And what did we get for our restrained response in 1993 attack on the wtc?? we got 9/11 8 years later.

You cannot say America over-reacted.

We tried diplomacy and small response after the 1993 attack on the WTC, and what we got in response to our restraint was 9/11.

IMO our response to 9/11 was still very restrained. Most Americans would have been happy to see the entire middle east nuked.
