thanks, kdawg

i can't believe this is happening. this is the biggest event in our lifetimes. the biggest attack ever on american soil. this is cause for war.
it's being compared to pearl harbor. we dropped atomic bombs on japan because of pearl harbor. and this is bigger.
i'm scared for my family (my brother's going to get out of bootcamp in a few weeks)
and i'm terribly terribly sorry, not just for all of the thousands of people that have died but also the hundreds of thousands of people that will suffer as a result of their death.
and this very well may be just the beginning.

If it looks or sounds like bin Laden, it's very likely that he's responsible for this.

I am just saying damn what do you expect him to say? Sorry I am a bit worried I want to know whats going on in Florida. Dad was flying our King Air down there for work this morning and somebody said something about a small plane in Florida.

9/11/2001 1:22:39 PM

yeah, everyone on my buddy list that live in raleigh were signing on and off

9/11/2001 1:23:04 PM

NYU med students now working triage

9/11/2001 1:24:12 PM

this is the beginning

the beginning of the end for those responsible for this terrible attack on our nation

9/11/2001 1:24:24 PM

Everybody is fine on mine. Thank God for res.net and its high speed connection. Least us on campus will probably be alright with our net connection the whole time.

9/11/2001 1:24:31 PM

One of my suitemates just pointed out something to me, it's ironic that all this happened on September 11th, 9-11

9/11/2001 1:25:54 PM

On 9-11-1922, Palestine was made a British Mandate.
On 9-11-1989, the Camp David Peace Accords were signed.

9/11/2001 1:27:14 PM

does anybody know anything about seattle?

9/11/2001 1:27:23 PM

FBI just reported that no one has claimed responsibility.

9/11/2001 1:27:56 PM

shit oskar-i dont even want to think about seattle, thats where all my family is

9/11/2001 1:28:16 PM

the closed that tower thing...but that's all I've heard

9/11/2001 1:28:33 PM

yeah the space needle has be exacuated along with the sears tower in chicago

9/11/2001 1:29:17 PM

Neiter the Jihad nor Hamas have claimed responsibility either.

9/11/2001 1:29:37 PM

Who wants to join me in screaming for these terrorists' blood?

9/11/2001 1:30:10 PM

who would be stupid enough to claim responsibility?

9/11/2001 1:30:17 PM

the news said that someone basically has declared war on us...so it looks like we are probably going to war

9/11/2001 1:30:39 PM

Wienke - those who were stupid enough to do it.

9/11/2001 1:30:47 PM

that's why President Bush is talking with Congress...we're going to have a Declaration of War filled out with a blank spot for the perpetrators

9/11/2001 1:31:25 PM

thatis what I was thinking.. who the fuck are we "at war" with?

9/11/2001 1:32:01 PM

weinke, to us this seems like a horrible tragedy, but to a terrorist group leader this is like scoring the game winning touchdown. the question isn't who would be stupid to take responsibility, but who would be stupid enough not to take responsibility?

9/11/2001 1:32:01 PM

wienke - I really think that the Hamas or Jihad would happily claim responsibility if they did it. A terrorist organization would almost certainly claim responsibility for this if they had done it.

9/11/2001 1:32:13 PM

will this be the first time a nation has declared war on a group of people, and not a nation?

9/11/2001 1:32:31 PM

I really think we're going after Afghanistan if they don't give up Bin Ladin (supposing that he did it).

9/11/2001 1:33:45 PM

my opinion dictates that if Afghanistan doesn't give up Osama Bin Laden, we will declare war on them

9/11/2001 1:33:47 PM

Going to work now....
Stay safe & pray for those who are still missing.

9/11/2001 1:33:49 PM

There's one dude on CNN saying any nation harboring the terroist responsible, will be held equally responsible in the aftermath ....

9/11/2001 1:34:18 PM

bay of pigs, colombian guerrilla, grenada,... so no it isn't the first time. i could be wrong though

9/11/2001 1:34:29 PM

pray for my uncle who works at pentagon...no word yet from family

9/11/2001 1:34:45 PM

actually, most likely, if they targeted the white house, it would of been hit. Remember a few years ago when the small plane crashed into the wall at the white house?

9/11/2001 1:35:13 PM

a friend of mine just said something very true:

Quote :

"How can people smart enough to pull that off be dumb enough to actually do it?"

9/11/2001 1:35:23 PM

yeah, i'd say afghanistan is toast. I mean, remember when we fired hundreds of missiles at them just for attacking Osama striking a little military base in the US. I would probably support a nuclear retaliation.

9/11/2001 1:35:25 PM

those never had a declaration of war...

heck, Vietnam nor The Gulf War had a declaration of war if I recall... but i could be mistaken...

9/11/2001 1:35:29 PM

kdawg and I seem to be on the same page.

9/11/2001 1:35:33 PM

I think the Gulf War was declared.

9/11/2001 1:36:32 PM

I doubt we would use nukes...but we would crush everything...you don't fuck with the US Military

9/11/2001 1:36:46 PM

gamecat, i'm on that page too. whoever is harboring these terrorists, TELL US NOW and we won't erase your country from the face of the earth.

9/11/2001 1:36:56 PM

i dont think i can eat...

9/11/2001 1:37:22 PM

The Gulf War wasn't, Gamecat


roddy...do you think they didn't beef security up because of that little mishap against the WH?

9/11/2001 1:37:35 PM

the arab states fucked themselves this time, they could have stopped this shit, but they didnt so i doubt any country is going to be too supportive of them in there conflict with Isreal any more.

we're gonna beat down someone.... and they wont be getting up everagain...

9/11/2001 1:38:35 PM

kdawg, u think they would shoot down a 747?

[Edited on September 11, 2001 at 1:39 PM. Reason : w]

9/11/2001 1:39:09 PM

last time we declared war was WWII....no joke

9/11/2001 1:39:58 PM

without a doubt, roddy...

...they wouldn't hesitate

9/11/2001 1:39:59 PM

[b]EVERYONE THAT CAN....PLEASE GO DONATE BLOOD AT THE LOCAL RED CROSS....THEY NEED IT!

9/11/2001 1:40:24 PM

I think they shot that one down in PA.

9/11/2001 1:40:41 PM

gamecat i heard it confirmed that they shot it down

9/11/2001 1:42:13 PM

i can see air defenses set up in major citys and targets now....

9/11/2001 1:42:13 PM

I hate to say it, but I agree
