Where It's 9-11 All the Time...

various links | 09-11-02 | The Heavy Equipment Guy

[backhoe]

This is a small collection of links, organized into four consecutive categories:

1- A look back from now.
2- The 9-11 attack "as it went down, live..."
3- The aftermath.
4- Remembrance.

As with all such posts, there are links within links within links, and to fully remember and inform yourself, you need to follow them all- but be warned!
Some will take you to gruesome pictures and disturbing stories, so tread carefully.

I honestly believe that most Americans need to view these things, and never forget, or forgive, what was visited on defenseless and innocent people on that black day.

Use your own judgement, but look if you can.

The Eve of Destruction - 9/10/2002
Free Dominion ^ | September 11, 2002 | Entropy Squared
"World War III started on September 11, 2001 as surely as World War II started with the bombing of Pearl Harbor. What you are seeing in these pictures is a sneak attack by enemies who want to destroy the freedom and liberty we enjoy, as surely as the Japanese wanted to destroy us and as surely as the Nazis wanted to destroy us."

A Stunned City's Collected Grief [Hundreds of Unpublished 9/11 Photos]

The site is set up for browsing. I looked at number 1484, a gripping photo of jumpers ...

"When the whining, sappy, head-in-the-sand idiots at work say we shouldn't go to war, we should put all this behind us (and believe me, they have been saying these things) I've pointed to that shot and asked if they would feel any different if that was their mother, father or child."

Thanks for stopping by...

thank you backhoe, for putting this together.

[backhoe]

Appreciate the kind words, and the flags to others. I've avoided looking at the TV today because I figure it will be their usual "mile-wide, quarter-inch deep" coverage.

[ForGod'sSake]

Another awesome compilation backhoe. Your efforts are truly appreciated by this Freeper. BTW, I haven't had a chance to catch much of the teevee coverage what with domestic chores and all, but what I've seen has been passable. Which is about as good as it gets for most of our Ministry of Information ; )

God bless you and keep you.

Thanky fer the ping Mud.
