A-MEN. God rest their souls.

Hijacking and crashing three (at least...) planes at once? World Trade Center and Pentagon destroyed? Man, if I didn't saw this on TV, I wouldn't believe it...
It's more like a movie than reality (no offence to anyone).
my friend told me about this in third hour, and I wouldn't believe him til my teacher turned on the news...:( God rest their souls, and may the Lord smite those who caused this to happen!
Something of this scale had to be seen to be believed.
I've lost count of the number of times I've seen the second crash on TV.
All I can think when I see that is what must have been going through the passengers minds when that happened and that I've just seen 100 people die. It's just incomprehensible.
No, seriously. I couldn't believe it. I didn't WANT to believe it. I just kept thinking that they'd announce something like that over the PA system, or I'd have heard more about it if something of that magnitude happened. Meanwhile they didn't announce it til the end of 4th hour...
yeah, i saw the second crash and it looked like a movie or video game or something. at first i thought it was some computer simulation as to what happened, then i realized it was real footage. i think this is a reality check for the country of how real total war is, and that no one is safe from it.
i think this just reminds us of our own mortality. How something as simple as getting on a plain to go to work can turn into you worst nightmare...one you will never awake from. They didnt even have a chance. Lets just hope that the ones the need punsihed get what they diserve. May god have mercy on their soles. And god bless all those people that died.
Don't wanna sound offensive (don't see why I should), but why pray? I mean, without 'Gods' a lot of this would never have happened.
Sorry if it sounds irrelevent but I find it offensive and degrading to human intelligence.
As for the attack, it's horrific. Regards to victims, and all of us. It could happen anywhere...
We can only hope it doesn't happen again.
That's sick. If you disagree with religion, you can. But don't insult us for believing in it.
And what do you mean, genious? This ain't no religous attack.
I don't think he was insulting anyone for their religion, he was just expressing that he feels religion is (at least partly) to blame for today's events. I don't agree with that, but I believe that's what he was saying, and I don't think he was trying to flame anyone. At least have the respect to do the same.
My heart and prayers are with all those that have died or been injured by these attacks. I hope that whoever is behind this is prepared for the absolute hell that they've just set in motion..
I think by now they are paying.
A pack of cruise missiles have been sent into Kabul the Afghan capital.
The explosions have just been reported on BBC News Online.
i'll just put it this way:
"by the end of the month, there will be one less country to worry about"
I can well believe that.
Though it would be handy if the culprit was confirmed first.
Just want to echoe my sentiments about todays terrible events.
Such a tragic waste of innocent lives and even though I am relatively new here my thoughts go out especially to any members of this board who might be suffering from the events first hand be it through loss of friends or family.
It was surely a terrible event. I truly feel sorry for anyone affected by this horrible series of attacks. I still can't believe that four commercial aircraft were hijacked.
As for the explosions in Kabul, the news over here has been reporting that there has been no U.S. attacks against anyone at this point.
That's what they want you to think. I sincerely doubt it wasn't us.
and even if it was us, I don't blame them!
I mean com'on someone just made a personal threat to they united states and basically said our defenses sucked and we couldn't do anything about it, I would be agitated to.
...to all you europeans thinking us americans are overreacting with our threats, imagine if you will:
4 European flights are hijacked with mostly europeans on them. Two fly into the london tower, bringing it down, along with most buildings around it. Another smashes into the house of parliament, and the other misses it's target (wherever your equivalent of Camp David is), but still kills many europeans on the flight.
wouldn't you look to all your enemies who've terrorized you in the past with anger?
>>...to all you europeans thinking us americans are overreacting with our threats, imagine if you will:
Have I missed something? Who says the US is over-reacting??
This is it fellas. Armageddon is at hand. Which arab mullah
should we bomb first? I say we start with Calgary, then move
on to more important targets. :)
rick barclay
You have to make sure that the terrorists are done first. Like I said, they could have a nucular bomb there in the US ready to take out the country if the US retaliates???

how can you say that? there are probobly many innocent people in those countries that have nothing to do with this whole thing. yes, punish those directly resposible, but don't take anymore innocent lives.Quote:

Or biological stuff. This could well end up as Armageddon.
I hope we're up to it.

