9/11, Definitely NOT the worst thing ever... Options

I was watching the Discovery Channel. There was some show about Nostradamus on, and they kept mentioning 9/11. Over and over again they said "It was the worst attack..." "Most horrifying...". I can't help but to disagree, but IT WAS NOT THE WORST!! 2,993 people died in that attack. Sure, a lot of innocent lives, but what about Hiroshima?
90,000-140,000 completely innocent people died in that attack, why isn't that considered the most tragic ever? When that happened we, as Americans, were no better than the terrorists were on 9/11. I would dare say, we were much worse. What about the 72,000,000 people that died in WWII? Why isn't that worse than 9/11? Or the 40,000,000 that died in WWI? WHAT ABOUT THE 25,000 TROOPS THAT DIED AS A RESULT OF THE 9/11 ATTACK?

I hate how Americans are like the emo teenage girl that wants everyone to feel sorry for her.
There have been so many worse things than 9/11. Get your head out of your ass and take a look around you.

I understand that aspect.
I just... don't think it should be labeled as the worst.
It was the worst attack on American soil. It wasn't worse than those poor Holocaust victims. I think the world changed after that. And it wasn't worse than either of the World Wars, which also changed the world.

I don't think we should forget about the other tragedies. I think they should be talked about the same amount, if not more, than 9/11.
Wasn't December 7, 1941 a day that was supposed to live on infamy? It seems as though most people have forgotten about that, because it doesn't affect us anymore. We aren't in that war anymore, so it's not important anymore.
