noone could do anything at that point. Any attempt to intervene would most likely have cost more lives.

People die every day everywhere for many reasons. You make it sound like every one should care about 911. Not that i don't,but your statement sound so immature. Do you know that people today in Vietnam are still affected by Agent orange That was used half a century ago? people are still born with accute handicaps and deformaties.
Your rant doesnt deserve a response and i tossed asserting at all. But i feel like you deserve a response. -
@Santaclauze That's a bit harsh. People tend to empathise with disasters that are more closely associated with their time and culture - it's natural, and there's nothing inherently wrong with that.
9/11 was bad (and had the largest death toll of any terrorist attack ever). Agent orange was bad. The 2005 tube bombings in the UK were bad. The Camp Speicher massacre was bad. I don't think anyone (sane) on here would say any of the above were *good* things.
But different people will mourn the above to different extents, and in different ways. Claiming that everyone needs to mourn and remember every terrorist attack, war and riot in equal measure is ridiculous. -
Linux434835yAccording to OP:
Today is 27,064 days since Japan lost 166 000 souls in the blink of an eye, and the world just watched.... -
@AlmondSauce i got fustrated with the sentence “and the world just fucking watched...” what does that mean? Take that sentence out and i would have said nothing.

@M1sf3t in that case i was harsh i agree. And yes the wording is not well used. For a dev you have to get those words precise bro!!!
