That was my first thought. A “Tragedy” is an accidental type event.

A deliberate act such as 9.11 is MURDER, or an act of war. “Tragedy” is *NOT* a proper description of what happened that day. Anyone that refers to it in such a way is insulting each and every person that was harmed that day, along with their loved ones!

“Tragedy” has always made me bristle.

Didn’t those killed get money? Don’t insurance companies make war an exclusion?

Tragedy is a catastrophe that occurs through man’s own failings - King Lear, for example.

Healthy, virile societies do not commemorate and weep over getting their asses kicked.
