9/11 Fall of Babylon?

Bible Gateway Revelation 18:9-11
If one takes Revelation chapters 17 and 18, the fall of Babylon, to describe the catastrophic events of 9/11, what would follow from this interpretation?

Below I list a link to a scholarly view of this prophetic harbinger which does not consider 9/11 to 'fulfill' that particular prophecy:
Fall of Babylon

Is New York the capital of Babylon? What might this mean? In Bob Marley's lyrics, America is Babylon-ish---the fading Empire. Babylon System

Mammon Mammon
A mysterious entity. Scholars unsure of the etymology. Successive theologians and historians re-interpret the term to meaning anything from a 'devil' to a 'god'.
