It Wasn't A Tragedy

Sitting in Mass this morning our good Father started his homily by talking about the 9/11 tragedy. I'd heard all the pundits on television and in the media refer to it that way, too. I thought this was strange. My opinion only but I feel Katrina was a tragedy. The flooding in Cedar Rapids, Iowa two years ago was the same. Acts of nature are tragedies. I had an acquaintance die on the 17th green at our golf club a month ago. How sad. He doesn't know is dying was a tragedy but his family does.
What Mohammed Atta and the other killers did was war against the United States. It wasn't an act of nature. My opinion only.
