9/11 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.

Why 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.

I'm not focusing, I gave some examples out of my general knowledge.
