Honoring 9/11, the fallen/ Ten Years Later. - Page 1

Only rememberances and  goodwill, please. Thanks.

I remember I was feeding my young child and watching Regis in the morning and saw the second plane hit. There is no decsribing that. I felt compelled to call my DH at his work, that very moment. 

Celebrating 911 and believing the coverup and lies is not honoring all the fallen heroes and sick and dying first responders.  We are supposed to celebrate this terrible attack on the twin towers and the pentagon and honor the govt perps that did it? 

We all ought to be furious at those who did this and at cheney for telling all air defense to stand down from "automatic 6 minute" F-16 interceptions that were previously required.  Don't believe me see Sec. of Transportation Norman Mineta's testimony.

There is more than enough good evidence to arrest cheney, rumsfield and the neocons, certain DOD contractors, and some USAF generals and numerous hiugh govt officials who will come forward and testify  (Syeve Pieczenik, MD;  Alan Sabrosky, Ph.D., Major General Albert Stubbelbine, former head of ALL special ops, and Morgan Reynolds).

Get angry at the right people, the true perps and give gratitude, honor and support to the victims families, and the surviving and sick first responders (there are many). 

Anyone who ignores all the new evidence available and blindly worships the perps dishonors the dead and victims and the now suffering first responders that can't get medical care.

Go away to your own thread and spread your idiocy, Preston, thanks. 

Vonissk, your story is more appropriate to this thread. Thanks for sharing. It feels real. 

Hey Beetree, numerous times you have insulted me in regard to my posts and dissed them.  What's good for the goose is good for the gander. Instead of insulting folks and acting like an ignorant person, do the research and learn the facts. You have a pattern of name calling against anyone who has a different opinion of you.  Grow up and get a life.

You're right, Preston.  Nobody should be "celebrating" what happened on 9/11/01.  I think Beetree would agree with that too.

You said: "...honor and support to the victims families, and the surviving and sick first responders (there are many)." 

I think that's the purpose of this thread.  To honor and remember the fallen.  To reflect on what happened to the individuals, not the why's, because  you are covering that on another thread. 

So please my friend, can just this one single thread be about sorrow for the dead, the dieing, and remembering the heroes of that awful day?  Maybe a place for people to express their feelings about that day?


For myself, I can't remember anything from that day save for sitting in front of the TV, watching in horror, nothing else.  I remember how the hospitals in the area geared up to help people but there wasn't anyone to help because almost everyone was dead. I remember for days  the news reports showing the flyers of all the missing and their family members searching for them, but they were all gone.  Later, I became fixated on understanding what size of an area would fit a group of 3,000 people, I couldn't wrap my head around how many people that was, what a group of 3,000 people would look like.   And oh my god, the first responders and rescuers who lived, sifting sifting sifting through the rubble, searching for the living and the dead and finding so few of either.

 

All we can remember is seeing it on the Television and looking on in disbelief at the scenes we were seeing something that no honest free living person will ever forget.
We felt the suffering of the people from a long way away, and our hearts were with them and still is for that terrible day.

I was babysitting my grandson, watching Sesame Street, when my daughter called to ask me to turn the channel to the news, because she said the drivers (she worked at a building supply company) were saying a small aircraft had hit the WTC. I turned to NBC just in time to see the second plane hit the tower. I remember thinking, "This is war, we are under attack." I remember how my body went numb. I called my future husband because he owned a building in Manhattan at that time, to see if he was safe, he was in his home in NJ, in disbelief, thinking it must have been a movie, too. I sat on the corner of my daughter's coffee table, in front of the tv, holding my small grandson on my lap, weeping. I don't think I realized what I was seeing after that first shock. Then they said that the Pentagon had been hit, & the first tower fell. I called my daughters work back, sobbing, & her boss answered the phone, I told him the first tower fell, with all those EMTs & rescuers under it, he said, "You're crazy. Those towers will never fall!" And he hung up on me. Jen called me back saying he had finally turned on the little tv in his office, & was just staring at it. Then the 2nd tower fell. Somewhere along the line they announced that the plane went down in Pa. My daughters house is under the flight pattern of ABE International airport, usually you hear planes going over all day, but they're high enough up that you don't really pay any attention. The rest of that day the silence was deafening. I never thought about it at the time, to shield my little grandson, but when the first flights resumed a few days later, he was terrified. He drew little crayon pictures of planes crashing into buildings for weeks. And I think there's still a little part of me that's still numb. That day the sky was the deepest blue, it was such a pretty day; it took a very long time before I could appreciate a beautiful day again.

My heart goes out to the families of the fallen heroes, please understand you all are in my thoughts & prayers every day, & I shall never forget, as long as I live.

And Preston, I know very well who to blame.

God Bless America.
