> If it's terrorists attacking NATO (or the West) rather than just
America, it makes sense I suppose but I would expect Westminster
(the seat of government) to be evacuated first.

It's a good plan, but it doesn't seem very likely. It didn't take long for
people to get the symbolism: the financial center of the wealthiest,
the military center of the mightiest, and (attempted) the place where
we tried to force a peace bargain between the Israelis and
Palestinians. The planes hijacked belonged to United and American
airlines.

What a morning.
