Actually there were attacks by AQ or islamists on US soil and occasionally embassies in


98, 97, 95, 94, and 93. All of those were in the ten years before 911.


There were also attacks in 2002 and 2006. (same wiki source listed recently)


But the important thing is that no matter how you measure the attacks - AQ on US soil, AQ off US soil, any terrorist at all anywhere, etc. the number and severity of attacks was greater before 911 and less afterwards.


In fact I think it is even more interesting to note that all terrorist attacks by anyone anywhere have decreased since the WOT.
