The first thing I would have done is fire the heads of the CIA and FBI. If you can't play well with others then you have no business in this position.

While a full and complete investigation was taking place I would begin the work to seal our borders including tasking the Corps of Engineers to begin construction of unscalable walls and electrified fences. No one would be able to enter the US without proper documentation again. (Hey this would have helped reduce the illegal immigration population too!). INS would have to begin immediatly coordinating with state and local police to start rounding up anyone here in the US illegally and those people would be imprisoned until deported.

Begin working immediately to make the USA energy independent using all forms of technology available to us. Relying on Arab countries for a necessary staple in our economy is just stupid.

Spec Ops would be secretly deployed to begin assassinating all key members of AQ, including bin Laden, and anyone else who was involved in the attacks on us.

All aid to foreign countries who celebrated the attacks on us would be immediately terminated. You hate us? Fine, you don't need our help then.

Countries that are not our allies would be charged for services provided from the USA. Our military ain't free you know.

Don't care if you don't like the way I would have done it or not, bur our friends would still be our friends and we wouldn't have gone to Iraq, so how many lives have I saved between our military casualties and the number of civilians that have been killed?
