Just to put the events into perspective:
Number of people who died due to Hitler: ~50,000,000
Number of people who died due to terrorist attacks in the US: ~3000
Number of people who die in a car accident in the US EVERY YEAR: ~40,000
Number of children who can be saved EVERY YEAR by bringing US infant mortality rate down to Slovenia's or Czech Republic's (!!) level: ~11,000
How many lives could be saved by directing anti-terrorist organization's funding towards preventing car accidents or other preventable causes of death?
