    Ok, in my previous post, I admit there were a few things off wack but hey, thats jus how chaotic this scenario is.

    Now lets try to get some facts straight, What is going on? From start to what is the end for the time being.

    Can anyone canswer this ponderous question? because i can't.

    So, lets ask ourselves this..... how many of us really can't feel and sorrow for the people who died?

    There are people who were buried, people who were engulfed in flames while being shattered by tons of metal shards and glass pieces. who cannot feel any bit of sorrow for these individuals? I can. I, just as many others, has no right to say....ehh, so what.......... because it could have happened to me considering i live so close by New York in New Jersey. No one else has that right either. It could have happened to any one anywhere.

    To those who are subscribed to TIME magazine, you all should have gotten a special edition issue of the incident.(truly something of great importance since there aren't any advertisements in the issue) In there are actual photos of certian sites before and after the crash and collapsing. I saw a photo of THREE people jumping, actually jumping, out of the buildings windows.

    now lets ask ourselves this..... who thinks thats scary, funny, or heart-shattering? if your choices are the first two then you truly have a sick mind. Remember, it could have happened to your family and you in your town. Now i don't know what is going on with Bush and why he is taking so long to make a finaly decision, but for the people who had no last words, no last chances, and no chance for survival are victims that may continue to add on to the list of dead men and women if Bush is going to allow enough time for the terrorist to plan another Strike........

    DO NOT MAKE ANY JOKES ABOUT THIS INCIDENT. RESPECT WHAT HAS HAPPENED AND HOPE FOR A CHANCE FOR THIS NIGHTMARE TO END. I Don'T CARE WHAT YOU THINK, DO NOT SAY DUMB THINGS THAT ARE MERELY FOR PLAY. ex. "I wish i were old enough to kick some afghan ass"

    I and a whole bunch of other most appreciate it if you took some time to read my post. I myself say some dumb things but for such deaths and sacrafices, there is no room for anf foolishness.

    Light 40 candels or something in your homes and hang the American Flag to show you do care and to prove that you wish you could do something about it.

    imaqine what it would look like if it were you in that building or a relative. Would you want that to happen??

    Why do I have a sick mind if I find that scary? It's terrifying to imagine myself in that situation, and I feel sad for the people it happened to.
    Some things I've seen are the saddest of my life...people may not know how to express themselves, and their only way is through anger. I am no longer one of those people, but I understand those who are.

    Asorie: The Dome of the Rock sits on what major Jewish religious site? Temple Mount. In what major Jeudeo-Christian religious city? Jerusalem.

    I don't think it's too terribly horrid to evict Muslims from a site that belongs to a religion several thousand years older than their own. But that's just me. As for burning down my church; Orthodoxy has survived since 33 AD. You could burn down every Orthodox church in America with all the congregants in them and, while mourning the loss of the members of the Body, the Church would go on. That's the VAST difference between Christianity and Islam. You could destroy the Vatican and Roman Catholics would go on. Fundamentalist Muslims are almost codependent on Mecca, the Dome of the Rock, and their other sites as proof of Allah's/Mohammed's glory and favor and power. Now; if the infidel (non-Muslim) takes over those sites, the infidel has a BIG bargining chip. The infidel can name his price or destroy the site. Hey; the Talibied had NO issue with destroying statues that were several thousand years old.

    That's just me, though. I'm mean. I've no qualms admitting that.

    As for what to do about the Talibied...here's how we get in and here's how we shut down that little organization.

    1. Disguise our soldiers as elderly women and hide weapons beneath their veils, robes, dresses, and such.

    2. Get our soldiers out in the market in Kabul.

    3. Have bomb threats called in to one or two of the Big Important Government (re: Talibied) buildings in the city.

    4. It's pretty much like shooting fish in a barrel.

    5. Repeat.

    Getting bin Lauden will be a little harder. I'll leave that to the Deltas. But after we get him; I say we tie him to the rear bumper of a car and drive it ALL OVER the US so people can show how much they think of him. Then; we put him on international television; humiliate and desecrate his body; THEN we kill him...slowly. Over the course of about two or three weeks. I've already got several ideas on this one.

