Hmmm.... Let's see. A terrorist act designed to take out as much of our government as possible is carried out. The same act is designed to disable aspects of our financial system. At the same time, 3,000 people are murdered in the attack--and for all we know they were actually trying to murder 10,000 or so--they just attacked too early in the day.
Hmmm...nope, no overreaction that I notice.

This is something that idiots like this can't seem to grasp. Had the planes struck the towers at about 11:00am or 2:00pm, and had the buildings come down immediately, possibly striking other buildings, the death toll would have approached 60,000. Just the twin towers, when fully populated, had nearly 50,000 people in them.

As horrific as it was to see nearly 3,000 people murdered, it could have been VERY MUCH WORSE.

This a**h**e is beneath contempt!

They, the terrorists, were seeking to murder about 55,000 people in the WTC, plus another 25,000 at the Pentagon, and upwards of 800,000 working in the Postal Service (with their anthrax attack element), and maybe several million more in the general population as a consequence of anthrax.

In short, the terrorists targeted more people than this Bell puke can count.

The Twin Towers had 50,000 employees and who knows how many visitors at any given moment, but, as you stated, the terrorists were too early in the day. Perhaps the different time zones confused them. The terrorists were definitely hoping for more than what they got.

If the author were to apply the same logic to war casualties from WWII and now, he'd have to admit that the military is doing a great job.
