What is the effect on businesses and consumers when Islamic radicals fly airplanes into the twin totems of global prosperity? We don't know, because nothing even remotely similar has ever happened. How will America fight this battle? Ditto. Will the terrorists fight back? If they do, how much more pain will they inflict on the markets? They don't teach Terrorism 101 in business school.
