All,

This is the most amazing video I have seen and I am now po'ed to no end. Brings home why we are in the middle east right now.

It's a phone call of Kevin Cosgrove to a 9/11 operator while in Tower 2 of the World Trade Center. The call is set to video and is chilling.

One more reason for us to support Israel in their war against Hezbollah--the first cousin of Al Quaeda.

I can't take this. DAMN THEM!! And the firemen who were on their way to save them died, too.

And even if they do so, lying for the advancement of Islam is a duty, so you can't believe them.

Believe it or not, there are many, probably millions, of "reform" muslims. Not whacked out at all. You'd probably call them MINO's. Other parts of the world, like Turkey and Indonesia are full of them. Alot of Egyptians too. Having said that, there are not nearly enough of them.

IIRC, there was a survey, that showed that about 10% of Muslims worldwide that agreed with Osama. Heck, thats 100 million targets right there..

While I don't agree with the poster about killing women and children, the sad and scary part is that the radical Islamists that we are at war with do not care about killing women and children one single bit. That is the depth of moral depravity we are fighting and we just might have to get down and dirty to win (i.e. preserve out way of life). They are willing to...

Hint: Tone it down

And the naive appeasers will watch this (if they dare) and see nothing but America's just desserts.

THAT is the saddest aspect of this war, that not only must we fight the evil of radical Islam, but the apathy of so many of our brothers and sisters who will never feel the threat until they feel the knife at their own throats.

Perhaps, not even then.

I can't take this. DAMN THEM!! And the firemen who were on their way to save them died were murdered, too.

Fixed.

At the risk of being received like Ann Coulter, that KC guy was quite an unlikable and unpleasant personality.

I tend to agree. He was rather nasty ("your air-conditioned office") to a 911 operator who was doing what little she could to help him. Yeah, everybody else has been posting how he was under such stress, etc. -- that's exactly the point. Extraordinary stress brings out 'the real you.' We have plenty of recorded phone calls of other people, like those on the hijacked jets or in other emergencies altogether, who do *not* take out their fears and frustrations on whoever happens to answer the phone.

Thanks for the link. I did not know anything about FreeRepublic in 2001 so to read the comments "live" so to speak, brings back that horrible day in vivid detail. As much as I'd like to have the horror erased from my memory it is so very important to remember and never forget.

I just do not know what to say. My fingers can barely move to type right now. For the rest of his family members' lives, Oh God, OH will resonate their every breath. I am so, so sorry.
