a deliberate terrorist attack at the very heart, the very soul of our country.

Umm.. perhaps if it was the Staue of Liberty or the White House or Capitol building.. but the World Trade Center? Serious and terrible, yes. The heart and soul of America? Naah.

Not the building itself, but the fact that there probably isn't another building with more people in it..

50,000 people in those buildings --- I would call this attack at the heart & soul of our country --- but I'm not going to argue semantics with you at this time.
