Why does it have to be conspiracy? Why can't the media drive for the big story and the government drive to "solve" big problems both push in the same direction? Over-reaction is why terrorists do what they do. bin Laden types get big press and new recruits. That is why it will happen again.

First attack on American soil? Leave Pancho Villa out of this.

The alteration of the skyline of New York Fuckin' City? We have fires every day.

People leaping from the 100th floor? No, that isn't tragic at all! It was tragic, nobody here is denying that. Unfortunately, bad things happen every day, this time it happened to Americans instead of Japanese, Germans, or Iraqis.
