I believe that in light of the recent events, and in honor of those who gave their lives in the defense, protection, and in the service of their fellow countrymen, this picture of the American flag is perhaps the most poignant of this series. Please never forget what happened September 11th, 2001, so that we can work to prevent it from ever happening again.
The World weeps tears of bloody, Many children are confused and scared, We should all pull together in help a flood, We will survive - We will carry on The terrorists wil be snared....
This flag symbolizes that we still stand strong in the mist of all this tragedy. It is an emblem of freedom and pride, that these so called terrorists can not take away from us. The American Flag proves that we will fly high and unite as one as a nation. We will prevail and hold up even stronger than ever. My prayers go out to those who have loved and lost someone on this one day we call September 11, 2001.

I'm an Australian and I belive that what happend in New York was the worst disaster in the history of the world. As allied neighbours I hope both our contries can rid the world of terrorist. BRING US THE HEAD OF BIN LADEN
I think what happened in new york is traggic and shocking news for everybody. But as for some people their relatives have died and maybe their mums and dads.so everybody keep a memory of new york in your hearts.
I feel very sorry for all the familys who had to go through this tragdy. And my heart will be with you all. We thought that are cousin was in there but he had left eariler to run an earn. I hope that you all will son feel better. My the lord be with you.
I was at school the day that september 11 had happend when I got home my mom was crying and had said that my uncle might be shipped away( he is a sargent in the military) at school that day my friends mom had picked her up early because she was afrid of something happening to her daughter. Anyway I just wanted to tell the people who are suffering with loved ones that died in the tradgity that I am sorry that they had to die when they had such a long life ahead of them. Again I am sorry. Sincerly, Tiffany Hollihan
I don't understand what was so bad about September 11th. More people died during Vietnam and we pissed on those soldiers when they came back home. So what is everybody being so "patriotic" for now?
looking at the twin towers and hao they fell is a terrible sight and whoever saw those twin towers fall i know tha it was a terrible sight and i pray for those people and there families

I think 9-11 was a horrible tradgity and that we should all do something nice for each other and pray for the victims who lost their lives on 9-11. some kids I know lost their father on 9-11 and they spent a month away from school in Ney York. they were really sad and I am to for everyone who lost their life on 9-11.

What happened on September 11, 2001 really opened my eyes to the kind of people that live in this world. Luckily,the people that live in the United States Has a way to forgive, and forget, but unfortunatly we haven't forgot and we don't plan to forgive until we have forgotten!!!!
All i hope is that justise to come.....and God is the one who sees everything, every lil thing.....so the ones who desurve are goin to be punished, the ones that been victims goin to be gifted.....lets pray for better days...we need security, we need freedom
and not even this picture that made me think, but the nyc03 picture, where is image of a one single bird in the skies.....it symbolizes freedom, that we dont have......no! we dont have it, because we cant live free without an idea that one day some of us goin to die that tragic death by a hand of a non human person that walks on this planet.....
what happened on September 11th really made me think how cruel some people really are. But how so many people worked together in this devastating time made me know some people do care. What happens in the world is in our hands so lets not stuff it up.

What happened on September 11th was a tragedy and I genuinely feel for the people who lost family and friends in the attacks. However, Americans must take a step back and ask themselves why this happened. 1)
Their foreign policy? 2)Their president? They may be the richest country in the world but they must except that different countries have different cultures, religions and practices to their own. All muslims are not fanatics and the islamic faith cannot be blamed for these events.
Nearly three thousand people died on September 11th 2001 and there was worldwide shock and condemnation of the attrocities. But what about the people of Iraq, it is estimated that around 16-20,000 people have been killed or injured yet there is no memorial to them. This smacks of double standards. These are innocent people, do they deserve less respect in death than Americans? I fear not! Would you have attacked them if their country did not possess huge oil reserves?
You want to stamp out terrorism, and rightly so. Why not start by adressing the Palestinian/Israeli conflict where terrorist acts are committed by both sides. Objectivity is hard when you pour millions of dollars into Israel.
Wake up America. Look outside you borders. You are not the only country in the world. People who live in the middle east may have diiferent cultures, religions and practices to your own. That does not make them inferior to you. Learn to respect other nations and try to educate your country that america is a part of the world, not the world. ' Treat as you would be treated '.
