Here's one story..

There's a link on my profile page that will get you the US Embassy in Ankara, Turkey. There was some language addressing your question there, it may still be. I am not aware of any cheering in Turkey.

I have to say that, I watched the whole thing unfold on TV, and kept watching even to see the "cheering crowds" in Palestine, etc. I saw a couple of grown-ups hand out candy to little kids and start them dancing. Then the grown-ups left when they saw the camera. I'm not so sure that the general public anywhere in the world took pleasure from the 9/11 attack. I'm pretty sure the kids I told you of were dancing because they got candy... We're being puppets in the hands of a few evildoers..

Until I read these words, I wasn't sure if you were sincere. Now I can see that you are not.

Widespread jubilation was well documented in Palestine after the WTC Towers were knocked down. Some news footage was even destroyed by the Palestinian Authority. The candy incident was only one of many that were recorded by independent journalists. The whole territory celebrated until Arafat put the kabosh on it the following day. If you don't have enough integrity to admit this well known and well documented fact, your word cannot be trusted, nor your opinion taken into account, on other matters.
