But when the terrorists take down a plane, the political capital is huge. The loss to the country is more important than the people killed. On a large plane maybe 500 people, hell, we knock off more jaywalkers and bike riders than that.
A great personal tragedy for each victim and their families, but small potatoes to the country. That's why 9-11 was of such importance. 3,000 people isn't a blip on the national death toll, it was the attack on the nation that was important.
