But see, it's different because it's foreign based terrorism vs domestic, and we hadn't seen anything like the attacks on September 11th here before, though other countries had.
Thing is, making it a great national wound in our side is the purpose of terroism. Rebuilding, moving on, and not living in fear or attacking each American Muslims is really the best way to "win."
Instead we still have Ground Zero instead of WTC+1 (which is what I would have liked to see, rebuilt albeit with better structural support and add one floor to each tower.), we're making American Muslims the target of our fear and anger, and we have to buy new shampoo wherever we travel because of the stupid TSA regulations.
In short, we didn't have to "change" nearly as much as we did.

Small correction, you forgot about Pearl harbor and how we set up 'camps' for Japanese Americans.
