I'm not sure enough to dispute it. It could be as you say - an urban legend. I distinctly remember seeing photos of Arab garb attired women and men in western garb pointing at Manhatten. I would concede that it was footage interspersed with photos of Palestinian reaction, Jordanian reaction etc. It is quite possible I'm wrong.
Stop and think about it for one second...do you truly believe that all those Tony Soprano New Jersey types wouldn't have butchered them wholesale?
Generally this phrase smacks me upside the head as if I'm a child. Having said that - One of the reasons I value FR is because of the first hand reporting of events on a local level. I no longer automatically believe what I am fed from the media, the govt. and more importantly I easily question what I am NOT shown. Proving a negative is difficult. Essentially, since that is what I am asking when I say, "I remember massive demonstrations in NJ by Muslim Americans." So, without proof it is rhetoric and I withdraw it.

"I distinctly remember seeing photos of Arab garb attired women and men in western garb pointing at Manhatten."
I would imagine that there were a whole lot of people staring and pointing at Manhattan from New Jersey that morning.
It's not about withdrawing anything, it's about not fanning the fires of hate. There's enough of that going on in the world right now.
Thanks for the response.
Talk to you soon.
