I guess, I still don't see why folks think 9/11 is different from other tragedies. How many kids die of starvation every day? How many people die in government sanctioned bombings? How many die from storms or disease... It just seems to me that media and government worked very hard to make our reactions to it disproportionate, to keep our eyes on the screens and our bombs in the air.
