So, L.H., Bin Laden sending his "troops" to kill over five thousand innocent people does not, in your mind, qualify as motivation for the U. S. to declare war! At least the Japanese targeted military targets!

I don't believe that you and many others have yet shifted your thinking from one kind of war to another. As so many others have said, we are engaged in a war much different from the ones we have been involved in before. The terrorist acts should only be answered in one way: war!
