Blame the terrorists. Could there have been more security? yes. Was there any reason at the time to even THINK that something like that would happen on a random day in september? no.I dont know of ANY other case besides 9/11 where they hijack a plane and crash it into buildings. At least not on that scale. Why would they suspect that it would happen? They wouldve been alot more alert to suddam hussain Gasing us, but not 9/11.

Strawman. No one has absolved Al Qaeda of the attacks. However, it is the duty of my government, it's security agencies and it's military, of whom the president is Commander in Chief, to think of the unthinkable and to prevent it from happening. The fact that the WTC was the target of a similar attack in 1993, however, provides more than a few clues as to the intention of the terrorists. If that is not enough for suspicion, then I do not know what would be.
