Live on the news...the World Trade Center towers have been hit by two twin engine aircraft...one caught live on TV while the first was burning.
This is terrorism, not an accident.

Easy there you two!!
There were civilians on those planes, and this ain't about scoring points.
Also looks like the Pentagon was hit at around the same time, same tactics.
Does anyone know if anyone claimed responsibility??
But I cant help thinking Diesel, after all your talk about the IRA and their "cause" dont you sometimes wish you weren't so ready to hop into bed with terrorists, especially now that your own country has become a target??? I think maybe you should think before you condone such actions again. But then of course, these "freedom fighters" as you would put it probably had a very good reason for attacking the USA. Care to elaborate???
US border with Mexico and Canada has been closed.
All air and most surface transportation is either shut down or in the processs.
All military reserves have been called up.
US Government in Patterson, NJ, also hit with bomb.
This is the first aniversary date of the 'Camp David Accords' and there may be a connection.
FAA has tape from pilot of one of the terrorist just before he crashed his plane.
Too bad they didn't hit the UN building while they were at it.
None of this surprises me, with israel for friends we, US, can have the rest of the world for enemeys.
We in US have faced many acts of terrorism over the years, some external, most internal...this it truly worse than Pearl Harbor and US is going on war footing.
To our english cousing, thank you for the compassion shown...don't be too shocked by the responce which will probably go neuclear.
In Seattle we have passenger plane coming from Japan which has no fuel to go elsewhere...I expect they will get a fighter escort past the city ot outlaying airfield.
This is indeed WAR...our 'allies' in occupied palestine will be sucking hind tit over this one!
Best wishes...find a gun and protect your families...riots are coming next...US & UK!

YOU FUCKING SADISTIC **** .....You are fucking lucky I dont know you..How can you possibly try to score cheap points against Diesel when tens of thousands of people have just died..You make me fucking sick.
Same goes for you Whowhere...Have you got no fucking compassion...FIFTY FUCKING THOUSAND PEOPLE WORK IN THE WORLD TRADE CENTRE
Diesel, you have my sincere compassion. I hope nobody you know was anywhere near any of the crash sites.
Bush has got to do something about this...Let Israel of its leash...FUCK THOSE ARAB MOTHERFUCKERS......IF IT WERE UP TO ME ID NUKE AFGHANISTAN AND PALESTINE.
For the rest of you, the IRA could have committed an act like this in England. They never did.
you total hypocrite. do you not think there are thousands and thousands of innocent people living in afghanistan and palestine????! *shakes head*
Out of my mind. Back in five minutes.
I dont give a flying fuck....The population of Palestine IS DANCING IN THE STREETS SHOUTING PRAISE GOD.....Fuck them...
WHY WHY WHY WHY THE HELL DID THEY DO THIS JUST WHEN AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE STARTING TO SUPPORT THE ARABS OVER THE ISRAELIS....This bombing is going to turn the entire western world against all arabs.
WAR WILL COME IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS. AMERICAN WILL LET ISRAEL LOOSE AND ALL FUCKING HELL WILL BREAK OUT.
BTW: Dont forget that there is coverage from all of the news channels and you may of noticed that the beeb have cancelled most programs this evening and switching to News 24

I want to extend my condolences to the American people. Just pray that Bush doesn't retaliate. Violence is NEVER the answer.
When and if the USA strikes back, US citizens will probably celebrate, too, even if Arab civilians are killed.

What total bollocks...You expect them to do nothing and welcome more attacks? Violence is the ONLY answer against these people. Whether its a nuke or whether its the surgical extraction of Bin Laden

However, Diesel supports terrorists in this country and revels in their attacks. This is the sound of chickens coming home to roost, D. This is what living with terrorists is all about, this is the kind of thing (though admittedly never on this scale) that we have lived with for over 30 years. This is the US's wake up call and I hope they heed it.
As I said, hope you catch the fuckers too...

YOU SICK FUCK! 100,000 PEOPLE ARE DEAD. 100,000. CONTEMPLATE THAT YOU DIRTY MOTHERFUCKER. 100,000 INNOCENT PEOPLE STANDING IN A FUCKING FIELD ALL FUCKING DEAD AND YOURE FUCKING LAUGHING ABOUT IT? YOU ARE A SICK AND TWISTED LITTLE FUCK AND I HOPE YOU FUCKING ROT IN HELL.
MAYBE DIESEL DOESNT KNOW WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT HALF THE TIME, BUT WHO GIVES A FUCK. 100,000 INNOCENT PEOPLE. DEAD.
SO SHUT THE FUCK UP AND SIT THE FUCK DOWN.
NORTHERN IRELAND YES DOES HAVE ITS PROBLEMS AND YES PEOPLE HAVE DIED. INNOCENT AND GUILTY. DEAD. I RESPECT THAT.
BUT DONT COME HERE LAUGHING YOU SICK TWISTED BASTARD BECAUSE YOU DONT KNOW WHAT ITS LIKE IN THE STATES RIGHT NOW.
AND YOUR DAD ISNT IN NEW YORK, EITHER.

