Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean the US had never suffered a terrorist attack - I'm sure the residents of Oklahoma could verify that.

What I really meant was that the US had never before been subject to a direct act of war (which, lets face it, Sept 11th was) on home soil. Cuba happend in, well, Cuba. Vietnam was in 'Nam. Pearl Harbour was Pearl Habour. But never before has continental North America been subject to that level of an attack.
