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.

All you fools who don't like the way America does what is does can go somewhere else. Try living in Iraq for a few years then see how sad you think we are. We have what we have because we work for it. And America IS the greatist counrty in the world, why else would anyone bother bombing us or Terrorizing us? Do you see em bombing Canada Or Maexico? ( not that they aren't good countries) No, you don't. Killing Terrorists is a good thing, eventually there will be no more of them between the bullets of Americans and thier own self destruction.



War is bad, but if there is war ( and there will always be war ) I Will WIN!

Hmm... I hate statements like that... What if that was said during slavery? What if that was said during the civil-rights movement? Change is usually good...

I know this had nothing to do with the subject, but I just hate that statement above...

--And America IS the greatist counrty in the world, why else would anyone bother bombing us or Terrorizing us?--

Well, America might be the greatest (a rather subjective comment, but...), yet its not perfect... It might be the best, but it could be better.

Plus, many, many other countries have a lot more terrorism than us... By your statement, they'd be the best country, too... France doesn't even have lockers in their train and bus stations, for fear of Algerian bombings... Israel constantly has terrorism... Same with Ireland... All that means is they have enemies who will stoop to low levels such as bombing civilians.. not that they are better than others...

Call me a pessimist.. but there will always be terrorists... In fact, the more that die, in my opinion, the more there will be... There will be more "fallen heros" for the terrorists to follow... *shrug*

My english professor said it best today... America has entered a new age... "Terrorism is now a fact of life in America. Get used to it. Prepare for change."

Oh, and as a very side note, I applaude all those who gave blood yesterday... I waited for 3 hours to give blood... And I couldn't have been prouder of my fellow countrymen.. That, in my opinion, is what makes this country great. Even though we, in the past, had bickering and petty arguments over stupid crap... In dire times of crisis, we come together... we help our countrymen without thought... I've never before had to wait more than 10 minutes to give blood... And yesterday, it was a 3 hour wait... That is great.
