We didn't get a chance to "get it". It was like it never happened. I remember it being on the news once or twice and it was way underplayed.
Yes but there were MANY other attacks. Americans didn't seem to GET those either. We should have. There were plenty of dead people under the watch of Reagon, Bush, and Clinton. Carter as well. It wasn't like it just started. Clinton didn't get it. He should have...but didn't. It took 9/11 to bring it home I guess. Sadly.