    Again; I'm mean. I'm mean and I have an IQ of around 170 something. I'm mean and creative. Usually I'm a peaceful "let's all just get along and agree to disagree" kind of person. Not in this though. I've no qualms admitting I want to see those responsible (re: Talibied, bin Lauden, and his organization) broken in mind, body, and spirit.

    Again; I'm mean.

    I haven't read this entire thread yet..... (It's quite long and I am only able to get online and actually do something productive in my Computer Science class.) But yesterday at my friends house his dad was reading stuff online and said that they had found evidence of another wave of violence to take place on September 22nd. Has anyone else heard anything of this????

    Hmm.... I didn't really get all the information about it. I just heard that and it really stuck in my head. We'll give it awhile and see if anyone has heard it and can give me (us) all the information on the second attack.

    The example of burning down churches that I gave was meant to show you how wrong it is to desecrate the religious sites and artifacts of a religion because it's not your own, or, even more ignorantly, because a person who is of that religion did something wrong. You had better stop spreading the blame from the few who actually committed the crime to all who hold similar religious beliefs. I mean it. This is your warning.

    I don't mean to sound rude (I am an American in case you wondered) But alot of people in america are stupid they feel the by destroying Islam churches of temples or whatever there called they can have revenge or justice but all their doing is hurting the innocent and being aas evil as the enemy. ANYWAY... Osama Bin Laden is Toast all of our allies and the U.S. will bomb the shisnit out of him even if we don't succead the people of his country wll kick him out or kill him (like in sirbea) AND DON'T TELL ME I KNOW MY GRAMMAR IS HORRIBLE!!!!!

    I agree with Phoneix. Bin Laden, when caught, should be tortured and then killed. Also any accomplices invovled but more him. The people that did this crime should pay. Just killing them is too easy. Make them suffer.

    I agree Bin Laden Should pay for his crimes with more than his life. If it were me I'd hang him slowly in front of the White house.

    Asorie: duly noted.

    I am sorry for ever saying anything on this rather emotionally charged issue. You may delete whatever posts of mine you want.

    That's okay And I don't want to delete your posts, and I'd like you to keep posting-just keep that in mind. It was a warning, nothing more.

    Had anyone else heard anything about the possible connections this event had with Iraq? I heard rumors, but not much else.

    I've also just heard rumors but not anything more than that.

    Call me a pacifist(which I am), but I don't believe anyone EVER deserves torture. Although, there's one thing I would like:

    Hundreds of thousands of Muslims should trek to wherever bin Laden would be being held, and many Muslim priests(Sorry if they're not called that, I know not of the religion) explain to him that what he has done is hideously wrong, and that his 'jihad' was a disgrace to the Islamic religion.

    Also, I'm happy to say that I donated $10(I had about $18 total) to the Red Cross today. Not that I'm bragging or anything.

    Well, it looks like the military action that about 80% of Polled Americans are in favor of (Don't throw things at me, I read it in the newspaper) is going to happen, and soon at that.
    There's 3 groupings of warships in the gulf (not including the ships that Britain has volunteered to the cause), and just today the US sent about 100 attack planes - F15s and F16s and Bsomething bombers - do an "undisclosed location" (read: Saudi Arabia). It's coming, whether you like it or not.
    Operation Infinite Justice has begun. The American Behemoth stirs. Woe betide the countries that stand in it's way!
    On a more practical note, keep in mind that a lot of this building up of forces stems from an unspoken demand by the American public to see some of this promised (by Bush) retaliation take shape. He feels that if he continues to do nothing, people will start to say "he's all talk and no action" and he'll lose a lot of the momentum that he has right now.
    No profanity in sigs please.
    Sigh. What profanity? I quoted Sephex's post from Eyes on Each Other from about a year ago, and any "profanity" in his post was either **** or ***** anyway. Whatever. And you wonder why forum traffic is way down.
