Pardon me for using this forum but I didnt want this to get buried and I dont want to make a political statement but rather one of support.
I was downtown Manhattan in NYC this morning and what I seen was incredibly sad. Watching the events take place I couldnt believe what I was seeing the magnitude and loss of life was almost surreal. I had the feeling that this couldnt be happening like it was a bad trip. I wished it wasnt and prayed for the best only this was not going to be cause in the back of my mind I knew this was going to get worse.
I really cant tell you why I bring this to you here but maybe its because I wanted to warn you, to remind you to hold precious those that are dear to you cause today there are many who will forever regret they didnt say to those people they care for "I love you" or "Im really happy to have a friend like you". Lastly to anyone who may know someone who's life has changed today forever. We all share your hurt, today wasnt a day just for individual pain and loss but that we all lost a little today. Hopefully tomorrow we can gain something back.

i think that todays terroristic events was a simple display of the stupidity of the human race. Palistinians are fighting over land with almost no economic value. just religious value. if we would have just minded our own damn buisness this could all have been avoided. im glad that this happen, not that the people died or glad for the people who are suffering because of this, but glad that this Has shown what the extent is of a person who is fighting because he wants his couple square miles of "holy" land. fuck it
hey DEA, everything i said was false

these attacks were NOTHING to do with the isreali/palastinian conflict. whether the peace process in the middle east is going well (they are close to peace), or not, bin laden and the groups associated with him have continued this terrorism against america.
i think it's easy to immediately assume that the war in the middle east is to blame for terrorism in the west, as people did with the oklahoma bombing. the truth is though, that this, and other terrorist attacks have little or nothing to do with it.
in my view, i think that it should be clear who has organised and carried out the attacks today: followers of osama bin laden (past history of targeting the world trade centre; use of hijacked aeroplanes; publicising of his plans of a large scale attack on america no more than two weeks ago). i think the US is justified in an all out war against the terrorist groups associated with him.
i offer my sincerest regret to anyone that has been effected (either themselves or loved ones) by this tragedy.

Listen I respect all of your opinions, but I didnt post this to discuss the political, strategic situation in the mideast. If you want to do that please go to that forum. This post was made out of respect for the people that didnt make it through this day, for those that did survive and the people here who would like to say something outta respect for these people who lost their lives senselessly and needlessly.

Mind our own buisness and it wouldn't have happened?!? ...not even going to get into it, but what kind of fucked up dumbass attitude is that?
They're lucky I'm not president. I'd have the whole g/d middle east besides Israel 'seized' or turned into a glass parking lot. Screw the towel headed sonofbitches.

Vote Great Cthulhu for President. Why vote for a lesser evil?
