ok, so terrorists did it with no reason at all ???
Wait, what? Terrorists had been targeting American embassies abroad years before this. This time was different, because they were bold enough to attack on US soil, and to figure out how to do it in a spectacular way.
If what you're getting at is Bush's attack on Iraq, yes, but the US had been a target of Islamic terrorism long before Bush. It didn't make any difference the party affiliation of any given sitting President at the time. It's had everything to do with a variety of US foreign policy issues over time, not the least of which is the creation of, and relationship with, Israel.

And that will continue indefinitely.
You are wrong though. Osama bin Laden's gripe with the US was the fact that NATO (the US) used Saudi soil to base its operations when removing the Iraqis from Kuwait. It had nothing to do with Israel. He could not have cared less about the Palestinian struggle.
Early nineties - till now. So where was the best return on investments within this particular period?
I am not asking about "will," I am asking about WAS. So where were the best investments with the best returns within that period of time?
Your concern was not about where money was invested or how markets performed, but where money would be invested if taxes were to be cut. Ultimately, that is the decision of the people whose money it is or at least it should be.
In answer to your question, I would have to say Russia or China. However, markets don't look backward, they look forward and in terms of safe investment of capital there is no place that looks like a safer bet than right here. Sure, other countries will outperform the US for periods of time, but what happens when their currencies decouple or an unstable government decides that they are entitled to a nice chunk of holdings? Stability has great value, the past few days notwithstanding.
Do we have police reports? We have real arrest reports from the pro-Hillary riots that are occurring and being caused by people who do not understand democracy. There were no riots in 2008 or 2012.
Oh, and here are some more liberals that have become feral.
