God bless those people,,, but screw this damned Brit writer.
He says;
“But there are other, more complicated, reasons. In the aftermath of this attack on Americas sovereign territory a period of intense patriotism some considered that to choose to die rather than be killed showed a lack of courage.
And in this country of intense religious fervour, many believe that to be a jumper was to choose suicide rather than accept the fate of God and suicide in whatever circumstances is considered shameful or, indeed, a sin that will send you to Hell.”
I have NEVER heard anyone,,,EVER call them unpatriotic, or shameful, sinful for jumping, or Hellbound.
This article is a stinking pile of crap.
I defy ANYONE to stand fast in the presence of a 1000 degree fire. Find me a single person who can stand directly on a 500 degree cast iron skillet,,,WTC was **twice** that. In WWI pilots routinely jumped from burning planes before parachutes were carried.
It wasn’t some Zen-like empowerment decision to choose death in the way they wanted.
It wasn’t *pretty intense heat* or *a lot of smoke*.
It was a blast furnace,, floors reaching 500, 600, 700 degrees. It was nearly literally burning alive. It was NO air,, none. It was mass murder by the Islamic religion that Britons are so in love with.
How dare this British ba$tard imply that it was any form of a choice? And i defy him to provide an example of anyone in America publically calling them “unpatriotic”.
I call BS on his claims.
Don't flame me... I do not agree with her AT ALL. In fact, I had never even considered that point of view until I watched the documentary last weekend.
