not really. people got killed in both circumstances.
also, 20,000 people...i dont know where you get your numbers, but thats not correct. i know for a fact that many people left the buildings that were hit before they collapsed. the diehards may have stayed, sure, but not 20,000 of them, let alone 50,000
...happen all the time. im not saying its not a tragedy, but its not the end of the world. might be the end of america, but thats debatable too. the point is, just because america was attacked, doesnt make it more important or more of a tragedy than any other country. im sure most of you, when a bombing in a foreign country comes on the news, think "oh dear...shocking really..." and flip the channel. but when it threatens dear old US-of-A, its immediately the end of the world.
