I hope no one here takes this the wrong way, but.... I wonder if the ammount of attention that has been placed on 9-11 in the recent weeks has, to some extent, validated the attack in the eyes of those that committed it. In some ways it is like the kid that acts up to get attention, or the bully that picks on other children - if everyone ignores their actions, then they will stop doing it.

Having said that, obviously we must spend a moment to remember those that where lost and those that lost loved ones. I just hope that the media hype surrounding events does not encourage others to take similar action in the future.

peace
