Hey all, it's on every channel what happened in the States today. I hope they catch whoever is responsible for these actions. All those innocent people...
Good luck to everyone who has family and friends living in New York or any of the other attacked places, I hope they are alright.
Tyler, when you're around let us know if you are alright please!

I'm alright Day-Z thanks for asking. My step father works in the building and he was lucky to get out with his life. My friend's brother works across the street from the place and he watched people leap to their deaths. This is a major major tragedy and you wonder how people get so angry at each other that they have to resort to killing anyone, much less thousands of innocent people.
I hope everyone else is ok.
Ofcourse babe, how could I forget about you? Glad to hear you are allright, let me know when there's anything new okay?

It was a big mistake to bomb the pentagon. Because now the CIA is probably going to assasssinate that terrorist.
It really is a dark day.
And I wish every body in NY the best of luck.

My condolances to all americans.
Can you say "World War Three", boys and girls?
It's days like this that you appreciate a pro-gun red-neck "kill em all" president like dubya Bush. If anyone's gonna make an international incident out of this, it's him.. I fear him more than the arabs.

This won't result in another world war. I doubt it will result in a war at all. If this is a Palastinian terrorist attack than we have no one to declayer war against. If Bin Laden is responsible than its likely that Afganistan might give him up. Even if they dont this is between one country and another, the whole world has no reason to get involved.
Every bit of anger in me says they should get these guys and feed them to a meat grinder a minute at a time and drop a nuetron bomb on their country so they can watch. But i honestly think we should just bring them to justice. We're better than these people.
spyder---i've got nothing to say to you
whyatt---it was an international incident the moment it happened

Virtual nyc; then dont say anything to me.
face it, if it happens in america, it is a national incident, with the exception of oklahoma.
because america is the best countrym the biggest superpower, or some stupid shit like that.
our allies have already said that they would support us.
but i do agree with whyatt, i do believe this could very well lead to the big ole ww3.
now im not a supporter of bush, or any pres. for that matter, but i do think that we do need to bomb whatever country supported this.
but dont bomb them to cripple them, bomb them to annihilate them.
cause you know one message that was sent with this? it was the message that the u.n. and all the peace treaties,trade embargo's all that horseshit, nobody respects it.
come on look ar iraq, saddam is still over there jerkin the un around.
america set itself up as the big authority, we need to keep that image up, or its all going to hell

Something happening between 2 countries is always noticed by the world these days. And an incident like this will affect world policies forever. Things changed dramatically yesterday. I just hope things changed for the better, in the long run.

This is what we know now. Two planes smashed into both towers. One plane crashed into the Pentagon. One plane crashed in a field. The planes that crashed into the WTC were successful. The plane that crashed into the Pentagon was originally meant to kill the President and destroy the White House. Now the plane that crashed into the field...
A man called his wife from the plane to tell her what was happening. They confrenced the call with a 911 operator. That is when he learned of the other kamikaze like attacks. That man told the other passengers what was going on and what was going to happen. They willingly chose to die in order to keep from being used as a weapon.
Also. A bomb was found on the Washington Bridge before it went off killing untold thousands trying to get home. An attack against Air Force One failed to work; details unrevealed.
Out of all the carnage the terrorist/monsters only succeeded once. Only ONE goal was accomplished. We were very lucky yesterday people, our entire nation was almost crippled by a dozen people who were willing to die to accomplish their goals armed with one inch razor blades, and it may have been saved by one man who learned about the WTC and the people who followed him into death.
Now the truly sad part. We are all at war. This is just the beginning. The next attack can be anywhere at anytime and kill anybody. It is time to unite and stand firm. To put all, ALL, differences behind. If we do not stand together now and forever this can be the beginning of the end of the United States of America. I actually heard people talking today where I work about moving their kids to Canada to keep them away from the draft just in case it comes back. They were ready to jump ship now, at the very begging of the coming conflict.
I am ready to die like that man, giving my life so that our freedom stays intact. I am a natural cynic, but I do believe in the overall inner strength of Americans.
Jeremy Glick, the man who died to prevent the terrorists from killing even more people, should never be forgotten.
Also, nation wide people who have ancestry from the Middle East, or only happen to have a dark complexion, are being harassed and attacked by frightened fools. These are our brothers and sisters who have been in this country for generations. Most have a deeper respect for our rights then those of us who consider ourselves ?real? Americans because they know what it is like to have no freedom. This is what the bastards wanted. If we are to survive that means that this type of atrocity has to stop immediately. I call on all of you who read this to speak up publicly and openly against all of those you see submitting to fear and ignorance. We will be harassed also, and we may be physically attacked, but we have to do everything that we can to stop this degeneration of our society IMEDIATELY! No matter the place, no matter the circumstance, no matter the person. The situation is too fragile now and evil spreads when good people do nothing.
Some of you might remeber me from a year or so ago. I am posting this mesage at as many boards as I can tonight. It isn't much, but it is all I can do tonight.

NATO passed Article Five today, which basically says any attack on one member is an attack on all.
My own thoughts are that one act of terrorism in this country should be viewed as meaning potential ones on other western countries. Terrorists won't be afraid to do such a thing to other countries, if they know they can get away with it on us.
I do think that the US was attacked, not "freedom". We're hated for specific reasons, not democracy itself.

