the WTC was so populated, from the thousands of employees, to the rooftop club, to the mini-mall on the lower level, the popular Century 21 department store and Marriott across the street, the subway station under the building carrying commuters from every NYC borough as well as path trains from New Jersey, to the tourists that crowd the area daily... the number of innocent people affected must be staggering.
my prayers to the victims, and my sincere hopes that all of the visitors to this site were not in the vicinity of the disaster, and that all of their friends and loved ones in the city are safe as well.

USA, Contemplate, take it and use it wisely.. ..I refer to the anger you feel... Hope the justice we all pray for is duly found..
..and maybe there's a message here as well... for people in the US that ritually read of sectarian violence and a cause they may even contribute ... Maybe now they can now sympathise with the bombings we have had to ritually endure (remember Bishopsgate) over the years.. sorry to get on a soapbox but violence and any act of this nature is beyond contempt.
Terrorists for all their belief are generally self serving gangsters in disguise.. peace would mean they have all too much to lose..
So much hate in the world.. too much sorry.

a crisis like this brings perspective into our lives and eliminates the trivial things that consume us so often...i'm so sorry.
although we are now united in love and compassion for each other let us not become united in hate and anger...we cannot support the bombing of any country if it will result in the lives of more innocent....their blood will not bring retribution for the blood of our innocent.
unfortunately, life doesn't stop in the wake of crisis...it should. we live in a society so self centered and disconnected; people "don't care"...
but this page is an encouragement...to know that people do put aside trivial things that keep us down...we can lift each other up...thank you.
thanks to everybody for their concern, and my prayers go out to the victims and the families of the victims of todays terrorism...

Who is responsible for this disaster???? (Score:0)
However, I would like to take the opportunity to express a different political view of this horrible event:
As a person living in Greece (i.e. very close to Middle East region), I have no doubt of the intense and sometimes violent aspects of muslim religion.On the other hand, I know that disasters with thousands of innocent victims are part of the daily routine in places like Palestine or Iraq and this is due to military or political US goverment actions on most of the occassions.Thousands of children still die in Iraq, due to the medicine embargo against them. However, only a few western people sympathise those poor unfortunate Iraqis.......It is so sad to see people cheering after this horrible tragedy, but all of you should think a bit further: the palestinian or iraqis (or whatever) that you saw on CNN yesterday are not some crazy, ugly lunetics;these people have suffered from death, loss, poverty, ilnesses throughout all their lives, due to "civilised" world actions. Now they are happy about the killing of innocent Americans, but they don't know.To their eyes, we are all responsible for their misery and this is not completely untrue. Furthermore, do not forget that people like Landen, Hussein, Milosevic were heavily supported by the US in the past. All of these monsters were in fact created by secret agents of the "free world".....They were good friends then and in return they would get the technology, the weapons, the money, the political support......
Now the monsters have turned against the people who created them....(in fact, against completely innocent people......).....
So I am asking:
WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS MESS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD?
Against my sympathy to all the innocent victims no matter if they are Americans, Africans, Palestinians, Muslims, Ugly, Rich or whatever.....
It's very easy to critisise people from your comfortable living room, but there are millions of people out there who live and behave like wild animals, simply because they never had the opportunity to do otherwise.....

When something like this happens it is reasonable to assume that there is something horribly wrong in our world. Searching for people who did this might be comparatively easy because they are human beings and can be physically arrested and eventually slain by the Justice. But will that be the end for the terror and will that solve the problem lying underneath? I don't think so. I think that this is a clear message for the American people, there is some people in the world who don't like you. Some people whose toes you have stepped on. People who you have used when you have built your glorious society. How long did you think that you can live in peace, without caring for the problems of the outside world while exploiting the people living in third world countries and making you great? You thought that you can use them without any limit to get yourself all the prosper and the power in our small world. Have you considered why you are so rich and powerful? Is it because you are just so much better than other people in the world? Wake up, we are all the same, we have to take care of each other. It's easy to find faults in other people, but not easy to admit that "we were asking for this".
I don't blame any American private citizen, I've met some of you and always enjoyed your company. And truly I feel sad and frightened. This is the ultimate moment for our whole humanity. World will never be the same after this and we have several different paths now to choose. I sincerely hope that we can learn something. If we don't, we have lost maybe the most important moment in our history to make life better for all people in our globe. Vladimir Putin and Yasser Arafat were the greatest people to appear in television yesterday and I hope that George W. will take mature stand in this issue and all my support goes to him now (although I earlier was always against him). We have a chance now to find cooperation between all these parties. We don't need war now (or ever), noone wants it. Still many times it happens committed by those very same people who didn't want it. Revenge should be out of question, it doesn't do any good for anyone. We should make sure that our leaders won't make this situation any worse. Muslims are the same as we are, they have the same God as we (jews and christians) have, it is all just a matter of interpretation. They don't know God any better than we do and vice-verca. Could human being ever know God that well that he could tell about him or even write a book? God can't be translated to any human language, all opinions about Him are all equally incomplete, we shouldn't be fighting for it (that only shows our weakness). If it appears that people who did this are muslims, it doesn't mean that whole muslim world will accept this and we shouldn't blame them.
People who have lost some loved ones, although how impossible it sounds (written by someone so far away from there), please forgive those who committed this. Revenge don't make it any better.
Although how horrible this all is, I'm feeling optimistic for the future. We have to consider our values again, how important money and success are compared to peace and life. Maybe tomorrow we live in the better world, we can if we want.
