About this episode
Today marks 20 years since terrorists attacked Americans on our home soil, killing nearly 3,000 people at the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. 9/11 triggered two decades of war in the Middle East. But are we any safer now compared to 20 years ago? According to a recent survey by the Washington Post and ABC News, Americans are pretty split in their opinions. About half feel we're more secure now while 41% say we're more at risk. Today, we're getting the perspective of former U.S. diplomat David Rundell . He represented the United States for 30 years in the Middle East and he was in Saudi Arabia on September 11th, 2001.