Whyat....I dislike Bush Jr. with a passion but at the moment he is doing the right thing..
The US government suspects Bin Laden BUT we have not done a "blind "counter-attack"" against anyone....as Bush said himself...evidence is being collected
For all intents this is starting to look like the US is going to start its own "Holy War"....and its called "kick some Terrorist ASS" no matter where they be...and it will not be just the US but the majority of Nations of the world.
Think about it, Terrorism happens and can only happen because some nations harbor these Terrorists. The majority of these nations citizens are INNOCENT..and the US does not go after citizens of ANY nation.
So what can we do? Sit here and die? Or strike back and topple the GOVERNMENTS that support the Terrorists and bring the Terrorists up on war crimes.
For now..this is EXACTLY what the US government is building Allies for, and this inlcludes Asian, Middle Eastern, and European military support.
For all intents this is a war on terrorism and any government that supports terrorism in any fashion.
It stops now....we as a world have sat on our asses and watched INNOCENTS die for close to thirty years in what the Terrorists THEMSELVES call a war.
As the Japanese learned in World War 2, once you piss off the American people you have a very big problem on your hands.
------------------
On a computer geek site I found this VERY intresting post by someone arguing AGAINST non-violence:
non-violence as a defense in wartime?, posted 13 Sep 2001 by StevenRainwater
Under the right circumstances, the non-violence that Ghandi suggested was the right course of action and probably the only thing that could have worked. The problem with invoking non-violence here is that Ghandi was dealing with rational people oppressed by a rational government, not a nation at war with a world-wide group of violent religous fanantics. If you seriously believe that most (or any) of these principles can be used to defend yourself from a suicidal fanatic who intends to kill you, you're sadly, perhaps fataly mistaken.
>>Gandhi's ten principles of nonviolence
>>1. Humiliating or deliberately provoking your opponent invites violence;
The victims of this attack had never had dealings of any sort with the individuals and/or countries that plotted and payed for their murder. If these terrorists have a gripe with some policy or other of the US, this is not a civilized way to deal with it. This is simply a criminal act by religious fanatics and an act of war by the nation(s) that supported them.
>>2. Knowing your facts and arguments well helps avoid violence;
So you think if we'd offered to have a nice little public debate full of facts and arguments with them, they'd have landed their planes and turned themselves in? Think about what you're suggesting - it just doesn't make any sense.
>>3. If you are open about your cause your opponent is less likely to be violent;
In what way is America not open about its cause? I think, rather, it is because America is so open and free that these Islamic nuts have said they intend to destroy it. All you have to do is look at some of the Islamic web sites (someone posted links to a few in diary entries a day or so ago). They are condeming America because we allow our women the freedom to go around with their heads uncovered, we allow our citizens the freedom to listen to music, choose their own religion, and Allah forbid, we allow dancing. What these people want is to turn the world into some sort of Islamic prison-camp like Afghanistan and, at the moment, the US has been openly standing in their way so we're a target. And how do you reason with a group willing to kill that many people to save the world from the evils of music and dancing?
>>4. Look for common ground between you and your opponents to promote trust and understanding;
I think the point you're missing if you think this is possible is that these people don't believe there is any common ground. Either we all convert to their religion and allow them to rule us or they'll just have to kill us all - I don't know how many ways to say it: these are not rational people, they are religious fanatics. Besides, what kind of "common ground" do you look for with someone flying a plane full of innocent people into an office building that's going to convince him not to do it?
>>5. Do not judge others harder than yourself (alternatively do not judge others);
Fine, we'll do unto them exactly as I'd want it done unto me if I start flying planes into the office buildings of people whose beliefs I disagree with.
>>6. Try to trust your opponent. They will sense this trust;
Yes, these sensed our trust and took advantage of it to kill many of us. If you've been watching the news, they're learning that these killers lived in the US for months as they planned this. They went to US schools to learn to fly the planes, some of them even stayed in the homes of US residents. The US is a country that welcomes people of every race and belief - the struggle now will be to continue to welcome and trust strangers.
>>7. Compromise on inessential items to promote resolution;
You mean like offer to let them blow up just one building full of people if they leave the other alone? Uh, sorry, that's no way to deal with terrorists.
>>8. Sincerity helps convert your opponent;
I sincerly think these people are evil and that it's well past time the world did something about it. If you want to help us, you're welcome to join us. If you're afraid to stand up to them, that's fine too but please stay out of our way.
>>9. By making personal sacrifice you show your sincerity;
To suggest that the US hasn't been making personal sacrifices in the last few days is just plain insulting.
>>10. Avoid exploiting weakness in your opponent. Aim for integrity, not simply to win.
It was the Islamic terrorists who were exploiting weakness here, not us. We aim for integrity and we will win anyway. Thank you very much.
>>Nonviolence is the respond.
Sorry, doing nothing won't help. It will only lead to more and larger terrorist attacks if they realize that no one is going to hold them responsible for their actions. The US must respond with force and destroy these terrorist organizations and, if necesary, bring the countries who supported them to justice as well.

