It’s darkly funny seeing TSA agents pulling out water bottles, which may be filled with highly volatile liquid explosives, and chucking them five or six feet on a parabolic trajectory to a trash can surrounded by people.

The point of terrorism is not the immediate killing and destruction. The point is the terror, the state of fright and panic, which makes the victim lose their mind and do stupid, self-destructive things. This is the real, large-scale, lasting impact.

By this metric, 9/11 is the single biggest and most resounding victory of terrorists since August 1914 when a terrorist attack provoked WWI.

So it goes :(
