I don't know, Ichy. I wonder what the true costs of 9-11 were.... Not only in the lives lost, and the families do badly damaged. But the true financial costs. In NYC, the Pentagon, and PA. Planes, numerous buildings, damage to the environment, illnesses caused by the firemen and police and workers who helped with all the debris, the insurance costs, the small businesses that went out of business, hospitals and therapy costs, etc etc etc.... I wonder if we will ever know in our lifetimes what the financial costs of 9-11 are... To try to prohibit any more such attacks seems ultimately sensible. Especially if there is a nuke or bio weapon attack....You in Canada would no doubt be affected as well. It would seem to me that the entire planets' peoples would try to rid itself of this scourge BEFORE the costs become even higher.
