With regard to the OP, I seem to recall reading that the September 11 attacks targetted the World Trade Centre specifically because it was a major financial and business centre, with a high volume of people and of course a high profile target guaranteed to attract world attention. I believe the 2005 London bombings had similar motivations. I hardly think school shootings fall into the same category, ie they are usually (!) carried out by disturbed individuals for personal, psychological reasons, as distinct from spreading idealogically-based terror.
