Oh no, the omnipotent bankers that own the American people got crashed into...oh the humanity...(that is who the largest businesses in the twin towers were...)

Anyway, we have bred the hatred of us by our constant aggression and meddling in foreign affairs. Ironically our meddling and aggression overseas was funded by those companies housed in the twin towers...Now everyone can commence hating me.

Were the Amelkites and Jebusites that "fought" stragglers retaliating for "constant aggression" by Hebrews?

OMG @ this thread.

Why should I not forget how I felt on 911 exactly?

Get real people, acts of terrorism are bad but far more people die in other circumstances. How many people have died in car crashes, homicides, wars, natural disasters, medical malpractice cases, illness, suicides since 2001?

I'm definitely not gonna get stuck in something that happened 15 years ago. Sure the scenes are dramatic but if I play a video of someone getting shot or a family getting burned alive in a car crash it would be also very dramatic. 911 was bad enough when it happened. If you go around with fear the only people who win are the terrorists. Their goal is to create fear.

Stop the paranoia already

Should we just ignore the fact that people living in the 9th Century are at war with us?

I lived 50 miles away in NJ.. the purple smoke was seen for days and days as it streamed over the ocean moving south... I thought of the people burned alive. I mourned. Two weeks later I went to ground zero. It looked like a war zone. The stench was bad. It had a chemical smell . I saw the white dust covering the buildings. I walked over the Brooklyn bridge and remember seeing what seems unreal to the senses.. it was horrible. I will never forget.

Either our government is lying to us or we are really crappy at dusting these people out. The hardest part I have with all of this President Bush was able to walk away.......while the enemy went from 3rd world fighters to having better guns and military equipment than our own US soldiers.

How are they calling this "unseen"? It's been included in a documentary for many years. I'll see if I can find it.

Their video starts the entire documentary. This documentary goes on to reveal more of their video. This documentary was put out in 2008. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1312203/

Lets see if you can figure it out now. Two simple sentences I hope even you can understand.

But never mind that our government murders thousands of innocents over there who are at funerals, at weddings, in hospitals and in schools. Right? Completely ignore that FACT.
We are allowed to use force and coercion to do anything we want and no one should retaliate because we're America!
You act like the U.S. was over in the Middle East killing people for 60 years, so naturally they retaliated. That just isn't true. We interfered with an election in Iran, and preferred certain leaders over others, but as far as I know we weren't over there killing people. We helped the Saudis become rich with oil. We supplied weapons to Iraq in their war against Iran. We have meddled, but no more than Russia and they never get the blame for this type of realpolitik.

Osama bin Laden wasn't mad at us for killing people. He was mad at us because his country preferred having the American army and coalition forces to stop Iraq in 1991, instead of him and his mujahideen forces that we trained to fight Russia in the '80s. I don't see how that's justification for him to them start bombing navy ships and embassies, and ultimately targets in the U.S.

I ran for my life that day. I saw what happens to a person when they hit the from 80 stories high. And yet the liberal Democrats and their trolls in the media have worked as hard as they can to make this all about Bush and vilify him while patting Obama on the back for killing Osama. We're such an effed up and partisan country now it's heartbreaking. My son wants to join the military, but I've done my damndest to talk him out of it. You can't trust a Democratic president to do the right thing with the military, you can't trust the DoD now that Obama's gutted it, and after Benghazi there's no way I'd trust the military with Hillary in charge.
