On the ground, however, it is the detail of ordinary life destroyed that catches the eye. Tangled mounds of concrete and reinforcing rods climb up a gentle slope. The eye alights on a shoe here, the leg of a doll, bedding, pages from the Koran, pictures and shards of broken mirror.

I guess he wasn't out to the site where the World Trade Center once stood, just after 911.

What a profound statement you made.
I saw all day long the so called "massacre" on the news channels. Those buildings were bulldozed, not blown up with planes full of lives and jet fuel.

Since the building codes there are lax to say the least, knocking them down did not require violence.
Also, the people there were aware the Israeli's were coming, they didn't suddenly have two huge aircraft crash into them while they were just busy making a living for their families.

The disgusting media reports about this are just driving me to madness. This was a war, it was declared by Arafat, not the Israeli's, just as our war was declared by Muslim terrorists, not us!
The pictures of our demolished Twin Towers is forever burned inside my brain and my heart, and nothing the Israeli's did there will ever match that horror we must live with inside our minds forever more!

This is without even mentioning the horror the families of flight 93 endured yesterday!
Massacre indeed!
