Does anyone know the significance of Sept. 11th (other than today)

Today's date is 911. (FReeper 'hope' caught that one).

We arm Israel don't we? Now we are in the same pickle as they are. The Palestinians are the only ones nutty enough to blow themselves up.

Unfortunately you're right. Yes, this is horrible. Yes, we need a massive response. But we're foolish to think we can sit back in our comfy chairs while Israel assassinates Palestinians with our weapons. It had to come back and bite us eventually. Only the scale of the destruction is surprising.

Close to a year later as I read some replies for the first time like yours below, I'm stunned at how perceptive you and others were in the first few minutes of the 9/11 mass murder.

Here is a reply that you posted at 8:18 am PDT that morning. You were months ahead of most people:

To: Walkin Man

I don't know who is responsible for this act, and be honest and admit that YOU DON'T EITHER!

I don't care who it is, I want revenge - just like you do. I suspect that it might be an Arab faction of some sort, but I don't know.....not at this time.....and, as I said before, neither do you.

I really don't think it was the Palistinians. I am thinking that it is probably Bin Laden - but, don't get confused....Bin Laden is no more Palistinian than you are a Mexican or Canadian.

My point was, check yourself until we know who did it. Then, you and I can salute the flag and take revenge, but until then......we are in a wait and see mode.

you sir seem to be reliving the same threads I am! LOL. Not that these threads have much to laugh about, but I've seen you on the end of quite a few of them...

Let us not forget *bump*

Are we even a little bit safer today ? My guess is no. Thank your Congressman/ Congresswoman for that. They should hang after the next attack.

And there will be more attacks I fear.

When the terrible mass murder of our innocents happened on 9/11/01, we were on vacation in a semi isolated area of midcoastal Oregon.

We cancelled our vacation and didn't get back home until the evening of 9/12/01. I was starved for news and so was my wife.

When we got back and unloaded the SUV, she told me to go log on FR to see what was happening as she phoned relatives and friends to let them know that we were home safe.

I went to the breaking news area to see what was the latest news.

Whenever, I went to these original posts, I could not go through the original replies at that time emotionally. I still have a hard time. Now I am taking the time to do this. Again, I'm amazed at the brillance and compassion of so many Freepers.

There is probably a good book in these replies with a good researcher.

As you noted on another reply on another of these threads, we will never forget. One way to insure not forgetting is to go through these threads and their replies.

I am posting a reply to you in spite of the fact the Sidebar Monitor has told me not to "bump" 9/11 threads. It just so happens I am doing a little research on one particular aspect of the rescue efforts (I hope to post results but I don't think I'll be done by Wednesday). Amongst other things, I have read over 200 FR threads from that day (and I've more to go...)

In any event, check out this website I found:

Victim Profile Page

It's really awesome to read a little snippet about all their lives...I'm only up to the letter B, check out this guy:
Ret. Master Sgt. Max Beilke, 69
>>>Sgt. Beilke was officially the last American combat soldier to leave Vietnam in 1973. He was a civilian employee at the Pentagon who worked on veterans issues. Beilke, who was drafted in the Korean War, was the kid who'd always had a fishing pole in his hand, joined the U.S. Army and saw the world, said his sister, Lucille Johnson. "We could see him leaving (Vietnam) on television," Johnson said of her brother's return. "We all just beamed because we knew he'd soon be home safely."<<<

FRegards
