Collapsed towers in TV reminds me of a scene in movie Starship Troopers where a bug meteor has hit Buenos Aires. Old wounded man in the movie saying "only good bug is a dead bug" could be an NY resident right now saying "only good muslim is a dead muslim".
No, I'm not an American and I didn't have any friends/relatives/etc. out there in NY. This attack reminds me more about Hiroshima instead of Pearl Harbor. Pearl Harbor was military target, Hiroshima wasn't. Hiroshima bombing wasn't unexpected, just like this wasn't (if you piss off n+666 fundamentalistic terrorist groups, you should be aware that you have an enemy), though the amount of destruction was much larger than what could be expected. Both were also civilian targets and resulting in thousands of dead innocent people.
What I'm afraid now is King George II Bush overreacting - I wouldn't be surprised even if Mr. Bush attacked suspected 'terrorist supporting' countries with nuclear weapons.
