A new era of heightened alertness:

Since the attempted bombing of the Detroit flight on Christmas time, it has come to everybody consciousness that we are now in a new era of a never ending war. Eight years after 9/11, we are still nowhere near to finding the main actors behind the attacks and from Afghanistan, this global fight against America and also western countries is nowhere to its logical conclusion.

It is a sad situation but it is a truth that a sense of safety that we used to feel while traveling abroad as an American has become an illusion since our sworn enemies does not distinguish between innocent victims or combatants. Its purpose is to inflict maximum damage and get as much publicity out of that carnage. Its main and only agenda is that to kill as many people (who are opposed to them) as possible and if their own kind are killed so be it (they were just in the way or they are on their side).

It is time that we should accept this reality of a new and unsafe world and revamp our laws and security apparatus so that we would be able to fight the future wars with this relentless enemy with equal relentless intensity because it is a matter of our survival and our future generations.
