In some places in the world, a death toll as big as September 11 happens on a regular basis. It is an ordinary day, sadly.

what a place where, 2750 innocent people die daily? After visiting America a year year the event, and this year, people are still badly affected by this tragedy.

I cannot remember an event since my birth that has caused the damaged the September attacks have done. Whether it be on death toll, economy, feelings, or on and characteristics of a city

Do you things like the tsunami have less of a lasting impact? The only reason why we know the death toll and the economy and the 'feelings' is because it's shoved in our face regularly because it's from America. But how do you think the Sumatrans or the other people affected by the tsunami felt and continue to feel? The initial death toll was again, just the start. Some people later died of disease and hunger. The fishing industry in that area of Asia has been completely devastated. This is not something that they've been able to recover from, nor will they for awhile.

Additionally, the Iraq War death toll exceeded that of September 11 by 2006. And given that Iraq isn't allowed to trade properly and so forth now, how do you think that impacted their economy? How do you think the 'feeling' of war torn Iraq is?

Welcome to the world, bad stuff happens. And you're right, we can't really compare violence and mourning and its subsequent impact. But, as truly sorry as I am for the victims of September 11, my attention isn't with them alone.
