Brazil is a largely pacifist country in South America. Our last war was fought against Paraguay in the 19th century, when we pretty much leveled the then enemy country, once the most developed in the region, today a haven for contrabandists and counterfeiters. There were also some internal conflicts througout brazilian history, a bloody conservative dictatorship in the 20th century - though not as bloody as in Argentina or Chile - and today we witness a daily struggle between police forces and drugs and arms dealers, robbers and the like in big cities. That said, most brazilians wouldn't ever imagine our country going to war nowadays. It's just... Not brazilian! The september 11 attacks on World Trade Center and the Pentagon were a shock for all of us, as it was for most people in the world. Everything stopped as we held our breath in front of our TV sets. Friends called each other asking "Did you see it? I can't believe!". Most people felt compassion for the dead, their families and all americans. On the other hand, many people did not.
