I believe American and The Alkida are at a tie, because no one is really ahead of either one. We killed there leader, but they aren't gonna back down. They killed thousands of our people, and we aren't backing down either. Also, I believe they hit the twin towers instead of a football field or the White House because they want to make us nervous or back down.
