That was one of the biggest tragedies in recorded history. Do you even know what it did to the economy? It was like Black Monday on a 5x multiplier.
The World Trade Center, keyword TRADE. This isn't pokemon shit, this is real-world stocks and dollars. The portfolios were ruined.

It's a pretty decent refutation of Great Man Theory. bin Laden was just a guy who had the right connections to get the attack plan rolling. The hijackers were just 19 random dudes, not commandos or spec ops. Their plan worked because it was a vector of attack that hadn't been seriously considered and no one was really trying to defend against.
Their plan worked because somebody with authority over NORAD rescheduled a bunch of training simulations of commercial plane terrorist hijackings for the morning of 9/11. That vector of attack was calculated and they had the perfect defense from it. Somebody on the inside sabotaged those defenses.