I don't believe in flattening a whole country for revenge, but I do believe in shift violent action against those responsible. If some inocents get hurt, it was their own people that brought it about. We have to send a message to the world that the US will not tolerate this. Britain has had it's share of suffering from terrorist and I know as a whole they will support us in whatever is done. It's time we put our foot down on all terrorist groups worldwide and those countries that give them asylum. No other single terrorist act in history has produced this kind of devastation. What some of you have to understand is, this is ongoing. The anger is fresh and some post here from my fellow Americans will express that extreme anger. For those of you British that extent your symathy. Thank you.
"I'd rather have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it."
WAKE UP CALL?!?!?!?!??!
THIS ISNT A FUCKING HOTEL, IS IT?
WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT A WAKE UP CALL?
DO YOU THINK EVERY SINGLE AMERICAN IN THE COUNTRY HAS VIEWS ON PALESTINE? FUCK, MOST OF THEM DONT EVEN KNOW HOW TO SPELL IT.
THE FACT IS THAT MOST PEOPLE HAD NO IDEA WHAT-SO-EVER WHAT PALESTINE IS OR WHAT IS EVEN GOING ON OVER THERE.
Yes, i understand what most people are talking about with all the IRA and all that shit. Yes its sad. Yes its tragic. But you cant contrast and compare and say 'oh OUR shit doesnt smell, OUR casualties are SO much better'.
Still, 100,000 people being killed at ONCE? thats pretty crazy.
People are assholes. People are mean. People are evil.
But birds are still singing, and the sun will rise again tommorow. Thats the good news.
Hey, i dunno about all you, but I'm moving to Canada. In the quiet words of the virgin mary...
"Fuck this shit".

More worryingly for me is Tony Blair's decision to stand "shoulder to shoulder" with American. Obviously the attacks were despicable but there's a difference between condemnation and aggrevation, I don't want Britain to also be a target. I can fully forsee Dubbya having a knee-jerk reaction and triggering a worse catastrpohe than that which we've seen today, frankly that scares the s*** outta me.
"I'm not living, I'm just
killing time.
Also im sorry about the caps in the second post of mine. As you can understand... im pretty fucking scared and worried right now for all my friends and family. Also living in such a big city like San Francisco is amazingly scary right now... i dunno when i could be blown up.
If any of you give a flying fuck... my dad is fine, he was staying in uptown new york when it happened, not downtown.
My aunt is good friends with supermodel Heidi Klum, they actually have a picture of them infront of the world trade center with it flaming in the background.
I'd imagine that thats a peice of history right there...

Youre being a little naive there Kate..Britain IS already a MAJOR target..We are Americas number one ally in the world..If we werent already a target then why the massive security measures? Why are our armed forces on high alert? Why are all planes ordered not to fly over London.
We are not going to become more of a target for supporting Bush.
BTW, where are you in herts?
Someone made a good point...the IRA never did anything like this to england...they could have but didn't.
Right now US is heading towards martial law...I expect it to be announced by this time tomorrow...ALL military has been recalled and put on stand by...included retired, reserves, National Guard, etc.
Driving around Seattle the last hour I did not see even one police car, patrol, etc. Banks are closing, there is already a run on grocery stores...it really looks like the shit has hit the fan!
This will not get better for anyone...and if some of those missing USSR pocket nukes turn up...it will go live worldwide.
It will be interesting to see what happens with troops deployed in Bosnia and the Balkans in general...!
US military went to Code RED about two hours ago...that is a dangerous state of affairs.
Good luck to you cousins, you have your own problems to solve...as do we.

As for Diesel, I'm not trying to score points of him, especially during an event like this, something I could never wish on anybody, all I want is for him to see the hypocrisy of his writing when he supports what the IRA are doing.
My heart goes out to everyone involved in any way in this tradgedy. Lets all hope that the 'world leaders' find the knowledge and grace to deal with this appropriately.
I can see clearly now, the rain has gone.
Personally i think this should be the spark for the West to knock a few heads together ,Palestinian and Israeli ,and MAKE them agree a settlement over Palestine . Im assuming this is related to that problem.
An armed response by the US would be absolutely disasterous ,targetting terrorist leaders in refugee camps in the middle east would lead to more massive civilian deaths and more people prepared to carry out more outrages like this.
There has to be an equitable peaceful solution to the Palestinian problem or it could drag the whole world into war.
Maybe i'll dig my way to Canada. Like some Daffy Duck cartoon. I dunno, this is me being delirious.
