That's not what it says. The article begins by comparing the 9/11 attacks to what the Russians experienced during world war II. Twenty million Russians were ultimately killed so there is no comparison. The article is asking if we are over reacting by assuming that the enemy now has the capacity to threaten our very existence, not just the will. The questions the article raises are valid, regardless of whether or not you agree with it's conclusions.

Let's see. Thousands of innocent civilians murdered in cold blood. Billions in property damage. Seems bad to me. I'd say the LA Times columnist is just a ding-a-ling. Maybe that's just me.

Aw heck no it was great. Only 3-4000 died. Now if it had happened in L.A. would it have been bad? Why would you base an opionion on one opinion in one newspaper? You have a brain, use it.
