since feeling is first/who pays any attention/to the syntax of things/will never wholly kiss you. . . . - e. e. cummings [since feeling is first]
The purpose of this site is to help acquaint you less with the events of 9-11 than with the broader cultural and historical background of terrorism. Thus this site focuses less on recent developments -- the latest actions in Afghanistan or the investigations of the anthrax outbreak -- than on analyses of the roots of those events which have had such a transformative effect on all of our lives.
