You're probably right.

Re-living those last moments brings back every emotion to me, from the grief and pride for the passengers to the absolute and utter hate for those that did us harm and would do so anytime if they could. Allah is great, my a$$ - makes me sick!
30 minutes of what must have been AWFUL for those on Flight 93.....
Islam is the greatest evil of our time. A pseudo religion that is actually a fascistic ideology. Hitler is alive and well and living in the Muslim Nation.
I just made the rational observation that I worry - and rightly so, given Hollywood's track record with so many historical movies - that this movie may be more insulting to the memory of the people who died on 9-11, than honor them in the manner befitting their actions and fate.
No reason to be snotty about it.
I don't think there's anything more evil than a religion that kills innocents in God's name.
Paul Greengrass, who directed "United 93," earlier directed "Bloody Sunday," about the 1972 massacre of Irish by British troops. It was absolutely riveting and seemed to be historically accurate. It was not juiced up with phony melodrama. I expect "93" to be the real deal.
What pisses me off is that I went to findlaw.com and they have a poll.Should this bag of $h!t get the death penalty? The poll stands at yes 22% and no 59%.What is wrong with people.
We are all going to have to finish this business with TROP maniacs, or we will be the ones finished. They need "a rain of ruin>.
It has nothing to do with whether or not we are tough enough. The Bush Administration and the criminal liberal news media don't want a backlash against the "religion of peace." Essentially it undercuts our will to win the WOT.
I have always taken some comfort in knowing that the heroes who stormed the cockpit that day went down FIGHTING! I can only imagine the adrenaline they felt.
I think, being in that situation, knowing I was DOING WHAT I COULD to fight instead of passively going to my slaughter, would help me to deal with the reality of the situation. I pray that God gave them peace and a SUPERNATURAL strength to DEAL with the terrorists and to inflict some pain on them before the plane crashed.
Personally, I would like to hear the entire, unedited tape.
I want to STAY ANGRY over this and NEVER FORGET 9-11.
Unfortunately, not nearly enough people remember how we were united together, realizing that these are MUCH DIFFERENT times we are living in...
Remeber when we all felt this way?
Beast, You Don’t Know My People
by Leonard Pitts Jr.
They pay me to tease shades of meaning from social and cultural issues, to provide words that help make sense of that which troubles the American soul. But in this moment of airless shock when hot tears sting disbelieving eyes, the only thing I can find to say, the only words that seem to fit, must be addressed to the unknown author of this suffering.
You monster. You beast. You unspeakable bastard.
What lesson did you hope to teach us by your coward’s attack on our World Trade Center, our Pentagon, us? What was it you hoped we would learn? Whatever it was, please know that you failed.
Did you want us to respect your cause? You just damned your cause.
Did you want to make us fear? You just steeled our resolve.
Did you want to tear us apart? You just brought us together.
Let me tell you about my people. We are a vast and quarrelsome family, a family rent by racial, cultural, political and class division, but a family nonetheless. We’re frivolous, yes, capable of expending tremendous energy on pop cultural minutiae – a singer’s revealing dress, a ball team, a cartoon mouse.
We’re wealthy, spoiled by the ready availability of trinkets and material goods, and maybe because of that, we walk through life with a certain sense of blithe entitlement. We are fundamentally decent, though, peace-loving and compassionate. We struggle to know the right thing and to do it. And we are, the overwhelming majority of us, people of faith, believers in a just and loving God.
Some people – you? – think any or all of this makes us weak. You’re mistaken. Indeed, we are strong in ways that cannot be measured by arsenals.
Yes, we’re in pain now. We are in mourning and we are in shock. Your attacks are likely to go down as the worst acts of terrorism in the history of the United States and indeed, the history of the world. You’ve bloodied us as we have never been bloodied before.
But there’s a gulf of difference between making us bloody and making us fall. This is the lesson Japan learned to its bitter sorrow. When roused we are righteous in our outrage, terrible in our force.
I tell you this without fear of contradiction. I know my people, as you, I think, do not. What I know reassures me. It also causes me to tremble with dread of the future.
In days to come, there will be recrimination and accusation, fingers pointing to determine whose failure allowed this to happen. There will be heightened security, misguided talk of revoking basic freedoms. We’ll go forward sobered, chastened, sad. But determined, too.
Unimaginably determined.
On this day, the family’s bickering is put on hold. As Americans we will weep, as Americans we will mourn, and as Americans, we will rise in defense of all that we cherish.
Still, I keep wondering what it was you hoped to teach us. Maybe you just wanted us to know the depths of your hatred.
If that’s the case, consider the message received. And take this message in exchange:
You don’t know my people. You don’t know what you just started. But you’re about to learn.
I hate to say this, but I won't go by what the families approved. They keep gushing over that overtly Moslem "memorial" in PA. To me, I think they're the kinds who instead of anger which would be justified, go purely to anguish, and want to "stop the anger" and wave the olive branch. How anyone can approve of that atrocious travesty in PA is beyond me, but they've done it. So I won't take their word on anything.
Not a good thing to listen to when starting your day. May they rest in peace.
I want to STAY ANGRY over this and NEVER FORGET 9-11.
then definitely take a look at my post after yours...
Which is INSULTING to us Americans. Damn liberals think we're all so EVIL in the US, that we'll be lynching people right and left (and they're so successful at propogating this BS about how brutal and cruel Americans are, that alot of Republicans are weak-kneed about it too and believing it)!
How dare they assume we're all so cruel? We aren't nearly the monsters that the Moslems are. Didn't happen after the REAL montrous atrocity of Sept 11; why would such brutality break out after a movie?
!#$%#!#$$#%@$!@# communist America-hating liberals
AMEN!
These are the 1 set of people who were REAL heroes in the whole mess, and they deserve PROPER memorialization.
I remember that Pitts piece! Thanks.
