Same here. I note that the palistinians have claimed responsibility,
but then again they *always* do that. This may backfire on them. After
something like this we may go to war if neccessary to wipe out these

That's right; it does look like a characteristically Muslim M.O. You
know many Muslim bozos believe they go straight to heaven if they die
in a Holy War. There is therefore little doubt in my mind that what
happened this morning would have been extremely unlikely if religion
hadn't been behind it.

Nothing is more sickening than watching the maen, women and children I just saw
on the news dancing and cheering in the streets.
I understand, as much as I can, the anti-americanism that is prevalent all over
the world. Hell, it's practically fashionable in some places. But I can never
understand cheering because thousands of people have been killed. People who
were simply trying to get from one end of their own country to another on an
airplane. What kind of thrill can you get from their deaths?
People going to work. Yeah! We want them dead.
I just don't understand how anyone can look so happy over such devastation.
I wonder how high the terrorism body count has to get before there is a
response.

That's the problem. Instead of looking for justice - which
goes both ways - people want vengeance. I thought the world
had learned from the IRA and the British that this mentality
was the problem. Obviously not.

there won't be one found while both sides are willing to

I think that was the WTC bombing in 1993. 6 dead, roughly 1000 injured. The
death toll here (by all accounts, 2 jumbos, 2 smaller jets + a building where at
least 50.000 work), is definately in the early thousands.

That's exactly what I was thinking. It's almost fortunate that it wasn't
later, as much as you can use that word in such a case. It reminds me of
reports of an earthquake here a few years back. Much more devastation would
have happened had it been an hour later.
>>A lot of people managed to evacuate the Trade Center toward the river.
>>But it will still be very, very bad. (Interview with trade center

I was watching a woman who has now been through TWO of these bombings in the
WTC. I can't even imagine. She reports that the evacuation was calm. Imagine
the numbness of having been through this twice.
This is an act of war. Plain and simple. If we donot respond with some
sort of devastating retaliation, we might as well hand them the controls to
our ICBM network, place our heads between our legs, and kiss our collective
asses goodbye.
I agree that this is a harsh and like reaction, but what can one propose
that would eliminate this threat or worse ones in the future? My sister and
her family just visited me last week. That could've been them in one of
those hijacked suicide planes.
My sympathies and condolensces go out to all of those injured, killed, or
know them.

I somehow doubt that. Besides... you can't start killing people because you
"think" they might be behind it. Hell, there are like 2 billion suspects.
Revenge is not the main motivation for retaliation in such a case either.
Preventing them from ever doing it again has to be key.
It won't be the Palestinians: this is the anniversary of the
Israeli-Palestinian peace treaty, and it's in their interest
to keep it.
The culprit will most likely be those who oppose the treaty,
such as Osama Bin Laden, who works out of Afghanistan, a
country the US is still sending financial support to.
I wonder what it will take for the US to admit supporting
the Shah of Iran was a mistake. Recall that fundy Islam
got its start in Iran, where the brutal dictatorship of the
Shah left religious lunacy as the only opposition. The
Islamic terrorists of today are the illegitimate sons of
Ayatollah Khomeini.
But there is a limit. Look at the amazing progress in the
Israeli/Palestinian problems. Fifty years of contempt, terrorism, war,
strife, and hatred. They have tried cease fires and peace so many times,
that I laugh when I hear about another attempt.
When the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, that was a declaration of war. When
a group or government bombs the governmental and financial institutions of a
country, that is also a declaration of war.
There is enough of a surplus of humans on this planet to justify the
elimination of a few million zealous barbarians. Just remember that they
initiated this atrocity.
Robert Templeton
PFLP, Taleban ambassador to Pakistan, Arafat and the leader of
Hamas have all "condemned" the attack. Palestinians are dancing
on the streets. Afghanistan is partying. Methinks i will get
into muslim-bashing in the very near future.
If the major terrorist groups are not eliminated (and i mean
fucking *eliminated*) now, regardless of cost, and regardless of
whether they were responsible for this particular attack, this
won't be the last of it's kind. Remember when plane hijacking
first came "fashionable"? Everybody and their uncle got in on
it, until it was shown that it wasn't worth it.
I know one thing though. I wouldn't want to be named Muhammed
tonight in NY...
I know, i was working from the very first reports. 50000 workers
in the twin towers, and 150000 tourist visitors on average per
day.
I don't really mind (yes i fucking do) the attack on pentagon,
there might be some justification for that, as it is a military
installation, but the WTC?
If these bastards insist on living in the stone-age, let's bomb
them there.
I'm certain that they culprits will be discovered. Only several terrorist
groups are even capable of an attack of this level.
What sort of prevention would you suggest? Close our borders to all
immigration and emigration? Have strip searches and full baggage searches
for all flights? Discontinue traffic in and out of the United States?
Diligence in curtailing these events would be costly in freedom, trade,
finances, time, and many other facets of the operation of our country.
Revenge is not the reason I suggest. I suggest retaliation in order to
remove the scurge that allows this behavior to continue. Yes, there are
others out there, but allowing them to continue unimpeded is just to allow
for the next larger attack to occur.
The loss of life in these attacks alone justifies (yes, justifies)
retaliatory action against the proper responsible party.

The "missile defense" thing isn't really intended to work. It's something the
government is using to keep the defense industry alive (Prez'dent Junior has
some senior advisors, for example--both are in high-up administrative
positions over the Air Force and Navy...and both of these men are high up in
the corporate structure at the two biggest defense companies--one supplies
planes and weapons for the Navy, the other for the Air Force.

