I find your choice of comparisons quite interesting, ITK.

"911" was a man made event which took place over a very short period of time, as opposed to the Tsunami which was natural, or the wars which were drawn out. I'd see more of a comparison with Hiroshima or Nagasaki.

Eh ?

Can you explain ? On what scale ?

Compared, maybe to the Tsunami - which killed around 250,000? Or Darfur ? Or Iraq ? Or Afghanistan ? Or Vietnam ? Cambodia ?

Around 3000 people were killed on Sept 11th 2001 - that's about one seventh of the number that the Americans themselves kill in their own country each and every year !
