In reply to the discussion: Senator Van Hollen: ''Kids in Gaza are now dying from the deliberate withholding of food. That is a war crime.'' [View all]brush
(53,998 posts)40. Both those delays you mentioned, 9/11 and Oct. 7, were by right wing admins.
Is that somehow symptomatic of winger admins their we've-got-this-smugness, their being so sure of themselves that they failed to re-enforce border security for early warnings?
Re-enforcing seems like something one would do automatically when warnings of something big is coming come in.

Surrendering means you give up and ask for mercy and an end to the conflict. You can negotiate peace terms.
