Western Civilizations Final Question 4

I chose this article (http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/subjects/s/sept_11_2001/index.html?scp=1-spot&sq=September%2011&st=cse) for its similarity to the philosopher Thucydides, because of its focus on fact and detail. Thucydides was called the "Father of Scientific History," for his use of fact and detail.
