In Memory of the Victims of 9/11     Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine, et lux perpetua luceat eis. Te decet hymnus Deus, in Sion, et tibi reddetur votum in Jerusalem. Exaudi orationem meam; ad te omnis caro veniet. Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine, et lux perpetua luceat eis. Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. A hymn becometh thee, O God, in Sion, and unto thee a vow shall be repaid in Jerusalem. Hear my prayer; unto thee all flesh shall come. Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual...

9/11 Tribute http://www.gunstuff.com/america-attacked.html I got the above link from Free Republic some years ago. I think a lot of Freepers will recognize the link. It was a very moving tribute. I would send it via email every 9/11. Now, the link is not working. Does anyone know if it moved someplace else?

Here's a moving animated video tribute to 9/11, called I Miss You Daddy - September 11th Tribute. Really sad. Puts a human face to this horrible terrorist attack.

As the 5th anniversary of the cowardly and tragic attack on America approaches, let us look back and remember as if we were there. Many people were here on FR, reporting events with lightning speed, with unique insights, with analytical accuracy, with sadness, with anger. Here are some links to the "live" threads from 9/11/01 here on FR. For those of you who have never seen them, it is like watching a piece of history unfold before you, in the familiar style of FR. For those who have seen before but not in a long time, this will be a...

this is a sad beautiful video, which brings all the pain back from that evil day

A very powerful presentation, make sure your speakers are up. You might need to keep some Kleenex nearby. Click Here

This a video I did a while back.

This Thanksgiving let's not forget 911's 5000+ and it's hero's. Let us NEVER Forget.... NEVER FORGET 911

I like to post this once in a while. It was my first try using Windows Movie Maker.

I don't know how old this 9/11 slideshow is, but I had never seen it before. It is quite long but very worthwhile. AMERICA ATTACKED SLIDESHOW Cut and paste this URL if the above link is broken http://www.gunstuff.com/america-attacked.html

When the bell tolled, You answered the call, Without reservation only duty, To Honor your oath you came.   With your valor never weakening, Your response to serve arrived, You set your course to save, Without hesitation you came.   With a never failing courage, A mindset to help and a heart to heal, You answered the solemn call, As the bell tolled again.   Without knowing your fate that day, You looked upon the thousand faces, And saw the fear of death that day,  Without hesitation you came.   Men and women you never knew,Cry out in praise of...

I found this page on FreeRepublic a while ago. It is appropriate today.

Remember that day. Remember our fellow Americans who suffered. Remember our resolve as a nation. Remember who did this to us. Remember to cherish your freedom and those who fought to keep us free.

How can anyone forget the events of 9/11? If you listen to mainstream media you would think they would rather not talk about it. Where are the 9/11 documentaries and television specials? Please remind us! The last time I checked we ARE at war. All of US need to remind THEM that this seminal event will be remembered! The Lafayette Flag Brigade of Lafayette, CA. will remember the heroes with a patriotic, all-American Remembrance and Tribute on 9/11 with a morning remembrance and an afternoon tribute. Check out www.nevereverforget911.com . All are welcome for an unforgetable day!

Photo taken before ceremony. CHARLOTTE, NC --Members of the Charlotte community came out Sunday to remember those lost in the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. The event was organized by the Steven Coakley Foundation, which was created in honor of Coakley and all the other firefighters who lost their lives in the tragedy. Public safety agencies, such as the Charlotte Fire Department and Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department, placed 2,900 American flags in the shape of the Twin Towers in preparation for the upcoming 9/11 event called Flags of Remembrance. "Four years after 9/11, I think a lot of people have...

A tear for WTC victims falls from distant Russia Memorial lands, in sections, at new Bayonne Harbor home Tuesday, August 23, 2005 BY RONALD LEIR JERSEY JOURNAL Loaded on five flatbed trailers and led by a police escort, giant sections of the Teardrop memorial to those killed in the World Trade Center attacks in 1993 and 2001 were transported yesterday to the Peninsula at Bayonne Harbor. There, the 100-foot-high, 170-ton monument will be assembled for a dedication planned for September 2006. Next month, Bayonne will hold a ceremony, tentatively scheduled for Sept. 16, to unveil a commemorative stone engraving near...

Remembrance quilt The many faces of those who perished on 9/11 touch many hearts Wisconsin work on display here By Erin Sullivan July 22, 2005 Lois Jarvis was sitting in her basement studio on Sept. 11, 2001, sewing sweet, smiling faces for greeting cards. She's a deadline person and waited until the last minute to do the cards, which were being picked up the next day. She couldn't stop, so she kept working, crying and sewing as she watched the news of the terrorist attacks unfold. As the World Trade Center towers fell, and thousands of people died, Jarvis...

Please look at this and send to everyone you know in memory and to honor those who died on 9/11/01.

John Maslak was supposed to be overseeing a construction job at the B'nai B'rith building in Washington, D.C., on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, but instead he was at his Lambertsville, Somerset County, home talking to his sister about the upcoming weekend wedding of a New York cousin. Across town, Cindy Sheaffer was completing some morning chores before taking her then-5-year-old daughter to kindergarten. More than 50 miles away, Salvatore "Sam" Ross had just turned on the television as American Airlines Flight 11 slammed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center. The tragedy of that day...

I had trouble posting this yesterday. I hope this is better.

