Professor Hanson has details and as usual, describes it perfectly.
Noteworthy:
"Two things seem clear here. One: There have been, and are now, plenty of Islamic terrorists and their helpers in the United States. And two: We are dangerously shortsighted about the ongoing threat they pose."
"In short, six years of quiet at home since 9/11 have fooled some into thinking that terrorists pose little danger here - or that we may be doing far too much rather than too little to stop such killers. No matter that this past week a jihadist plot to destroy U.S. facilities in Germany was thwarted."
"More naivete - or is it simple hubris?"
Based on what appears in certain national blogs, and on one particular blog locally, it's pretty clear that "hubris" is the right word.
