Hate to say this, because I will be roundly criticized, but if this is truly a "generational war on terror" then the death of 3000 in pretty inconsequential. Look at the casualties from other US wars... So, I suppose you would agree that 4,013 American deaths in the Iraq War is 'pretty inconsequential', too?? Can you have it both ways? I know you'll try. Of course, every American death at the hands of the enemy is "consequential". But your remark is utterly ignorant. Was Pearl Harbor inconsequential? Of course not. It isn't the body count; it is the very idea that we were vulnerable and we were attacked. Regardless of the number dead, the vulnerability has to be closed -- in the instant case, by killing terrorists and depriving them of future opportunities. Too complicated for you, though.
