9/11

Yuuup, there's atrocities going on all day everyday... each one effecting people and societies in different ways.

Other than ourselves (of course...), it seems as if Humans might be at least a little flawed inherently...

In which case you agree with me. America is not special.

....To tell you the truth Missy our Armed Forces weren't allowed to "step on the gas" in Iraq and Afghanistan, we're efficient, but it wasn't total warfare, if we did that you'd REALLY hate us.

THOSE DAMN MIDDLE EASTERNERS STOLE OUR OIL AND PUT IT UNDER THEIR SANDS!!!"


our new hobby, bombing brown people.

I don't recall any bitching when we took out the Jerrys!

OK by Missy's view its alright to bomb white people...just so you know.

You're Russian? I kid, I kid.

Yes mam. Not special and therfore not excempt from mourning or giving rememberance.

not exempt from getting special treatment - which it is
and not exempt from my pain is worse than yours - which is what they're doing.

As for the original topic, I don't think it's surprising that Americans, and Westerners in general, are making a big deal out of the 10th anniversary of Sept. 11. It was a shocking, traumatic day, and because of all the new technologies and media coverage it was probably the most documented event of its kind in human history. I still remember the awful feeling in my stomach as I watched it all unfold live on CNN that morning...

Also, the cynical side of me is not surprised that every media outlet with the rights to 10 seconds of footage it going to be running it constantly in an attempt to boost their ratings.

Whether you support their actions or not, what the United States has done, both domestically and internationally, since 9/11 doesn't take away from that fact that it was a horrible day and one deserving of rememberance and reflection.

Whethe the nazi's could have beaten the ruskies is debatable... But they certaintly couldn't have won a war fighting on both fronts. I'm sure we've had this discussion before!!

What special treatment? It's the tenth anniversary and seeing as we're a western country, closely allied with the usa - you'd think we'd see some coverage.

a number of military historians believe they were at breaking point anyway.

I believe you nuked the little yellow people in 2nd WW.....twice

Yup and we firebombed Dresden which was worse than 2 nukes.

Besides, the yellow dogs surprise attacked us at Pearl Harbor and we gave them 2 opportunities to surrender before we dropped those bombs too!

Without US involvement (which started ILLEGALLY by the way!) D-day never happens, the Battle of Britain keeps going on and perhaps the Jerrys take Moscow. Picking a fight with the USSR during the winter was a poor decision. England wasn't hurting the Krauts until the US (and some REAL Generals) got in the trenches.
