I don't want to start a conspiracy thread but for everyone who says this event was horrible (which I would imagine is most of us), don't forget that the US intelligence community essentially let 9/11 happen.
The FBI, CIA, NSA, and USCIS all knew that terrorists were in the US, had plans to crash planes and did nothing because of departmental prick waving (ie they wouldn't cooperate or share info).
I wrote a paper on the intel failures of 9/11 and it really made me hate the Bush administration more than I did before.