**** You! The countries who harbor terrorists are declaring war against the USA. You can't hide behind your mothers skirts any more.Quote:

whatever, so kill the terrorists, not the innocent peopleQuote:

If I were you, I'd start heading for the desert. I don't know how to spell but I'm not talking about chocolate cake.
A criminal country that does not have civil law and will not aid the US to apprehend terrorists is declaring war. These countries are barbarian countries, not innocent.
Our goal is to remove the terrorist threat, not to kill numerous innocent civilians and still probably miss the terrorists. Actual thought has to be put into any actions taken prior to doing anything stupid.
..Thats supposing that the USA will still be there by tomorrow.
So is your solution to make a quick and stupid decision, and end up with the United Nations extremely ticked off at us and then be in a worse place than we are now? Interesting plan, but I don't see its effectiveness.
Ken, here is a news article 2 days old (sept. 9, 2 days prior to the attack on the U.S.) about fighting in Kabul. This fighting in Afghanistan has not started in the last 12 hours. It started well before the attack. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/a...167307&sType=1Quote:

I live in Utah. The local news has been going
on and on about terrorism and if it'll affect
the 2002 Winter Olympics. Hmm. The last time the
Olympics were in the US, there was a bombing...
Ack! I can't remember the difference between
"affect" and "effect"...
Hehe. That's funny. Chocolate Cake...heheQuote:

No, it looks like they are finding out who is responsible, don't jump to conclusions, there are enough carrot crunchers around here as it is.
It's not likely that the US is going to get wiped out but it is possible. The US is mobilizing the military right now. Something like 5000 or more Americans were killed. Next week another 5000 will get killed perhaps.
This is all speculation, people! don't you understand the difference? Dean - those numbers have no weight behind them - you have no proof; you're just stirring people up.
I agree with rick - maybe we should bomb Calgary :p
rick: on a note specific to another thread - the person you told me to PM made a post last night at around 7 EST. I'm sure he's fine.
static - you used it right. affect is a verb. effect is a noun.
No comment
I never said that I was giving exact figures but they are sure not baseless. You are a real communist, are you german or something? Do you think you own this place? Why are you an American Govtcheez?
No, I'm not a Communist, but so what if I am? I'm German by blood, but my family's been in the States since the 1600s.
I'm an American because I was born here, I've lived here my whole life, and I respect our laws and customs. I'm an American for all the same reasons you are not.
Thanks for the compliment. :)Quote:

I live in the all around best country in the world. I can see communism in your behaviour. You are naturally against freedom. You are half way between burying your head in the sand and deleting personal freedom like the communists and able to speak like an American.
Indeed.
And as I quite clearly stated I didn't mean to be offensive. I'm entitled to my own beliefs. I'm not insulting anyone at all, I have nothing against whatever you might think.
Just wanted to say my bit.
And btw I don't think any cruise missiles have been fired anywhere :D
Jesus, the level of stupidity in this thread is unreal.
First, no, the US has NOT attacked anyone. The attacks in Afg. were perpatrated by AIRCRAFT, not cruise missles. While we did have aircraft in range, we would not have used aircraft to take out a single target (an ammo dump no less). The fighting is more of the continuing civil war over there. The US HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. They only said that about 100 times.
Wan Valdez, to be blunt, you are being a complete jackass. First, do you know the definition of Communisim?? Because I do, and no one on this thread has acted anything like a communist. If you are calling Govtcheez a communist because he is (in your eyes only) defending the Middle East, then you are way off base. The countries over there ARE NOT communist. Most are dictatorships. So, if you are going to insult him, do it right, and call him a dictatortorian (umm... or whatever a pro-dictator calls him/herself).
Alot of innocent people died yesterday. It probably won't be 5,000, but it'll be in the thousands. We should all be outraged by that. We should all be disturbed and upset. But we SHOULD NOT jump to conclusions and start wiping out the innocent along with the guilty. Saying that we need to wipe whole nations off the face of the earth is just plain stupid. So what if it was Ben Laddin? SO WHAT? We should go and wipe whatever country he's been living in off the map? We should nuke it and everyone in it? HELL NO. Should we strike that nation's military, its government, those that have helped hide him, and bring them all to their knees? Yes we should. But we should do it in a manner that doesn't throw more lives away. While there are plenty of people in the Middle East cheering at our loss, there were plenty more sitting in their homes disgusted by their countrymen.
Being in the same nation as whoever was responsible for this DOES NOT make everyone in the nation guilty. However, if the nation's government was helping or hiding this person, that nation's government is just as guilty, and we should do what we would do to any country we are at war with: target it's military and government installations and level them. When we go to war with a nation, we *usually* do not target civilian targets. We target military targets. We target government installations. We try to cripple the nation with as little loss of life as possible. The goal is to cripple the government, not wipe out that nations population.
Everyone needs to take a deep breath and calm down. I'm as ticked about this as anyone. I want blood. But I don't want to kil a bunch of innocent people to get it. I just want those responsible for this, whatever their roles in it, to be punished. And they will be. These attacks won't go without retribution. Those responsible for this will get what they deserve in this life and the afterlife. God help anyone who gets caught in the middle.
Finally! Some sense shines through!
i agree
DannyBoy you are probably a Afghan terrorist. Likely a Bin Lauden member. I know that the stupidity on this board is extrememly high and that there are a lot of idiots, infact the majority, I don't disagree with you on that point. I think you yourself is among the most stupid.
I suggest you turn yourself in right away.
Please Rick, don't bomb Canada just because of one little Dean...
Most Canadians are quite intelligent, friendly and compassionate people.
Yeah we are all lame ducks.
This actually made me laugh. Hard. I don't think I've laughed that hard since this started. Thank you.Quote:

