The bottom line is: people are jumpy because they are scared. That fear will not go away for a long, long time because people in North America (US and Canada) have been living in this little bubble of invunerability and security. Personnaly, I'm not scared. I've been telling myself for the last 5-6 years or so that I'd better accept the idea of living in a world filled with terrorism. Therefore, I wasn't "suprised" at the acts (in fact, not many people should have been) that we just witnessed. I was more suprised that terrorist managed to hijack 4 planes at the same time than them crashing in the WTC.
I think that this was only the begginning and that the rest will hit us. Maybe tomorow, maybe 2 months from now. Future terrorism acts might not be as big or has damaging but they sure will be present and will become a way of life for us.

I disagree
this is not an attack, it is a set up
so there will be no more attacks
