How many other single terrorist attacks were captured on live television
and resulted in the deaths of almost 3000 people?


Lots of fidayeen attacks in Kashmir were captured on television,
including the most recent one at the Sher-e-Kashmir Park. Way more
than 3000 people have died as the result of Pakistan-sponsored
militancy in Kashmir over the past 15-20 years. Thousands of Hindu
Kashmiri pandits have had to flee the area because of the
Lashkar-e-Toiba. And this does not even include the hundreds of
attacks all over India. Just because 11/9 occured in the U.S and 3000
people died in one shot doesn't mean it was some sort of
"international calamity" greater than any other. And what does the
live-television thing have to do with anything?
