Your sarcasm is not appreciated, and I suspect it is an attempt to trivialize the point I am making. To rephrase and clarify: 3000 innocent civilian's lives were ended by terrorist extremists on September 11th. These extremists were Muslim. The vast majority of people murdered were American citizens, who had committed no crime greater than being Americans. Men, Women and probably Children of other nationalities were also murdered. The terrorists targeted civilians and not a military target.
