See, this I'm not so sure about - the thing is an object, an artifact - what it represents exists beyond the thing itself. While the Liberty Bell is cool, I don't think it's loss would end liberty any more than World Trade stopped with 9-11.
Somehow locking up the Bell seems a greater win for the terrorists than blowing it up - at least to me anyway.
