@thundero: you do understand that 9/11 was also symbolic, that no matter how hard america tries to stay away from the world (and they tried, on multiple occasions throughout the last 250 years), they'll keep getting dragged in, and the civilians are at risk even if they want nothing to do with the reasons...
plus, there's a difference between natural disaster and terrorist act which cost thousands of lives...
and I'm still holding out, price just went up to eight...
