This is a small collection of links, organized into four consecutive categories:
1- A look back from now.
2- The 9-11 attack "as it went down, live..."
3- The aftermath.
4- Remembrance.
As with all such posts, there are links within links within links, and to fully remember and inform yourself, you need to follow them all- but be warned!
Some will take you to gruesome pictures and disturbing stories, so tread carefully.
I honestly believe that most Americans need to view these things, and never forget, or forgive, what was visited on defenseless and innocent people on that black day.
Use your own judgement, but look if you can.

A look back:
The Eve of Destruction - 9/10/2002
Free Dominion ^ | September 11, 2002 | Entropy Squared
"World War III started on September 11, 2001 as surely as World War II started with the bombing of Pearl Harbor. What you are seeing in these pictures is a sneak attack by enemies who want to destroy the freedom and liberty we enjoy, as surely as the Japanese wanted to destroy us and as surely as the Nazis wanted to destroy us."
The original "as it happened" --
"CNBC reports a plane has hit the World Trade Center in NY. No details..."
The Sierra Times - One Year Ago 09.11.01 Report by J.J. Johnson Published 09. 10. 02 at 21:36 Sierra Time
|
Then, the rest:
"The story of the victims who jumped to their deaths is the most sensitive aspect of the Sept. 11 tragedy. Photographs of people falling to their deaths shocked the nation...It was worse than people realize."
Fair warning- there are gruesome pictures on this post. You have been cautioned!
"When the whining, sappy, head-in-the-sand idiots at work say we shouldn't go to war, we should put all this behind us (and believe me, they have been saying these things) I've pointed to that shot and asked if they would feel any different if that was their mother, father or child."
And finally, remembrance:

The Massacre of September 11th.
Never, never, never, never forget what subhuman terrorist filth did to the US on 9-11-01. To put the destruction into proper scale, this GroundZero photo essay helps. As do these remarkable photos, even more drive home the point that it was a massacre of innocents. And if you'd like to ratchet your anger and hatred up, as mine has been since that awful day last September, read this account of the dozens of people jumping from 100+ stories from the WTC Towers. As this reporter says, "embrace the rage". And The Washington Times weighs-in with their commemorative edition of 9-11 horror.
Here's the live thread, on freerepublic.com, and the ongoing posts that I caught on that terrible morning, as it happened.
Here's a 9-11 News Site, which covers it, superbly. As if we needed reminding.
Here are the 2998 Victims of The Massacre of September 11th, 2001. As of 6.19.03, only 1,500 of the innocent victims have been identified; the rest were vaporized. Are you getting angry, again, as I am?
After the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, which killed six and injured 1,000; President Rapist-Liar-in-Chief Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished. After the 1995 bombing in Saudi Arabia, which killed five U.S. military personnel; Rapist-Liar-in-Chief Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished. After the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing in Saudi Arabia, which killed 19 and injured 200 U.S. military personnel; Rapist-Liar-in-Chief Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished. After the 1998 bombing of U.S. embassies in Africa, which killed 224 and injured 5,000; Rapist-Liar-in-Chief Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished. After the 2000 bombing of the USS Cole, which killed 17 and injured 39 US sailors; Rapist-Liar-in-Chief Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished. Maybe if Rapist-Liar-in-Chief Clinton had kept his promise, an estimated 3,000 people in New York and Washington, DC, that are now dead, would be alive today. The Criminal Clinton lowlifes Klintoon Kriminals; ahhhhh, what a pair!
Need to keep up your anger, hate and rage quotient, for The Massacre of 9-11? Go to Toby Keith's site, or Darryl Worley's site; here's the video to that song.
I don't want justice; I want revenge! Never forget.

Exactly.
If we cease to care; if we ever forget:
We will owe the unpayable debt.
Blood and fury cry out from the ground;
Our heads still echo from the sound.
The lives that ended that day
The twisted wreckage, raw and gray;
Still haunt our memory as they must;
If we forget we will become dust.

Does someone have a link to that web page with all of the photos and the Enya song playing in the background? Very powerful.
