From your point of view what is the worst disaster to hit the world in the last ten years?

For America 911

So far the one we are in is near the top. Check in when it’s over.

George W. Bush inaugurated as President of the United States, January 20, 2001.

tsunami in 2004

The theft of the Gore/Bush election, November-December 2000.

9/11 was pretty bad. Plus, it led to the Iraq War.
In terms of total badness, definitely 9/11.

Obama or McCain as president. Not nominating Ron Paul

George Dubya Bush and his Ownership Society.

9/11 and the events thereafter.

As horrible as 9/11 was, from a world wide perspective, I’m going to say the tsunami in 2004.

9/11 thus far but hey we could be in a worse situation

George W. Bush, which led to George Bush, and the diverting of the American Treasury funds to the wealthy as the supposed solution to the American Economic meltdown. Bill Clinton had us out of national debt. Giving Fort Knox to American millionaires is not the way to balance the budget. Hey! I got a credit card! I can spend it out to the limit too!

but bill Clinton wasn’t funding multiple war fronts and suffering from the worst attack on American soil All of the above will hurt the economy and increase debt

Brittney losing her children.

9/11 was bad. But it was an excuse for worse. The Iraq war, which was spuriously connected to 9/11 – which was organized by Saudi citizens, and had no impact on
the Bush family’s embrace of the Saudi royal family with its millions – has been a much worse event than 9/11 quantitatively: more deaths, more money spent, more destruction of community in the world for the United States, more distrust of our own government.

Just saying.

bush and 9/11

Aids/malaria. 9/11? You must be kidding.

The death of Anna Nicole Smith, of course! What a terrible tragedy.

The “war on terror” is at #1, then the Asian tsunami. Let’s not forget either the economic crisis.
