The atrocious outrages and dreadful loss of life in the US on September 11 (note the symbolism of twin towers and the figure 11) is one of history's saddest days, when all civilisation lost its innocence as a new form of barbarism and evil revealed itself.
It may not be political in its motivation yet could easily envelope the world in a holy war of Christian versus Muslim nations.
