9/11 (Please, no "Truther" posts)

[Cynic Hero '86]

I was at school just having begun sophomore year in high school when 9/11 happened. Most of us assumed that we would be going in all out militarily after 9/11. Had a WW2-style mobilization been order shortly after that day; I am convinced we would have accepted rationing/war bonds just like in WW2. Regarding the 4T, the decision to wage a limited war after the attacks was the first domino to fall in the slide of the decline to the current state of affairs.
