It doesn't matter if the likelihood that you're going to be blown up by a terrorist is extremely unlikely. It's that someone out there means you harm, and will strike when you do not expect it. But that's a lie. No terrorist is ever going to kill me. Or you. Statistically speaking, that statement is as true as saying "you are not going to drown in a bathtub". Look, I can die by accident in any of a billion ways. An accidental death is much much more likely than being killed by terrorists. So again, why should I care about people who are far far less dangerous to me than traffic accidents? Al Qaeda's policy goals are the bankruptcy and disruption of western civilization....Al Qaeda and the Taliban are actually, by and large, succeeding at their goals. I see a contradiction here. Also, I don't think you're correct in describing Al Queda's goals at all; do you have a source? Also, I'm still unclear on what point you were trying to make about McVeigh....
