Al Franken, 'Why did our country become 'insecure' in the first place?'

[dArKeR]

I listen to Al and even his guests talked about this and that and terrorism and security. The upcoming election question, 'are we more secure now than we were before' is the main question...

Is even Al and NSA MOLE?

Why shouldn't the question be, 'Why has this situation manifested in the first place?' Is it possible Power Elite are stealing from the poor countries of the world? Is it possible the US is supporting puppet dictators in the Middle East whose abused citizens are revolting against this abuse sponsored by the US? Or are all these terrorists plotting to kill just for the fun of it?

2. Just guessing,

but what happened on 9/11 may have played a part.
