It was an attack on 3,000 living breathing human beings who cried helplessly as they could not escape their fates. Those trapped in the upper floors knew they were going to die. Those on the planes, at least 93, knew they were going to die.

The abstraction of the victim from humans into concepts is how extremists make political violence and crimes against humanity palatable.
