That was one of the biggest tragedies in recorded history. Do you even know what it did to the economy? It was like Black Monday on a 5x multiplier.

The World Trade Center, keyword TRADE. This isn't pokemon shit, this is real-world stocks and dollars. The portfolios were ruined.

The next time you laugh at that, think about the human beings that had their vacation bonuses decimated that day. Think about how the economic blow made countries like China catch up to us. Just think about that.

The whole goal of 9/11 failed completely too. It was supposed to unite the Muslim world against the US and make america reflect upon its actions (lol). Instead you got shit like ISIS who thought killing innocent civilians (usually other muslisms) was cool and good.