Additionally, it would be wise to express caution about who's behind
this. Remember, the first reports out of Oklahoma City speculated that
Arab terrorists were responsible, when it was our dear departed friend
Tim McVeigh (& Co).
There are groups in the United States who are capable of and have the
desire to cripple the government. It could be one of our own.
Thanks.

Ditto.
Phonelines from most of Europe to the US are cut off.
Amen. This is a direct act of war on the US. We have all the justification
we could ever want to go to military action against the perps and any
accessories who shelter them.
If we back up, if we give the least sign of weakness after this, we
might just as well invite Osama Bin Laden over to take control
of the government because that'll be the only way to keep him from
trashing us, one city at a time.
Japan once attacked us in such a cowardly fashion. They lived
to regret it. So will these scum, wherever and whoever they are.

Just heard on the TV it's confirmed that 10,000 are dead
minimum. Keep in mind they only had a few minutes on one building and
less than half an hour on the other to evacuate 25,000 in each
building. If the death count is less than 25,000 people I may start

Bomb the crap out of the Taleban military. They won't be able to hold power.

Agreed. Immediate retaliation against the groups capable, planning, and which
have carried out these attacks, is a priority.

I'm stunned. Give me a cross. I want to be a christian. I want to believe it
can't be that high........ god damn....
I hate to be insensitive at a time like this, but Arabs see America as the
enemy who drops bombs on them. The Gulf War and its quiet continuation has
killed a lot of civilians. I can understand people in that position being
glad that America have had a taste of "their own medicine".
*However*, you can't take revenge *for* innocent civilians *on* innocent
civilians. I just wish we could get out of the mentality that sees civilians
as merely the possessions of our enemy and not as human beings with lives.
Please don't respond to this with more indiscriminate bombings, it'll not
help.

I'm with you. It's all the guy knows to express what he feels.
I'd be calling for prayer myself if I thought it'd help.
But who started the Gulf War? Iraq's army illegally took possession of
another country, Kuwait, in a ploy to take control of the oil cartel in
order to cripple the West. They refused, after numerous requests, to
release their control of that country, even as international forces amassed
in Arabia. Sadam was instituting and enacting genocide on a minority group
within his country. He was also in the process of constructing
ground-to-ground missiles equipped with biological weapons. The Gulf War
forces should've removed and replaced the government.
I have no sympathy for the ravages of their country during and after these
actions by them.

Many, if not most people are behind their desks already at that hour. Some
businesses open a 8:00 or 8:30. Plus a lot of people get to work early to
eat breakfast and yap together. These buildings were probably 90% full.
This makes me sick. The responsible parties, their families and anyone that

While it's ironic to call for prayer in what is likely the result of a "holy
war", I understand the need to find comfort. If it is comforting for some to
pray, so be it. For me, quiet reflection interrupted by moments of panic for
several friends, and an anger I'm not used to seeing in myself are probably
going to occupy the rest of my day.

Did you look in the water? It looked like a war movie.
Here in California, some cities are slowly turning into ghost towns. The news
is showing all of the closures. Aside from the major airports there are
closures of all financial institutions in LA, bus stations, some schools,
amusment parks (what kind of a sicko would attack Disneyland), all Major League
Baseball games have been canceled as well as concerts and awards shows,
shopping centers have closed.
I went to bed and woke up with a migraine and didn't go to work. Now it's
mostly nausea.
I wonder if the leaders who are condemning this and hiding Bin Laden will give
him up. He predicted this, only on an even larger scale. That's what is
scary. Once we find out the plans behind these things, we usually find out
that they were even bigger than we thought.
I am worried about some people whom were supposed to be coming back from Boston
this morning. I am anxiously waiting to hear from someone reliable about their
flight number.
I don't actually have that authority (wry smile)
I do understand the sentiment. But you don't see Americans dancing in the
streets after we bomb someone. It's the shear joy that can be seen in their
faces that bothered me.

Speculations at this point in time are moot. I know Americans don't have
need for anything more than excuses to bomb the Mideast, but still I
would expect some rationality to remain in this forum. Hell, do you know
how many enemies the USA has these days? It could be anyone from the
Chinese trying to be 'funny' about the spy plane incident from a few
months back, to the first serious terrorist attack from ecoterrorists
pissed at the whole Kyoto fiasco. And I won't go into the conspiracy
theories you could spin about this being a PR coup by the Pentagon to
give a reason for increased budget in the Star Wars thingee.
Speculations are nothing more. There's no evidence at this point.

Justice is a human construction. Even-handedness is sometimes impossible to attain, so we have
to err on the side of forgiveness and non-retaliation if we want a better world.

100 cruise misiles carpet bombing the palistinian territories would do the
trick.
Or perhaps a nuke or two.

There are indications that this is a religious group's work.
It has been pointed out that in order to crash these planes would take a
suicide pilot. With very few exceptions, those are done by religious groups
who feel that they will get some sort of reward in the afterlife for their
actions.

Or throw parades, like the Yanks did for their Gulf War fighters after they comitted
multiple acts condemned by the UN, such as poisoning Iraqi water supply?
You're doing exactly what the people who just attacked America have done -
assume that every civilian in the country of your enemy is your enemy.

That it will. I think that we need to be methodical in order to be
sure that we find out who did this, and that we don't misidentify
them, but once we know, I doubt that we're going to hold back in
exacting revenge, nor do I think that any country that might be
harboring those who did this will be able to excuse themselves from
retaliation.
It would seem that some terrorists have come to think that America
does not have the resolve to respond to these kinds of attacks, but I
think that they are going to learn that, once we are sufficiently
provoked, we are not a force to be trifled with.
It will be ugly. It will be very ugly, indeed.
