Just get your hands on the 9/11 report and read the parts about the forewarning. Oh, you won't see those because "the Commission refused to hear, ignored, or censored testimony about the many pre-September 11 warnings given to the FBI and US intelligence agencies."

It's very easy to see things clearly when you know exactly what you're looking for.

Or, more succinctly, "hindsight is 20/20".
Just shows how inept that administration was.
Which administration? Nevermind.

What it shows is that, with the benefit of hindsight, you can clearly identify problems, then (hopefully), institute fixes to prevent those problems from occurring again. Sometimes you can't, depending on the nature of the problem--the source is outside your control. All you can do is take measures to mitigate the effects of it. Regardless, people often get confused and think you should have had the same clarity during the events leading up to the tragedy that you have with hindsight. And that's just stupid. It can't happen without clairvoyance.

It took so long to just get abit of the new building rising above the ground. So stupid. America froze itself after 9/11. Refused to rebuild the site and instead it was and arguably still is a gaping whole in lower Manhattan. Really fucking lame. NYC doesn't even want to try people responsible for it because they're scared shitless.

Yeah, real solidarity and bravery right there, bro.
...or maybe we do not want to deal with the major gridlock and spend money on these trials(you know, since the city is practically broke).

Some news anchor did that actually, and people got pissed at him for it.
