Why does the US think 9/11 is the worst crime to humanity

Naru · April 26, 2015, 03:16:30 AM

And don't say anything about dropping the most devastating weapons known to man on innocent people? lol

Korra · April 26, 2015, 03:18:28 AM

Why does Naru think LoL is the best game made by humanity? And don't say anything about the most competitive game of all time that is Quake Arena? lol

Not Comms Officer · April 26, 2015, 03:20:22 AM

Cause one of them was a surprise attack out of nowhere without any context and the other one was a choice between deploying nuclear weapons against a civilian population of one or two cities or having to launch a bloody ground invasion which would have resulted in far more deaths?

But I still disagree that 9/11 is the worst crime to humanity.

Yes, but developing a weapon that vaporizes people is worse than a couple thousand people dying in a tower.

They're taught to believe that killing civilians was justifiable.

Super Irish · April 26, 2015, 05:18:21 AM

Because nationalistic/patriotic selfishness.

They simply care more because it was an attack on them, because it was them rather than someone else.

That said, US isn't really alone on this, but because is the major power in the West, everyone else generally is inclined to agree it's the worst just for y'know, allyship and that sorta thing.

gats · April 26, 2015, 05:55:59 AM

because they're faggots. if anything two towers wasn't enough

Mat Cauthon · April 26, 2015, 05:56:44 AM

They're oversensitive.

Girl of Mystery · April 26, 2015, 06:47:52 AM

Because of patriotism.

There are events that are significantly worse than 9/11, but because it's America it's suddenly the most tragic event in history.

big dog · April 26, 2015, 06:56:56 AM

9/11 was pretty funny tbh

Mattie G Indahouse · April 26, 2015, 07:04:48 AM

It's because it's the most recent worse thing that happened to the US.

Onion · April 26, 2015, 07:27:14 AM

Over-sensitive, close-mindedness, patriotism, selfishness.
Though you could say that about any country if they were the victim.
I suppose it's comparable to a loved one dying as opposed to someone you've never met.

But what do I know, I'm just a filthy freedom hating bong. Which way is Mecca?

Hawk · April 26, 2015, 09:09:16 AM

They don't... it was one of the worst attacks on american soil. That's the phrase people use to describe 9/11.

Big Boss · April 26, 2015, 09:16:24 AM

It was horrific. Bigger things have happened with more casualties but it was horrific.

Batch · April 26, 2015, 09:19:57 AM

Well, yeah worse things have happened, but a plane crashing into a tower, in the middle of a damn city, that brings the terror in terrorism if there was a depiction for it.

Citizens in most countries aren't as idiotically patriotic as in America.

its what the government wants us to think

Turkey · April 26, 2015, 10:05:15 AM

Nobody thinks that, but it had a significant affect on the country and has lasting repercussions to this day.

big sponge · April 26, 2015, 10:10:42 AM

ITT: Americans say it wasn't and everyone else accuses them of being idiotic patriots that believe it was the worst thing to happen to humanity ever.

True Turquoise · April 26, 2015, 10:15:13 AM

Because thems towers were expensive and its their moneys
