But I believe many were just happy to see America for once humiliated as it has done to so many others, which in itself is not a sin.

What is sad, and oh so instructive about you, is that you consider 9/11 a humiliation. It was in fact, the opposite. The bravery and heroism of

that

day is unparalleled. It was, as Churchill once said, our finest hour.

USA is without competition the greatest military might in the world. Yet it was unable to prevent a destructive strike against the very core of its miltary and economic power. Of course it was a humiliation, and saying it was doesn't mean diminishing the bravery of those ordinary people who acted heroically in crise situation. That is a different issue altogether.

Would you feel better if I said it was a humiliation to military and intelligence machinery, but a brave moment for the People of USA?
