The twin towers collapsing was the result of an act of war, depending on how you view the war of terrorism.

As warfare goes, that was pretty small potatoes compared to mass firebombing of WW II.

Answer 6

911 wasn't a disaster; it was an intentional declaration of war, just as the attack on Pearl Harbor was a declaration of war (and in which nearly as many people died).  The deaths caused by the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki likewise weren't disasters; those deaths were intentional.  The genocide in Darfur, in Rwanda, in Hitlers Germany likewise are not disasters.  The number of lives lost has been horrific but it has been done with intent.  

Wether man made caused by negligence, bad judgement or carelessness, or natural, disasters are unintentional.  Hurricanes, tsunamis, ship wrecks, plane crashes, volcanos; the world has seen its share of disasters.  It's too bad that mankind sees the need to add intentional deaths to the numbers.

Answer 7

Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Hitler, Bill Clinton

Answer 8

concord, titanic, 3 mile island, clumbia shuttle,twa flight 800

Answer 9

Let's say a human disaster excludes nature, involves loss of human life by human causes. Five biggies were: Bhopal (15,000 - 22,000 dead, 3,000 of these immediately), Triangle Factory Fire (146), Sampoon Department Store Collapse (501 dead), the Teneriffe airport collision (583 dead) and the Titanic (1,500 dead). These all had major ramifications on their industries and made huge news. Bhopal far exceeds the rest in loss of life. Chernogyl would be my sixth, rserve choice. It is attributed with 56 deaths.
