Complacency Kills
Reader comment on item: Al Qaeda Website Posts Call To Attack Water Supply

I agree that America has once again become complacent. Recently in the town in which I reside, public outcry resulted from the Police Department announcing that they would be "hardening" the Police Operations Center with a wall surrounding it. The comments regarding this, the lack of knowledge about radical Islam and terrorism in general was sickening. As was the fact that most people who commented on the newspaper article were "confident" that our city of 300,000 plus was is no danger from a terrorist attack. Even with 5 military installations in, or very near.

What the public gains from Foxnews, CNN, and other news sources does not serve a purpose other than reporting on specific events. What the people need to hear is the underlying cause and effect that has brought radical Islam to this point and the dangers that it poses to the West. And if I may be a bit biased here; more specifically to the United States.
