WASHINGTON (Reuters) – President Barack Obama sought to rally Americans behind the war in Afghanistan on the eighth anniversary of the September 11 attacks on the United States as opinion polls show faltering public support for the conflict.
"Let us renew our resolve against those who perpetrated this barbaric act and plot against us still," Obama said on Friday at a somber ceremony attended by about 500 people under rain-filled skies at the Pentagon.
"In pursuit of al Qaeda and its extremist allies we will never falter," he said, before laying a wreath at a memorial for those killed at the Pentagon on September 11, 2001.
On that day, American Airlines Flight 77 from Washington's Dulles International Airport smashed into the walls of the U.S. military headquarters, killing 125 people, along with the plane's 59 passengers and crew and the five hijackers.
Al Qaeda hijackers took control of four passenger planes on September 11, crashing two into the World Trade Center in New York and a third into the Pentagon. A fourth, United Airlines Flight 93, crashed into a field in Pennsylvania after the passengers and crew tried to retake control of the plane.
In all, about 3,000 people were killed.
In New York, relatives of those who died in the World Trade Center attack took turns reading the names of the victims, adding personal remarks of remembrance for their loved ones, while flutists and violinists played solemn music.
The reading of the names took place in a small park across the street from the World Trade Center site, which is now a huge construction area where four skyscrapers and a national museum and memorial plaza are planned.

Actually I thought the same thing!
This couple should get out of the White House and keep touring until 2013! They could actually do some good for the country!
(Obama doesn’t know much about economics, foreign affairs, or domestic policy so that would keep him from signing any bills!)

“She was also looking ok on the night of the deathcare speech.”
Nah, she was wearing the drapes she stole from the West Wing that night. She does look ok today in black, from the front, with her head down.
Nazi Pelosi says “no more troops”. how’s he gonna pull that one off?? can anyone say vietnam??

Let’s send ACORN to Afghanistan. They can “community organize” them to death.
Allies like Saddam Hussein? You've done everything humanly possible to make sure we falter, you lying piece of excrement.

Renew the fight for what? You, Obozo, took Victory off the table. Are we to renew the fight for a stalemate? A memorandum of understanding? What?
I don’t know her heart either. That’s God’s realm.
I know this: she is part and parcel of a regime that is threatening the future of our children and grandchildren.
bin Laden to Obummer: “You follow the script very well, my brother. Now get back to undermining the great satan.”
I’ll support Obama on Afghanistan if nothing else.
He is pursuing an Iraq-like surge at great expense to himself in terms of political support from his own wingnuts.
BIG FAT LIAR, he doesn’t mean it. He LIES.
Joe...Joe Wilson...that you?
And then he added, "But we will apologize to them for inciting their violence."
Don’t listen to his pretty words, lood at what he does. It’s always the complete opposite of what he says.
Brian Killmead was good on FOX this morning, when he mentioned that Miss Nancy doesn’t think we need more troops, he said “So Nancy is a general now!!?!?!?!”
It was SO FUNNY!
