CNN showed the original coverage of the 9/11 thru their website in realtime.

RIP all the victims of this horrible crime.

'' RIP all the victims of this horrible crime.'' Amen to that.

But '93' symbolised a Phoenix of hope representing a spirit which refused victimhood. No nation or creed owns self-sacrifice
as two World Wars have demonstrated but it is truly inspirational that ordinary people were able to summon such resources of courage.

But there weren't any!

Nope. No Israelis there.

And here's the latest Al-Jazeera poll, the results of a questionnaire taken by 41,260 Arab viewers. Question #2:
Quote:
2) Do you support Osama bin Laden?
Yes - 49.9 %
No - 50.1 %
Nope, no Israelis there, either.

Movie: The Arab and Iranian Reaction to 9/11 - 5 Years later.

Nope, no Israelis there, either.

To be fair, there were Muhammedans dancing in the streets, yes, but whatever it is worth, their was a good ammount of shock and disbelief and sympathy expressed by people on the street in most if not all Muslim countries as well. Also, worries about what this would mean for realtions with America. In the immediate time after 9/11, people from almost all the world were standing beside America. And most of that was no theatre-playing.

I remember a poor tribe from Africa who still lived traditonally, who even collected amongst the families that did not have much, and handed over some cows or goats to the American ambassador "to ease the pain and suffering of the american people."

Considering that now America has the opinions from almost all the world against it, reminds us of what it has lost since then. I doubt that it would have gone that way if there would have been some more competent and responsible leader like Roosevelt or Eisenhower in the WH. Not only has this government managed to reverse almost all sympathies the american people earned on 9/11, it has also deconstructed many, and most vital, parts of America's traditional claims on values, justice, and humanitarian ideals. the contrast between the perception of America before and during 9/11, and today, couldn't be any greater. it began with Iraq, and worstend even more with Abu Graibh and Guantanamo, the latter of which making bad jokes of everything good that there has been in American justice and legal values.

Too bad there is no way of telling what Roosevelt or Eisenhower would have done. Wondering about that is as useful as wondering if Ali could have knocked out Joe Louis. Remember, both of these leaders also opted for war during their terms.

Got anything reputable? How about WhatReallyHappened.com? StormFront? Rense? I'm sure there's a job in Al Jazeera for you.

All from the mouth of an anonymous housewife, printed in the Bergen Record, the day after 9/11, when every 2 bit reporter is out scrounging for sensationalist news.

Some say they were smiling. Others say they were congratulating each other. Most like to say they were dancing. Very professional, these stealth Mossad agents are! Well, no more danicng lessons at Aurthor Murray's from now on!

Here is a follow-up from long ago: Four Israelis sue Ashcroft. Lovely. Similarly: Putting a "Blood Libel" to Rest.

Loser.

A Chilling Tale.

First time I've heard of this.

actually, there are many other stories of warnings by Muslims in this country. The link below has a lot of great information from open source publications.
