What lesson would kids gain from that which they don’t already know intuitively? Kids don’t need to be taught that senseless death is sad. The purpose of such an activity would be indoctrinating a sense of persecution in the citizens of the country with the most powerful military which has caused magnitudes more suffering than this individual event. Especially if you leave out the 20-year response by that same military to the event.
Kids can follow up that lesson with some Iraq war roleplay. One team of children gets to play as the US military and the other gets to be Iraqi civilians. They can finish the lesson once they play-execute Osama Bin Laden lol