------------------
The world has greiviously underestimated the United States of America. Those of us who were against the death penalty three days ago are for all out war now. Those of us who agreed with the death penalty three days ago (myself included) want everyone who was involved with this attack dead. Congress is completely united in a single goal with the President and the American people. That goal is wide spread death of all who attacked us and supported our attackers. Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Beirut, Sieria, Israel, China, or China, we will invade, attack, bomb, quarintine, siege and obliterate any and all of them in our hate and need of retribution.
If we take on one Muslim nation the others will rise against us. Some have even more powerful allies like China and Russia who will not stand to lose their oil supplies to our bombs and who will try to stop us.
We have always heard that the USA is the strongest nation on the planet. It has almost become a cliche, but the world is about to remember how we got that title.
We have the means, the weapons, the people, and the will to kill everyone we can get our hands on with out any regard of the future.
God help us all.
Hi back at ya Whyatt. I read here every now and then, I just havent felt the need to post. I wish it was under better circumstances.

Hey John, I remember you! You're the bitch with big teeth! Errr, read that as; Response.Write(array_dictionary(1*10^6*rand(insult )+1))
Hi Johnny-boy. *wavies*
Neway, this has this far only been a national incident. Yes, the threat is global, but so far only one country has been physically affected by it. What I mean by international incident is that if any country's gonna make it into a war, it'll be the U.S. IMHO, this was meant to provoke a blind "counter-attack" to justify further bombings of random countries. Or something. Either which way, the speeches of George "Wild-child" Bush and his ministers scare me as fuck. "We will make no distinction between the people who did this and those who may be harbouring them."
Which means that if Dubya suspects bin laden and suspects that he's in Afghanistan, american government is gonan bomb the crap outta them and prolly kill thousands of innocents along with possible perpetrators. This is not going to stand, not by U.N standards OR by the arabis/islamic countries. That would lead us to full scale world-war.
All IMHO, of course.

"Everyone's looking for something, and the absent somebody else who knows what it is."
There will always be terrorists, just as sure as there will always be discontent people and bullies that prey on the weak. Like the guys that stole your lunch money in grade school (or, if that was the case, you). And with the easy access to the Internet, now everyone with the inclination to bomb a building and the pre-knowledge of connecting to the internet and using a search engine can do so.
I'm NOT arguing for non-violence, doing that in response of such a declaration of war would be foolish. But I'd sooner choose to bomb the white house than let Bush start a world-wide war with all arabic/islamic-countries. And that, boys and girls, is what's going to happen. The rest of the world is going to team up against the U.S for acting stupid. And trust me, they will. Just read the responses here to see how irrational people are acting. The American people are demanding blood, not guilty blood, just any blood. And I fear they'll get it. Arabic, as well as American.
A large snippet removed in all this, cause I?m at work and can't spend all day arguing on this topic. So you just get the opinion, not motivation for it.
------------------
"Everyone's looking for something, and the absent somebody else who knows what it is."
Haha, just read on a news site that the CNN images of celebrating palestinians were actually shot in -91 after the invasion of Kuwait. I have if possible even less confidence for the american news channels now. It's all about making headlines.
------------------
"Everyone's looking for something, and the absent somebody else who knows what it is."
hey Whyatt, Im would not be surprised if CNN grabed a old video and ran it....but remember the majority of Americans screaming for blood on TV ARE the very small minority...its all about the TV ratings http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
Most people I've meet just want the US and the World to lay the smack down on Terrorism NOT Islamic nations. The biggest problem with the Middle East is that Terrorists often support local governments with bribes, and Ive yet to hear of a Honest politician, no matter which race or creed.
And Whyatt, I hate to say this dood, but you havnt got a clue what the US is truly capable of, and Im not speaking with Nationalism, Im speaking in the fact that way to many in the world think the US goes off half cocked, and yet either do not understand or don't WANT to understand why we do things the way we do. Not that Im saying that the US government doesnt fuck up badly every so often but at least we have decided not to just sit there with our eyes shut and our fingers in our ears.
------------------
May god help us all if we in the US go in such a overboard reaction Clark as you suggest
The point im saying is that Terrorism ITSELF must die or at least crushed to the point where it is no longer a action that people who believe they have to "strike back" at nations that they feel have "wronged" them.
Hell, HONEST diplomatic discussions are the best solution but untill those who would use TERROR to impose their will on the world are put down with maximum ass kicking you will NOT see anyone talking about their differences AND simularities.
Just as the Nazi's killed Jews in Europe before and during World War 2 we have our modern day extremists in ALL religions from all the Aryan White Suprimests to all the myarid of Islamic Jihad Extremists and etc..
We must live in a peace forged by ALL nations on Earth, or the only peace we will have is if one nation controls the world with a Iron Fist or the Human race has exterminated itself...the two latter being the result not of war, but by Humanity's own inwillingness to stop itself from Genocide

"Dead or Alive" are our President's exact words. We will not go to war with all Islamic states, most are behind us. They are vicims of terrorism just as us. What scares me are not the arabic nations, but Afganastan's cheif supporter, China. We can not beat China.
