Remember that day.

Remember our fellow Americans who suffered.

Remember our resolve as a nation.

Remember who did this to us.

Remember to cherish your freedom and those who fought to keep us free.

I think we can safely say that those of us on this forum will never forget. I wish the rest of the country felt the same

 

I was watching a special on TV the other night about 9-11, my 14 year old asked me why I was watching, then looked at me, and asked me why I was crying....

 

We MUST never forget. With all of my being, I swear that the peacenicks feel nothing when they look upon these images. I was working in an office, and didnt see the towers fall live, and truly couldnt belive it. I remember, and will remember till the day I die, how I felt when I heard on the radio, the pentagon had been hit. I knew we were at war.

 

I live about 8 miles from Chattanooga TN airport, and one flight path is over my house. 4 days of no planes was eerie as all get out

The perfect day for me to return to the Forum. A united USA would be thoughtful today, and would reflect on things in the light of this atrocity. But we are not united. It reminds me of that time-worn 'United We Stand' bumper sticker I'd put on my car.

[Wouldn't you know it? As God would will it, I get my computer straightened out on this day.]

"With all of my being, I swear that the peacenicks feel nothing when they look upon these images."

They block it out. That's the only way to remain a leftist, selective outrage.

The best way to remember what we are doing to respond to 9/11 is to read the dispatches of a free-lance embed, currently in Mosul - Michael Yon. He needs your support to tell the whole story.

Thank you for the thread.
My heart will always be heavy with angry tears.

9/11 owns a piece of our hearts. It is up to us to see that our children understand before it gets sanitized and is put, in effect, on a dusty bookshelf of history.

That reminds of a photo I took when the Cubs had played their first game after the 9-11 attacks disrupted baseball. All the buildings surrounding Wrigley Field were draped with huge flags, like this one at Murphy's Bleachers.

During the early search/recovery of 9/11 at Ground Zero, I had read that the search dogs desperately needed boots for their feet because they were getting burned and/or cut up in the rubble. But the dogs did their jobs regardless.

Thank you so much for the moving tribute to the K-9 service dogs-- who, when needed to, will work until they drop-- with a job well done as their only reward. They are truly our best friends!

According to the 9/11 Commission Report Hani Hanjour was at the controls of the 757 that crashed into the Pentagon.

According to the FBI this is Hani Hanjour on 9-05-01

According to the 9/11 Commission, this is Hani Hanjour on 9-11-01. This is not Hani Hanjour.

Never forget

Haaretz:Meek and stammering

Drawn into the tragedy, Israel declares a day of mourning and enlists blood donors. But it also has its own agenda: A team from the Spokesman's Office of the Israel Defense Forces was sent to film the scenes of joy and candy being handed out in East Jerusalem "for public relations purposes." The politicians compete with each other to present the tragedy as proof of their own long-standing political attitudes toward the Palestinians and use their best rhetorical skills to call for an international coalition to save Western civilization.

Oh, that is awful. So sorry for the loss of your friend. They say time heals all wounds, but I have always believed that we just learn to deal with the pain. It never gets easy.

Thanks for this great thread!

[brothers4thID]

I will never forget. I will never forget that men I had never met before gave their own lives over a field in Pennsylvania in order to save my life that day. I am alive because Americans fought back that day and showed the world what heroism truly is.

Thank you for posting this picture!

The September 11 Digital Archive

I'm sorry, but this is a lame, pissant apologetic to America haters. Any good it serves is entirely by accident. Read their statement on the "accuracy" of the "tell your story" section. See their videos on the Muslim and Arab perspective. Fair enough -- American citizens who love this country and are Muslim have a side too, but should it dominate a site the proclaims itself as "THE September 11 Digital Archive," and boasts an association with the Smithsonian and the Library of Congress?

I'm glad you brought this up, because I wanted to mention this spineless craphole of a site to FReepers.

[the invisib1e hand]

I went to the Memorial at WTC today. I listened to the names being read: "my beloved brother....my hero...we love you more each day; my little sister and hero....;...the best big brother sister could have...;...you are my hero, we miss you...watch over us...."

I wondered what they would tell us, if they could. I imagined, and I'd lay odds on it if I somehow could, that these heroes and victims would want the best days of this City and this Country to be ahead of us; they would have died in vain if it weren't so. I believe it with all my heart. I wish I could convince everyone to pull together and make it so.
