More than 2000 - it is actually 2606 - seems that they are verbally minimizing number of people killed. Why not mention exact number? And it would be fair to note what ideology the terrorists held. Otherwise, "lets ban all airplanes"?
There should NO controls on airplanes! Anyone should be allowed to own and operate a 747 or any other kind of plane without hindrance or restriction. And B-2's and F-16's as well. It is our Constitutional right!
It must be terrible for these progressives to live in a country they despise but still not want to leave. Envy and guilt control all of their thoughts.
