十年前，即2011年5月2日，美国海豹队成功地猎杀了奥萨马-本-拉登。以下是欧巴马总统和麦克雷文上将关于这次行动的讨论。

最令我印象深刻的是，欧巴马总统对所有为这项任务做出贡献的人，特别是那些将生命置于危险之中的年轻士兵深表感谢和关切。。。欧巴马总统在行动前致电麦克雷文和他的团队，并在任务完成后与许多年轻士兵亲切握手。。。

快进十年后的今天。 根据每周日播出的法里德的GPS报告：https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSAqFfwa_Zs
在过去10年中，全球因恐怖主义而死亡的人数下降了59%。
在西方，来自极右翼的威胁在同一时期增加了250%，占袭击的46%和死亡的82%。
而对美国政府的核心和我们的民主基础最具破坏性的攻击是1月6日由特朗普及其支持者煽动的国内极右翼极端分子的叛乱。 联邦调查局局长2021年3月2日向国会作证说，(1)与按提法组织有关的人没有参与冲击国会大厦，暴乱者是真正的特朗普支持者，（2）国内恐怖主义正在 "全国范围内蔓延"，他重申了来自出于种族动机的极端分子的威胁。

Ten years ago, May 2, 2011, the U.S. Navy Seal Team successfully hunted down Osama Bin Laden. Here is a discussion between President Obama and Admiral McRaven about the operation.

What strikes me the most is the deep appreciation and concern President Obama had for all the men and women who contributed to this mission and particularly the younger soldiers who put their life in risk... President Obama call the McRaven and his team before action, and shook hands with many young soldiers after the mission was accomplished.

Fast forward, after ten years.According to Fareed's GPS Report aired every Sunday: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSAqFfwa_Zs
In the past 10 years, global deaths from terrorism declined by 59%.
In the West, the threat from the Far Right increased by 250% in the same period, making up 46% of attacks and 82% of death.
And the most devastating assault on the heart of US government and the foundation of our Democracy was the Jan.6 insurrection by domestic Far Right extremists inflamed by Trump and his FBI Director testified to the Congress on March 2, 2021 that (1) people associated with antifa were not involved in storming the Capitol and that rioters were genuinely supporters. Trump supporters, not posing falsely as them; (2) domestic terrorism was “metastasizing across the country,” reaffirming the threat from racially motivated extremists。
