One of the biggest parties I have ever seen. Dancing, handing out candies...
It was a big day for Palestine.

I was there, I saw it with my own eyes.
Nice conspiracy website though.

You have to realize that most foreign countries do not like the U.S.....and with good reason. This crap country bullies, bombs, and invades anyone that dares to cross us.
9/11 was an event that 3000 people perished in. A big number for the U.S., but not so big for most of the Mideastern countries that are bombed and attacked every day by US.
Compared to the amount of innocent men, women, and children the U.S. military kill each year, 3000 lives is a drop in the bucket.
0/10
Cliched, false, and obviously trolling post...and by the way...considering every other country but this one would be foreign with respect to the US, "foreign countries" is redundant.
Yawn.
i was 18, in France, came back from school, turned on TV and saw the news on an ordinary channel where usually there isnt news at this time of the day. I was shocked and so were the journalists on tv. I think at the time people were still speculating on who could be behind the attacks.
I felt sad for the people of New York.
I was wondering when it would stop because it seems there were so many attacks, on the towers, on the pentagon, the plane that crashed in pennsylvania.
I remember the time when the second plane hit the towers and then when the towers came down that were broadcasted live on tv.
In France we had a wave of attacks in the end if the 90s with bombs put in trashcans or in the Subway put by islamist extremists from Algeria but nothing of that scale (

étro_and_RER_bombings ). Journalists were already saying that these attacks would change the World but I wasn't really grasping to what extent at the time. Now 15 years later it is easy to see that they were right.
One last thanks. I shared a lot of these with my classes today.
As a "thanks", I am sharing the video that I think best conveys the sense of shock on that day:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVhhu5OjMf8I was in Italy at a medical conference and most of the attendees thought it was normal that hostilities reached the United States after decades of US meddling in Middle Eastern affairs.
This thread meant a lot to me, so I hope it is ok if I bump it.
