"post-911 world"? I think you mean a "post-73 world" (if we take an Israeli point of view) or a "post-2015 world" (if we take the French one).
Your point of view seems to be very American centered.
- sumedh 6y agoNon American here, do you really believe whatever events happened to Israel or France compare to 9/11. The scale and destruction of 9/11 is on a whole different level.
- neiman 6y ago9/11 was the biggest, you're right. But I dunno how is it possible to compare this with the long list of terror attacks Israel had between 1989-2008 or the emotional effect on the EU policies of the club terror attacks in Paris. This is bad and this is bad, and all of these had a major effect on how the world looks nowadays. I wouldn't put the focus only on 9/11.
- sumedh 6y agoWhy are you just focussing on Israel and France, why not look at India who has been facing terror attacks even before Israel even existed. Why not talk about the 1770 Indian famine where millions died because of British policies. I hope you got the point.
- neiman 6y agoI'm not focusing, I gave some examples out of my general knowledge.
- yorwba 6y agoDo you really believe 9/11 compares to the Yom Kippur war of '73? Lots of people dying on a single day vs. even more people dying in a few weeks. (Although most of the casualties weren't on the Israeli side.)
- vikramkr 6y agoAmerica is the one taking charge in all the invasions and stuff in the relevant region, and the financial regulation relevant here was a 9/11 response. Its fair to call this a post 9/11 world
