Russian Attack Submarine Sailed in Gulf of Mexico Undetected For Weeks

I know full well how powerful the USA is, however, it is not nearly as strong as it is claimed to be.

The USA with all its firepower, is weaker now than ever before. I as an Australian and an Englishman, hence a Coalition member, would like the US to improve its defence and at the same time, treat threats against the free world more seriously.

These two sneak attacks, in both cases, were ONLY sneak attacks because the US Military and Government said "They are impossible"...

The Japanese lost the war due to their inability to match American Industry and RnD. However the War against Terror is still going and is starting to look unwinnable.

So two sneak attacks on the United States without warning or declaration of war gives you this insight.
Your post simply states your own ignorance. Not to mention your own underestimating and berating of the United States.
In actuality the instigators of Pearl Harbor and 911 are the one that made the mistake of underestimating and both paid the price for it.
Is that mushroom cloud something you'd like to see befall the USA as well?

vietnam?  basically all of central and south america?  mara salvatrucha?  18th street gangs?

Do you have a source where the US Military and Government said both Pearl Harbor and 911 were impossible?
You're insinuating that it was policy of the US and it's armed forces to scoff at the idea of an attack by Japan and the attack on the World Trade Center.
In fact the US was expecting Japan to strike somewhere in the Pacific.  With exception of the British carrier raid on Taranto, nobody had ever pulled off anything like the Japanese did with their raid on Pearl Harbor. The US was also in negotiations with Japan in an attempt to avoid war. The British and Dutch were attacked at the same time by the Japanese. Was this because they underestimated and berated their enemies so often that they ended up believing it ? The sinking of the Repulse and the Prince of Wales due to air attack were actually bigger shocks than the battleships sunk at Pearl Harbor. These ships were underway at sea and expecting combat.

 911 again was the first attack of its kind but not the first on the WTC. It had been struck in the 90s with a truck bomb.There was very high concern for the safety of the WTC from terrorist attack.  Both attacks were unique and first of their kind. A large scale carrier raid and 60 years later a large scale attack using hijacked airliners.

Both these attacks very well would have worked against any other country in the world just like they did against the United States. Had it happened to one of those countries would you had felt the same urge to post pictures of burning ships and buildings with people in them about to die and insult their country?

That pretty well sums it all up.
