Horrifying Terrorist Attacks on the U.S.

This is not game news, but is more important. I am putting this up here because many people are trying to figure out what is going on and this way we can share what we know. Here's what I know so far: - At about 8:45 a plane crashed into one of the World Trade Center towers. 14 minutes later, andther plane crashed into the second tower. - Another plane crashed into the Pentagon soon after that. - A bomb went off at the State Department. - Both World Trade Center Towers have now completely collapsed, presumably killing everyone who was unable to evacuate in time, and also the firemen and police who were at the towers trying to help people evacuate. - Another plane has gone down somewhere in Western Pennsylvania. Possibly just a coincidence or possibly an attempt to hyjack it to another target. Words cannot express the horror.

One again the U.S. is going to be forced into a war on the other side of the world. Agreed, we have been supporting one side of the already heated battle in the Middle East, however now we must act. The U.S. will not stand for this and someone must pay. THIS, my fellow EQ fans, IS ONLY THE BEGINNING. There will be horrible, unimaginable tragities (greater than the World Trade Centers collapsing) within the next 10 years. The likelihood of another terrorist attack against the United States, using nuclear, biological or chemical weapons in the next 10 years, is 100 per cent. Who, what, when, where, or how is still to be determined, but it WILL happen.

WW3 IS upon us. And this time, it will be fought on U.S. soil!

You're on the right track, WW III wouldn't suprise me after this, but it will not be fought on U.S. soil. We won't let it. It's just a matter of time before we know who did this, and when we do, we'll know they're coming. It wouldn't sadden me to deport all sympathizers for the terrorists, and in WW II, we didn't have any domestic battles except for Pearl Harbor which wasn't even really a battle. Say we learned it was a Palestinian attack, they have no chance against us. This was a suprise attack, and that's all they're gonna get on us. The sleeping giant has been awakened again, and I hope we out-do Hiroshima and Nagasaki when we end the inevitable war.

Hmmm I don't like deaths, but rather than saying stupidities, why don't you see now that it's pretty different fighting in another country, and "fighting" (if you consider terrorism fighting) in your country. What's the difference between terrorism and Israelian tanks shooting down Palestinian buildings?

What a stupid post. What has happened in the middle east is horrible and both sides have much to answer for. But what happened today is different. The difference is in scope. I doubt seriously that in the last 20 years the number of Palestinians killed will total the death toll of today. Quite possibly 30,000 people or more were killed today.

Today War was declared on the USA. Our response should be war declared on terrorism. Any governments supporting terrorists and all mid-east terrorist organizations should be held accountable, responsible or not.

I would use small yield tactical nuclear weapons on all known terrorist camps. Yes, i did say nuclear.The military and strategic infrastucture of governments supporting terrorists should be destroyed with conventional weapons, all cries of protests both foreign and domestic should be ignored. Now is the time for strong forceful action or the USA will be considered a paper tiger and weak ghost of its former self. A blow of this nature to the heart of the USA needs to responded to with great force.

Strength is respected, make nice, politically correct ********* makes you feel good but today we have a declaration of war on us and the rules change in war.

If you think i am a warmonger, you are wrong, i love peace but when some one attacks your country in such a manner all the rules have changed.

Right on

I'm not a warmonger either, but I'm very patriotic, I'm usually very docile by nature.

If I punch you for punching a friend, you deserve it.
Afterwords, if you yell at me, I'll shrug it off.
If you come up to me and poke me, I'll give you a nasty look.
Smack me in the face, I'll probably curse at you.
But you come up behind me and hit me in the back with a baseball bat, I'm gonna find out who you are, find you, and proceed to beat the living sh*t out of you.
It's just that simple.

You say that like the palistinians (SP) are innocent, they shoot isralies just as much as isralies shoot them. The INNOCENT americans lost today did nothing to anyone who might have done this. THAT is the difference.
