A whole lot of people have had a crack at this.

Comparing casualties in Iraq to World War II, the Associated Press asks...
Why So Many Upset by Iraq Death Toll?

And I was going to leave it alone myself, but it's been bugging me. A question that stupid deserves a whole lot of stupid answers, so here's my contribution.

You can not endlessly flog the painful deaths of 9/11 and expect a like number of US deaths in a fraudulent, pointless war, no matter how cleverly concealed, to go unremarked. You can not celebrate, year after year, with fly-over bombast, the deaths of 9/11 and expect the deaths of US soldiers to go unremembered. And in particular, you can not hide the returning caskets and "support the troops."
