So, the story so far:
A Commuter flight was hijacked and crashed into tower one. There could be about 20-30 people on board.

An American Airlines 737 was hijacked from Boston and crashed minutes later into tower two. There could be 130-180 people aboard.

Fifty thousand people work in the twin towers. Assuming both planes hit midway with twenty-five thousand people above the impact points, the fires (and more deadly) the asphyxiating smoke could get a number of them. A wild-assed guess could be anywhere from five to fifteen thousand.

An attack on the Pentagon has occured and I have no idea what that did yet.

In short, someone has probably killed in the neighborhood of ten thousand Americans to make a point. Are you impressed?

NaW.

Your's, mine, and a LOT of other people's.
Something they REALLY didn't want,
whether they knew that or not.
It was a MAJOR FU for whoever did it
(if the right group gets "credit".)
