US is high is absurd. There are so many holes that it's ridiculous. We're protecting certain things, but ignoring others. If somebody wants to create terror in the US, it would be trivial to blow up an airport security line (those places get awfully crowded), pull of a Mumbai-style shooting rampage of hotels or shopping malls, or even blow up or hijack a plane by taking advantage of the many ways into the "sterile" area in airports that don't pass through the TSA.
