Evildoers rounded up

3 Held Overseas in Plan to Bomb New York Target - New York Times

Someone I worked with insisted that there weren't any plots against America by Jihiadis being intercepted by the FBI, CIA, DHS, and other expensive acronyms. His explaination for why there hadn't been any successful attacks on American soil since 9/11 wasn't that competent, vigilant defenders had prevented them but that that nobody was actually attempting to do so.
I shit you not.
This wasn't some deranged paranoid schizophrenic either. A well-educated decent human being actually believes that nobody on this planet hates Americans enough that they would attempt to bomb, behead, shoot, stab, run over with Jeeps, or otherwise wish to harm us.
You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him think, err, drink.
