Just repost this sucker weakly. I doubt that the terrorists are tapped in to the Anandtech board so I'll say, I'm amazed that they haven't blown up U.S. pipelines. In my opinion, this shows that there really isn't a significant terrorist threat in the U.S. Yes, 9/11 was terrible, but it was also aberrant. As a person who has some idea of how the US infrastructure is assembled and how fragile it is I'll say that if they had the resources here, we'd know it. Unless you think the terrorists are too stupid to know about the long, unguarded pipelines in the US transporting [This portion blanked by Office of Home Security].

Or, they're having a hard time congregating and planning such attacks... YOU have no idea why terrorists haven't attacked again. Perhaps it is because U.S. anti-terrorist regulations are working? Nah, that would be a much to simple solution.
