September the 11th, a few years on.

Face facts, a lot more people will have suffered emotional turmoil in America due to the recession than 9/11. Whether it has had more impact is a different question. Personally I think Bush woud have gone into Iraq to finish Daddies work irrespective. Further to that it is entirely likely that had it been foiled there would still have been another incident that would have sparked off a security escalation.

killing people is wrong, but living a life of ludicrous borrowed expenditure that starves the weak is also wrong. i think the comparison is which is worse: killing innocents by jet-plane or killing thousands more innocents by ignorant, selfish living. this matter is your own call...

I would like to see how the family's of these people would take your comments. loss of life is bad, the loss from delays, the loss to war, terrorism, falling down the stairs its all bad.

If you had died in 9/11 how would you family feel to find out some one was saying "well its not as bad as XYZ?"

I think you are right that the war was nothing to do with 9/11 and probably 9/11 was used as an excuse to go to war but to say the recession is worse is a very tactless comment.

Loss of life is very bad, to a few, global economic crysis is bad to the majority.
