When "terrorist" attacks took place within the US in 2001,that was the Second "Terrorist" attack that took place on September 11.
The first "terrorist" attack took place in Chile,overthrew an elected government and set up a Military Dictatorship.
To answer The Clash,I remember Victor Jara in the Santiago Stadium and what was done to his fingers so he wouldn't play guitar for anymore folk songs.
I was living in Atlanta,Georgia when September 11 attacks took place in the US.
The collapse of the World Trade Center had the most affect on me because I had lived in New York and had been in both buildings.
I call both attacks "terrorism" because those, who attacked,had no concern over "collateral damage" or civilian dead.
The first attackers claimed they were saving Chile from "Communism".
The second attackers claimed that they were saving the world from US imperialism.
I write these from translations that I have read of documents from the attackers.
I see both attackers by their actions as people who find it easier to hate and kill "the other".

Truly the shame is that we as Americans are allowed to stomp on whomever we want but do not want others to do so. The fact that the current VP Cheney encouraged 'Georgia's' idiot president in his foolish pissing contest which brought down the wrath of the Russians is hardly spoken about but our preemptive trip to Iraq was just fine because we thought they had nukes!
