As horrific as truck attacks, mass shootings, and suicide bombings have been, no-one have been on the same order of magnitude as airborne terrorism attacks.
The Bataclan, Las Vegas, Nice truck attack - all enormous tragedies. But compare to 9/11, Lockerbie, Flight 182, etc.
Bataclan = 132 deaths + ??? injuries
Nice Truck = 86 deaths, 458 injured
Lockerbie = 270 deaths (presumably 0 injuries)
Air India = 329 (also presumably no injuries)
Conveniently leaving out 9/11, was an attack on the scale of Bataclan, but due to the nature of air travel, had a much higher death toll.
So like, just one not on the same order of magnitude?
