Depends on your definition of U.S. soil. I consider US soil to be, as most people around the world, any locations within the geographical US, military installations, and diplomatic facilities. That said, there were were at least 10 incidents that meet the above criteria. There were several more involving either direct attacks on U.S. citizens or at random. I counted at least 2 within the geographical confines of the US - one was a Palestinian shooting people at the Empire State Building and one was letter bombs sent to a NY newspaper from Alexandria.[/b]
True, but the context of what we are discussing is "keeping terror from here at home"..."keeping the fight over there'"

Also, we'd be remiss to ignore the massacre in OKC in 1995. Not foreign, but some truly misguided souls there.

Hm, Columbine 1999? Was that "terrorism" as well?
Interesting how the definition can expand or contract.
