2011? I'm curious; why was this done ten years after the original event?

And why is the declaration so vague?

I would cynically guess that it is because the original event is irrelevant, and now used as an emotional patriotic excuse.

Still, I have read somewhere that even that vague declaration is not vague enough, because most of the persons that aided the terrorists are dead already. Basically, most of of the people that organized 9/11 attacks are dead now.

So USA will have to redefine the declaration, most probably.

why is the declaration so vague?

So it can be forever.
