A few car bombs can not seriously damage a huge enterprise.

I don't need to be told this. I saw it with my own eyes. I watched CNN when the second plane hit the WTC. At first, I thought it was a replay. It took me a while to realize there was another plane involved - I was in denial. Some people still are. We are being attacked.
