No September 11th wasn't the beginning of terrorism, but unfortunately a continuation of global phenomenom that has been going on since before the Roman Empire.
Psst... the greatest attacks against Churchill was for his political "flip-flopping" and accusations made against his military service (that he inflated tales of heroism or danger)... funny you should hold to him as an example.

Actually first of all, you're Canadian and not American. You have absolutely no voice in our elections nor our party politics.
Second of all this was discussed in Giuliani's speech. He discussed how Europe and the world was soft on terrorism and had allowed it to grow. They only fought it when it was directed at them and only them. The two examples given by Giuliani of the olympics and the achilles ship are good examples.
And again I didn't bring up Churchill, that was brought up in a speech. And yes they talked ill of him too. I don't care about Canadian politics but I am sure you can talk with other Canadians about your own politics at this time. Thanks.
