America Remembers September 11, 2001~~~~~~Live Thread

All networks

[Dog]

Today marks the second anniversary of the day America came under attack. Events are planned at the Ground Zero, White House, Arliington and Shanksville.

[Dog]

I thought FR would need a Live Thread to keep up with all the events thru out the day......

[Peach]

Morning. Just got up and hoped you started a thread. Thank you.

[Timesink]

I wish we'd start calling it the World Trade Center again, instead of "Ground Zero."

Swedish PM dead from stab wounds/assassination attempt that happened yesterday.

IDF is 300 meters from Arafat's office.

In memory..

The Arabic calendar which predicted the 911 Atrocities in 9/01, months in advance.
How many were in the UN before 911, Kofi?
How may were in the State Dept before 911, Colin?

---

The Islamic terrorists planned this in advance. Nothing has happened to find out who had this on their walls before 911.

The Saudis financed/planned/encouraged the 911 atrocities. Nothing has happened -- except they financed more.

I know NBC will have the "perky" take on this subject but I for one don't care what Katie Colonic thinks about it.

[GRRRRR]

Today is my birthday.
It has become a morbid day for me, to celebrate my mother who passed away in Aug. 98, and the thought that this date which for so many years was just my day is now a date that History will never forget will make it more difficult.
I become weepy and my heart is heavy with the thoughts of what those people went through. A simple travel day for many. The young son traveling to LA for school, his plane crashing at the Pentagon where his father worked...others having to sit there and realize their deaths...while others hurled themselves into the air to avoid the fires, it all comes together in a blur that my mind still cannot accept for the bravery of them all. God Bless them all. God Bless America I love her.

Don't forget evil

[Peach]

The images will never be forgotten by those who love America. Those who hate America are all too willing to forget.

It is my little niece's birthday as well and she talks about OBL a lot. The effect on our young people is incalculable.

Celebrate your birthday as well as you can. It is for us that our soldiers fight, so we may live life well.

Katie?

Couric, representing NBC:
"We (at NBC) all hope and pray that Saddam escaped harm, and hopefully fled to Syria."

[ConservativeMan55]

Today will never be forgotten.

I pray that we nab a high level terrorist today just like last year.

[Diogenesis]

On 911, Islamic terrorists butchered Americans.

[Miss Marple]

Thank you for posting this thread. I will be watching as many events as I can today. I, too, will never forget.

[Peach]

Be sure to fly the flag today.

I know many fly it every day. We've had so much rain here for months that I had taken it down.

It's going back up today unless it pours rain.

[Miss Marple]

Could you please ping the live thread list when you get here? Thanks!

Words still can't express.

And NPR chooses to start the morning with a story about an Islamic immigrant who chose not to cooperate with the FBI, and how sympathetic we should be to his plight because his rights are being violated.
