Nevertheless, no matter what theory of 9/11 you happen to believe, everyone seems to act like this is the only time something like this has ever happened in the world: that mass amounts of people have been killed by foreigners who hate that country or their own government.
(i.e. Mao Ze-Dong's "great leap forward, Adolf Hitler's attack on the Jews, Kim Il Sung's purges and concentration camps, the Taliban's terror worldwide) Give me a break.
Now, if something different had happened, say... the Statue of Liberty was blown up and the Constitution was burned, I'm sure I'd be pissed as well... but the "twin towers" had nothing to do with symbolizing America. Corporate America is not the true America. All the world trade centers stood for was how great we are and how much money we have. I don't believe that that was the "founding fathers'" idea of what this country should have been about. How two towers filled with American corruption could represent America, I have yet to understand. Somebody please help me here. I don't see the connection.
In conclusion, the simple fact is: thousands more people die a day than those on September 11th, 2001. It's truly sad that such a trivial matter should go down as symbolic history, as many other important events in the history of the United States. And regardless of who was behind it, there is no turning back now. There is nothing we can do, so get over it. People 50 years down the line aren't going to be crying like you, so there's no reason for you to do it now. I'd be happy if people looked back on this article and said: "man... that guy made a lot of sense." It'd be a great accomplishment for me. And yes, I realize that I'm going to get flamed, but I just don't care. As an American, I'm entitled to my opinion. So suck it.
