September 11 2001?

Question

I need to ask 15 people how they feel about 9/11. So how do you feel about 9/11?

Answer 1

That's a pretty big question.

Do you mean how do I think the perpetrators should be punished? How do I feel about how the world has changed? How do I feel about the way the U.S. reacted to it?

I have a million feelings. They all relate to different parts of the day. I watch a documentary on the hijackers and I feel anger and hate. I watched CNN's coverage on the 5 year anniversary as they scrolled the victims' names at the bottom and I cried - and I cried even harder when one of the victims' names came across with a "4" after it - her age. I watch coverage of the war on Iraq and I want to scream, YOU IDIOTS, HE'S NOT IN IRAQ! WTF ARE YOU DOING THERE?

There is no one "feeling" about 9/11, and to adequately describe how I "feel" about it, I'd need a lot more room than Yahoo allows.

Answer 2

The stock expression of sadness, of course. Also, an overwhelming sense of frustration - that the US has used this as an excuse to kill countless more innocent people in Iraq, at the lack of discussion on the attack other than 'it was a tragedy' and mourning of the dead (of course this should happen, but for it to be just that is a waste, because the terrorists bombed the Twin Towers for a reason, and understanding and possibly trying to remedy the reasoning behind it is, in my opinion, a better reaction than killing everyone), and that those who do so are accused of 'being on the terrorists' side.'

Answer 3

One of the most shocking human tragedies the Western democrtaised world has ever seen, albeit a dramatically overhyped one in terms of the actual life lost - a drop in the ocean compared to the scale of today's real killers, which btw, don't carry Kalashnikovs.

It sickens me that fraudsters moved in on 9/11 - recommend C4's docu 'The 9/11 liars'

Answer 4

A very tradgic day - but also a day of great heroism such as the actions taken by NYC fire fighters and policmen plus the actions of the passengers on flight 93. They showed us the best of humanity and what it means to be an American. There were many heros that day.

As horrible as that day was - it made me proud to be an American and I think it brought this country closer together than maybe we have been since December 7, 1941 as I have learned.

Answer 5

Sept 11, 2001 ...a defining moment in US History. I feel proud and humbled by the sacrifice of our fellow first responders that lost their lives while trying to save others.

God Bless the USA

Answer 6

9/11 - WAKE UP CALL TO BUSH to change his froeign Policies about Israel

Bush and his Admin CO-PLANNED 9/11. Osama is even more rich due to 9/11, and he pays Bush off - so those two are LAUGHING allthe way to the BANK

another FACT: the BUSH and BIN LADEN FAMILY are close friends, they date back several years. Just read a World History book and you will see..................

Answer 7

I feel very angry about it! Why must so many innocent lives be taken? And just in ONE day. It was a very tragic day. Why must there be such thing as terriosts? Why? But I also feel very proud of the people that gave up their lifes in the midst of rescuing others.

Answer 8

It was a tragic day.

The initial tragedy is the 2,996 innocent lives snuffed out by Islamic terrorists.

The greater tragedy is that the world still refuses to wake up and smell the coffee.

Answer 9

I feel that it changed my whole worldview, at least in terms of how safe I think I am. I think it truly was an enormity, a depth charge, something that will keep rocking the political and religious spheres for as long as I can imagine.

Answer 10

i develop into also in third grade. i develop into at college even as it exceeded off, and that i save in concepts really a lot everybody getting picked up early. My instructor had informed us we did not have homework, (after assigning homework firstly), and that i then by employing the top of the day there have been some law enforcement officials patrolling round college, (some SWAT adult men in finished equipment too), and that i had gotten picked up by employing my grandpa (my grandparents watched my sister and that i each and every Tuesday). when I were given abode, my grandma develop into making a huge deal of it, saying some planes crashed, and that i did not imagine of it as a huge deal. It wasn't till my older cousin had defined to me terrorism and Bin encumbered and the immensity of the attack. I save in concepts Bush getting on television asking us to do a candle prayer difficulty, and then we went to mattress. It fairly hadn't affected me a lot, on the grounds that i develop into so youthful and did not comprehend what had exceeded off. yet because the years went by employing, and that i grew to develop into extra politically unsleeping and whatnot, I want i develop into older so i'd have understood on the time.
