HELP US!

World Trade Center Photos

[eddie willers]

I feel so angry and helpless.

[cdwright]

That's a signal from God to pray.

[rintense]

I am in tears...

[freedom4ever]

What parts of the Pentagon has been hit? My brother is there.

[JMJ333]

An eyewitness on fox said that bodies were flying everywhere. I can't imagine the horror. Sweet Jesus, help us in our time of need.

[DoughtyOne]

I just woke up to find this on the television. Frankly I'm in shock! This is one hell of a time to have your military at it's lowest strength in 50 years.

[Aquinasfan]

God help us! PRAY FOR MERCY!

[ElTianti]

and we need to kill EVERY one of them. We must commit to war without restraint regardless of the consequences

[thingumbob]

I'm so mad that I contacted my congressmen and senators via their local offices to tell them to fully fund the military...this is war now. Throw the U.N. out of this country NOW!

Those God da*n Bast*rds!!!! God I just don't know what esle to do but cry like hell.

"If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves...."

Until recent decades, America's leadership acknowledged through America's laws and its public discourse its dependence upon the Supreme Power of that Being who, as the Founders stated, is the "Ruler of Nations."

An America that ignores God's commandments and His sustaining power is a vulnerable America. Perhaps it is time to reconsider the Founding ideas in this time of emergency!

[American in Israel]

What UN? Arn't their offices at the World Trade Center? Excuse me folks, but the stock market is history...

[Bob]

Fox News is reporting that it was the south side near the heliport.

[freedom4ever]

THanks! His office is right below the Secretary of Defense's Is this that side. Been there but can't remember. We haven't heard anything from him, yet.

Lock & load

Unfortunately, the ideas of the founders may become even more distant. We are poised for a grand assault of American Bill of Rights including gun rights. Freepers are mad and justifiably so but even many of they will probably applaud a civil liberties and gun rights crackdown. The hysteria will could be completely out of control. Let's hope Dubya keeps his head. We are depending on him.

[xp38]

God Bless America in it's time of trial. Prayers for the nation.

[Battlecries]

My mother normally posts here, and under her own name, but I had to be here to tell you all that we have witnessed a very grisly sequel to pearl harbor... I am so enraged I cannot think. I just know that I want blood. I want war. I want to erase the these BASTARDS from the face of my planet (thank god this wasnt under Gore!!!!!) Rally true Patriots!!! For the love of god give me Justice!

[skeeter]

I'll pray for the souls of the dead. But whoever did this needs to pray for mercy.

[Austin Willard Wright]

We want justice but let's not throw liberty (including gun rights and the bill of rights) on the dustbin of history to achieve it. Unfortunately, this may well happen as hysteria boils over.

[East Bay Patriot]

Death.

All I want is death for whoever did this.

Bush had better nuke the country that did this.

My God...I cannot believe I'm watching this...my God...

[xp38]

Here in Canada we are watching and listening in awe. There was a report that said the internet was shutting down but I am glad for the moment it is still up and running. There will no doubt be a lot of false tips in this moment of crisis.

[Bob]

His office is right below the Secretary of Defense's Is this that side. Been there but can't remember. We haven't heard anything from him, yet.

Sorry, I don't have any further info. Fox is reporting that the outer wall on the south side was hit. The other sides appear intact and the inner rings should be OK.

I'm praying that he'll contact you as soon as he can. In situations like this, communications are spotty at best.

[michigander]

[Battlecries]

I want war. I cannot see very far forward now. i am unconcerned by gunrights. my sole focus now is unbridled warfare on whatever country did this i want to see their country in flames i want thier people dead. I will be watching. if war is declared, i am enlisting.

[SauronOfMordor]

The United States is now at war
With who, we don't know yet

This is more damage (and probably loss of life, once all reports are in) than Pearl Harbor.

[Battlecries]

I have a sister in there somewhere. I pry for the families of those lost, and for those who are yet to be lost. I want the country responsible destroyed.

[A. Pole]

whatever country did this i want to see their country in flames i want thier people dead

Any country? Remember Oklahoma bombing. Also think about what is the strategy of terrorism and what is the mechanism of provocations. Keep your head cool.

[Battlecries]

my sister is safe, she was on long island far away. I am going to find a bar that is open. I am not any more calm than i was when my stepfather woke me in time to see the second plane hit the WTC. this wasnt another Mcveigh this was foreign. to hell i'd commit them. if it were in my power.

[Brimack34]

I think they dropped those buildings on purpose. They would have had too how they went down and the fact it would level several blocks.

[BenR2]

Good post: Our liberties will probably indeed come under attack, as you so astutely surmise. However, I am depending on God (not Bush) -- and praying for Bush (and all our leaders -- executive, legislative, judicial, and military)!

[Battlecries]

No, buildings of that mass and volume tend to collapse inward. the second one was still jagged after the first collapse.

[Mr. Logic]

Prepare for the possible onslaught of movies claiming this was masterminded by the military to increase defense spending. It seems ludicrous but it has been suggested before. Of course, they are full of crap, but that never seems to stop Hollywood. What a tragedy that it seems to me could have been averted or at least lessened by increasing defense. What does the money put into social programs look like in the light of disparaging of your very life?

[Austin Willard Wright]

Do you also agree with battlecries lack of concern about gun rights as expressed in his post?

[Brimack34]

Do you think we will ever know? I have heard nothing on the News. There is no way they just fell like that. Also did they or would they shoot down any plane not responding to them. Like pittsburgh.

[Battlecries]

continue to worry about your gunrights! please do! hold your gun, rub it fondly as the country erupts into flames around you. how many died today does anyone (but this fixated idiot) have an accurate tally?

[Austin Willard Wright]

I am glad that your earlier comments were apparently in haste. I am outraged by this attack but it will empower the terrorists if we throw the bill of rights out the window as soom freepers have already called for. Please note the martial law thread.

give me bodies.

[Maelstrom]

Mercy? No, they need to repent, for only God will find mercy for them if they are capable of doing so.

There will be no mercy in this nation for such cretins.

[Maelstrom]

Basic materials engineering.

Yes, those buildings fell, just like that.

On the next episode of the left wing tv series, West Wing.....

[rebelsoldier]

I used to work in that tower, which is actually called One World Trade Center, the one with the telecommunications antenna tower on it. Were I still there I would have been killed. Also, with regard to the comments of some others, this isn't a time for blanket consideration of law abiding American citizens the equivalent of terrorist coward filth by suggesting disarmament and the suspension of constitutional rights as a public safety measure. We didn't do this in WWII and there is no reason whatsoever to suggest such a silly and illogical thing now. Armed, free, and loyal Americans are our strength and best chance for victory, not a threat.
