It's not an exactly similar comparison, but it does raise an interesting point.
I do really hate Bush, Cheney, Rumsfield, and all the other people who have staged the invasion of Iraq for false reasons, and cost the US billions of dollars, thousands of lives, and the good will of peace loving people through out the world.

Neither of these is good, but who drew first blood?
When the people of one country decide to attack another, they should be smart enough to know there could be a reprisal, a counter attack.
Here's how I see it. Osama and his henchmen hated the US for several reasons. The very day before the towers were attacked Al Jazeera aired a tape of Bin Laden claiming there would be attacks of "unprecedented proportions." You probably forgot that. (He wanted the Arab world to know he had something to do with the attack) One or two days later Al Jazeera released a statement by Osama saying that wasn't the attack he spoke of. He said, "I didn't do it". He wanted the credit without taking the blame. Arab peoples in many countries marched and danced and cheered when the towers crashed. That told me they supported the attacks either physically, financially, or emotionally. They made it possible by financing or harboring those who planned the attacks. They were not innocent. The people in the towers were. I agree there have been some innocent people killed in this horrible military operation and I wish it were not so.
You seem to have forgotten that the Taliban in Afghanistan abused and suppressed the people horribly. They beat women with a stick if they "walk too fast." They killed anyone who dared to disagree with their teachings. They were monsters the people did NOT like.
Bin Laden was so sure he was safe that he had a very large home built in Afghanistan. He actually thought he was going to be able to live there after the attacks. He didn't think the US would do anything about it!!!!
Well the US did do something and now he is on the run and can't communicate with his henchmen as easily as before. Otherwise who knows what buildings would have been next?

There were 3 buildings destroyed in WTC. - Don't forget about building 7, which wasn't even hit by a plane.
3000 were killed on 9/11
The latest figures indicate 3000 American soldiers, and over 100,000 Iraqis to have been killed.
Yes, they were killed by the same man.
9/11 was an inside job, carried out in order to gain support to go to war.
But the actual deaths are very much higher - see the depleted uranium movie below. Also see the detaile 9/11 bresearch papers.

Are you listening? i'm going to in easy terms say this as quickly as. The WTC become built of metallic and urban flooring. while the planes hit the towers the took out the corners and the interior shape. The gasoline on an identical time because it did no longer soften the scouse borrow, it did although soften it. the burden of the construction above the fired saved bearing down on the broken factors and softened scouse borrow. Then it become an elementary count of give way like a pancake. The WTC in accordance to architects become a lots lighter construction than say the Empire state construction that's concrete bolstered. What the fireman pronounced become that it the flooring collapsing appeared like bombs going off.

You really can't put that in the same category. Yes 9/11 a lot of innocent people died, but they were actually innocent unarmed people. Men and women that were simply going to work doing what most likely were desk jobs.
The two countries, these people were not innocent. They were armed and posed a threat, a threat that was not only to us, but to their own people as well which is why we went over to the countries in the first place. So unfortunately your question is not a valid one since we're talking two completely different scenerios.

It's true a lot more innocent people died in Iraq and Afghanistan. It's sad when kids have to die for stuff they know nothing about too.

question to you first ... how do you destroy something that was never built? WTC BUILT the two counteries you are talking about werenever BUILT... accept it had saddam and osama ruled (note it is not governed) 20years more you would have got terrorist sitting in the oval office.
