I think you should view the 9-11 memorial sites again.Look again at the people clinging to the sides of the towers.... watch them freefall to be smashed like ripe fruit......look at the pile of dust those buildings and people became within hours of attack.........read the 911 transcripts of those trapped.

The death I saw that day will live with me forever....getting in someones face is not worth that mass murder being repeated.

getting in someones face is not worth that mass murder being repeated.

So your premise is that if we build shorter buildings, they won't go after them?

They will go after what we ourselves define as "great". If we define the Rocky Mountians as our national treasure because of some environaut touchy feelgood thing. They will burn down the forest. If we have a Golden Gate bridge, they will topple it.

Just as offering land to the Palestinians encuraged them to send more suicide bombers, because they thought they were "winning". Building a huge, sick, mausoleum on lower manhattan will bring on more attacks.
