because 9/11 was never about human life, Americans don't give a shit about that. they care about their own life, and 9/11 was a shocking, if temporary, reminder that a full life isn't a sure thing.
basically the American people felt for a moment how their government has made brown people all around the world every day for decades and the panic was enough to start multiple wars without an end in sight.
and of course as evidenced by these wars, it was a perfect excuse for maxing out the already obnoxious jingoism of the population. they just do it on reflex, no thinking.
never forget. respect the veterans. thank you for your service.
what was the service again? oh yeah cracking skulls of brown children? thanks a lot. I'm thankful you exploded those newlyweds on their wedding day who were surely getting married so they could do terror attacks together. thank you.
biggest terror organization in the world.
