This article is about a month old. I did a search on FR for this article's title, but the search came up empty. So forgive me if this has been posted earlier. A friend of mine called it to my attention today, and I thought it worthy of wider attention here on FR.

Remember those people leaping to their deaths from the top of burning skyscrapers.

Approximately 200 went to the next life in this way.

When I think of 9-11, I think of the approximate 11 seconds it took for these souls
to reach ground level.

(USA Today researched the subject...civil authortities agree that their estimate is
reasonable.)

A VERY VERY worthy post. That it was posted before is irrelevant, as so many didn't see it. It is worth the bandwidth. Thanks for posting it. I would never have seen it, and it lifted my spirits.

Thank you for posting this article.

I believe we have shown an incredidible amount of patience in this country.I also believe our patience is justifiably at end.The USA has never desired world controll.We will not be "controlled " by "world" opinion.

President Bush called it correctly.You are either with us, or you are with the terrorists.

Choose.

Thanks for posting. I never saw it before.

To our shame, George Bush gets a worse press than Saddam Hussein.

And to our shame too. I take this personally. They may be bashing the American government, but I vote for that American Government, so I take this as a slap at me.

I really hold a lot of the American press responsible. They have trashed President Bush since well before the election. They have set him up in the eyes of the world as an idiot cowboy. Shame on them. Their "reporting" is nothing more than personal assaults on his character. It is disgusing. Some free press. The only parts of the paper or news that I take as gospel are the baseball scores, other sport scores, and the obituaries.

Splendid writing. Is it any wonder that the tiny islands of Great Britain have produced a disproportionate number of the world's greatest writers and thinkers? (Including their rougher cousins on this side of the pond.)

I still find it incredible that 9/11 did not provoke all-out war. Not a "war on terrorism". A real war.

So do I.

Wonderful article, I am really grateful to the author for his sympathy and clear understanding of what Sept 11th meant to us. Sadly, part of the reason for all of this hatred and blaming America for the attack was started right here in our own country, and then spread across the seas to infect citizens of other countries.

It continues when our former President tours other nations and blames us and degrades our current President. It spreads even more when some of our Congressmen go into Iraq and call our President a liar.

It is hard to blame the other nations for this when it was perpetuated by our own traitors.