For the record, I am NOT an Afghanian. Therefore, I could not be an Afghanian terrorist. I am, and have been for my entire life, an American citizen. The difference between you and me is that I have a brain, you quite obviously do not.
Let me reiterate, slaughtering more innocents will NOT help anything. Anyone who thinks it will is acting out of rage or is, like Wan here, just trying to stir people up, which is a sick thing to do at a time like this...
It looks to me like Wan Valdez is exercising his freedom of speech. This is a characteristic of free thinking people. Get used to it.
It looks to me like Wan Valdez and Witch_King are exhibiting schizophrenic behavior. This is a characteristic of flame-throwing jerks. Get used to it.
Dean - you're not fooling anyone. Using a different name to flame people just makes you seem like a huge coward.
Unlike you, I'm not trying to fool anyone. I have more than one computer in my home.
You're not, huh? Why are you posting under two different names and talking about each name like they're different people?
> I have more than one computer in my home.
So do I. Don't think for one moment that that makes you special in any way.
How am I trying to fool anyone?
When I go upstairs I'm Wan Valdez and when I'm downstairs I'm Witch_King because thats what cookies dictate. I don't think I need to explain this. I provide my point of view and that's it. I don't ask anyone to join me and I don't have to kiss ass like yourself and delete posts. That's just the way I see it.
Wow! It's like the dimensional gate of bastard-ness!
When your point of view ceases to include calling people on this board terrorists or making posts with so many words censored that it's unreadable, I'll stop deleting your posts.
The cookies can dictate you're the same person anywhere. That's not an excuse. The cookies dictate I'm Govtcheez whether I'm at work, home, or at a friend's.
You still didn't answer my question. How can you maintain two accounts on here and refer to them as separate people but not call that trying to fool people?
That's just the way I see it.
Wow, suddenly I'm not the biggest dean-hater anymore...how sad. an era has ended...
ooo, taking out canada could be a good thing. Since we can't get directly to dean (or we're just too lazy too) let's blow the whole country off the map!
Oh, wait. now I sound stupid as some of the people here. 1-1=0, people. (as in a life minus a life gets you nowhere)
Ok, so I admit I overreacted yesterday, but I was incredibly ........ed off.
Simply because I don't worry about my image. I sharpen my pencils only when they get dull.
I don't use abusive language until my posts get delete. Sure I do some flaming but in almost every case that person had flamed me. I don't believe in deleting freedom. I was raised in a democratic society and I believe that people can be self governing.
And BTW I don't think that too many people know about democracy because you have to use it, not just live in a democratic country.
OK - 1st of all, none of us live in a democracy. In a country this size, it'd be mob rule.
A democracy? Canada's a largely socialist gov't, just in case you wanted to know...
maybe he has multiple personalities?
If i hadn't read this post before responding i would have said exactly that.Quote:

DanMan you said it exactly as i want to say it but i decided to censure myself due to the fact that I'm a Moderator. Its not really polite for me to call people idiots... even if they are. Thank you DanMan, you made me feel a lot better.
Dean, you're a lot of work.
Canada is not a socialist country at least not the Canada that I live in, I'm not sure which one you are thinking of.
In the past decade Canada was more of a socialist in the sense that the government controled many of the factors of production however it has long since become a state capitalist country full of private industry. Canada preceded from an affirmation of an establishment, namely Great Britian and France, where as America was born out of revolution. Canada has not been an independant country for long, well for a little over a hundred years but that is not long in terms of history.
This is the best place to live. It's the second largest country in the world next to Russia. I'm extremely fortunate to live in Canada. Wouldn't want to live anywhere else in the world.
Witch_King, although you've said that you haven't ever agreed with anything i've said, i have on occasion agreed with some of your statements; The above post is one of them. Well put.
Alright, I retract my socialist statement - although I still thought you guys had socialized health care...
working in the area and going to school there i can't believe it
i grieve for the lost of the many friend and family members people have lost. and the the brave men and woen who risked there life saving others...
donating blood, food and money just don't seem enough... i wish i can go and help dig people out of the wreckage....
but all i can do is pray and please people pray for the souls of the people we have lost and pray that more people are found alive...pray that god be merciful to those who sinned and passed away without being "saved"...and may god have pity on those who have done this terrible act... :( :( :(
Every country is really anoyed about this: AMERICA Australia, Parts of Europe, Britan....whoever did this isn't gonna be around for much longer