Upon request, I have collected links to many of the earliest threads from September 11, 2001 below. I reviewed threads from the very first FR report (http://www.freeRepublic.com/focus/fr/520255/posts)through thread number 520326. Feel free to add other significant threads, including photo archives. Bumping this thread periodically instead of the original threads will also avoid scaring people with the headlines. Bookmark this thread, and bump it from time to time when the nation and the press seems to forget why we need resolve in the face of evil. Forgive some of the early misinformation and broken photo links, and recall the horror and ...

Tourists venturing atop the Empire State Building have been disturbed to see horrible images of Sept. 11 greeting them in the gift shop. Two 9/11 tribute booklets adorn the top of the display stand, where news magazines and entertainment periodicals are stocked. The color pictures on the covers of the booklets show the Twin Towers engulfed in flames. There are terrified people running from the scene, and one shot actually captures the second plane plowing into the South Tower. "It's disturbing," said Alma Sanguinetti, 70, who was visiting from San Francisco.

This was done by a Norwegian photographer who was in New York on assignment Sept 11, 2001. She put this together as a tribute to NYPD and NYFD.

This video should be a DAILY requirement for every Politician: CLICK ON America Attacked - Sunday, October 17, 2004

Go to this link - http://www.gunstuff.com/america-attacked.html and watch the tribute to 9/11 again. If you're not fired up to go out and vote for Bush, this should do it. Watching this makes me very mad, and it keeps the war on terrorism in perspective.

Video with beautiful music memorializing the victims of 9-11. Seems a lot of Americans have forgotten that day...

This link shows my friend's brother's still photos of the WTC as experienced by him.

Rose - of the Pittsburgh morning show "Quinn and Rose in the Morning" has put together a wonderful tribute to 9/11. It includes audio of the events as they happened, interspersed with some wonderful songs and personal comments. Go to www.warroom.com and click on "Show Archives". Then click on the Sept. 10th show. The first hour is talk (which, if you haven't heard Quinn and Rost, you are in for a treat!). The tribute starts in the second hour. I promise you won't regret listening!

Past and Present

On September 11, 2001 our nation was attacked. Like many New Yorkers Steve Golding lost a friend in the World Trace Center attack. He created a flash video that became one of the most watched videos on the internet. I was webmaster for WABC radio host Steve Malzberg at the time and contacted Steve Golding to see if we could run the video from our website. It was the most requested video that we had on the site.It is appropriate that on this anniversary I link to it again so that we can be reminded what this anniversary is...

Here is a site to share with your friends where many peopel have created 9.11 flash or videos on line in memory of the HEROS and the DEAD Ameircans that resulted in thw work of cowards that prey on women, children and HEROS.

I read another thread that predicted the media would refrain from showing footage of the World Trade Centers, the Pentagon, etc, from 9-11, so as not to muster any support for Bush. Whether it gives Bush a bounce or not is not the issue. (Although I wouldn't be disappointed.) The issue is remembering those who were lost, and the families who still miss them... the heroes who went into the towers to rescue others, and never made it out...the heroes in Pennsylvania and the Pentagon. Americans said we would "NEVER FORGET". We even put it on posters and banners and...

With Sep 11th approaching there will be many threads about the attack. This was my favorite 911 tribute. It is large (7 meg) but well worth it. It's hard not to have tears when watching... but we MUST REMEMBER!!!http://attacked911.tripod.com

Do It Again, Lord by Max Lucado We’re still hoping we’ll wake up. We’re still hoping we’ll open a sleepy eye and think, “What a horrible dream.” But we won’t, will we, Father? What we saw was not a dream. Planes did gouge towers. Flames did consume our fortress. People did perish. It was no dream and, dear Father, we are sad. There is a ballet dancer who will no longer dance and a doctor who will no longer heal. A church has lost her priest, a classroom is minus a teacher. Cora ran a food pantry. Paige was...

I'm mostly a lurker but I think we need to be reminded of the reason of why we are where we are in history. I'm sending this web address to everyone I know (you really need a fast connection, though) before they go to the polls. http://attacked911.tripod.com If John Kerry gets in office it will be the beginning of the end, in my opinion.

Documentary made up of home videos that people shot on and after 9/11

Its pretty good.

http://www.neverforgetneveragain.com/ "Never Forget, Never Again" is a video and song dedicated to those who perished on 9/11 and to those who fight to defend our freedom. This video was inspired by their memory and Daryl Worley's song "Have You Forgotten?" This video and website are non-profit and were created to inspire, educate and remind all Americans what we lost on 9/11 and why we fight today. God Bless America. http://www.neverforgetneveragain.com/

August 30, 2004 -- One of the most moving tributes to the victims of Sept. 11 has never been seen in public — a 30-foot flag emblazoned with images of the victims. But until Mindy Kombert can find someone to take the Stars and Stripes off her hands and put it on public display, she will continue to have the most patriotic tablecloth in Westchester County. After the 9/11 attacks, Kombert and her graphic-design business partner, Sherry Kronenfeld, decided to pay tribute to the victims by creating a "Flag of Remembrance." They transferred photographs of the victims into tones of...

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Republicans open their national convention Monday with a tribute to victims of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks and a salute to President Bush by two of the party's best known moderates, former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani and Arizona Sen. John McCain. "He has been tested and has risen to the most important challenge of our time, and I salute him," McCain said of Bush in prepared excerpts of his speech released by the campaign. Republicans start the convention in an upbeat mood after a flurry of new polls showed Bush gaining ground and slightly leading...
