Let's all bear in mind that if we are at war with someone, it's whoever is responsible for this and whoever provided aid and assistance. It is not a war against Palestinians, Iraq, Arabs, or Islamics.

As a sidebar, think of how many companies were in that building, and of course all the dead and injured people are a tragedy (and what with the collapse, there are probably many more dead than injured), but what I'm getting at is think of all the records that were probably destroyed: insurance companies which either may have been wiped off the face of the earth and/or will no longer know who is a client and who is not (hopefully records are kept off-site, but suppose the entire staff got wiped out). The repercussions a huge.

Also, with easily 10's of thousands of people dead, there are sure to be people whose names are household words. Movie stars, politicians, and public figures of various sorts.

The scale of this thing is mind-blowing. CNN just showed film of the second airliner crashing into the second tower.
