Why America Hasn’t Been Attacked Since 9/11

Over at Slate:
Slate has just published a special series from Timothy Noah about why America hasn’t been attacked since 9/11.
For over six weeks, Noah studied literature and interviewed terrorism experts about why the dire predictions of a 9/11 sequel proved untrue.
He concludes that it’s impossible to answer with certainty, but he comes up with eight theories — ranging from mildly mundane to deeply disturbing — on why we haven’t been attacked.

Beginning today and over the next seven days, Noah will explain one theory a day. Today he examines the “Terrorists-Are-Dumb” theory.


Make sure to check them out every day.
