Another FReeper posted an old WaPo story from 9/18/2001 reporting that these celebrations DID OCCUR!!
The Power of Suggestion here appears to be the suggestion from your editors that you forget all about it.
The celebrations where thousands were photographed, occurred in Gaza and the West bank IIRC . Not NJ....but that’s just me..
I remember seeing a video of people celebrating on the Jersey side of the river.Turned out they were Israeli tourists,who said”Now you know what we have to deal with.”
I searched but couldn’t find the video anymore,maybe some folks here will remember it.
Ministry of Truth stuff. They just forgot to burn all the papers.
I remember hearing or reading about those celebrations at the time.
Well, the WaPo has changed hands since then, and I assume that the editors changed as well. BUT as Ann Coulter once quipped, “To a liberal, history began at breakfast this morning.”.....................
