Great tribute to a devastating incident that will not only change the lives of Americans but will also change
the lives of many abroad...
and they know who they are!
For in our eyes they are the infidels,
and I it is 'Policy',
which means we get to kick all the
militant-islamic-ass
that we can get our hands on!
Well somebody's got to check them
before we get checkmated.

A historian said once said of Pearl Harbor "God help us if we ever forget" The same could be said of 9/11. Here's hoping that we don't and that soon we regain the international support which poured out so freely after that dark day.
P.S. Thanks for your kinds words about my work, "Faces of the inferno".

Hi Robert,
Just a simple answer to your question, I think the virus was brought to Ireland, it was called potato blight.
The terrorist blight arrived in the form of the IRA,
Who in the last thirty years slaughtered thousands of innocent people?
I do not support Irish killers any more than I support American ones, whether they carry a bible or not.
My family suffered as much as any family so I don�t need any lectures on religious hypocrisy.
All the best.

We can begin healing by imagining us spreading rose petals all over this earth..Visualize handing every soul a basket of rose petals or sprinkling them all over the mother earth..

Shaw, would you have brought that virus to Ireland when family killed family and friend betrayed friend? just a rhetorical question...

Shaw is right, Karla. You can't find terrorism with more terrorism. It's a vicious cycle. Love is the only way. Christ's message was quite clear:

"Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you" --Matthew 5:43-44

Hi Karla,
I don�t think that half of America understands why 9/11 happened in first place.
Just imagine this scenario, that you are peaceful Iraqi living your life in difficult circumstances.
Then some one decides to invade your country, and in doing so the kills your wife, your children, all your relatives.
So what has that invasion created?
I will tell you what it has created a new breed of terrorist, who will use any means at his disposal to revenge his family.
And will poison the water supplies, blow up the nuclear reactors, the list is endless
If that happened to my family, I would go straight to Africa, and get my hands on much Ebola virus as I could, and go straight America with it.
I wonder if Eileen Waldron would find that funny.
She just created a new terrorist.
Give that some thought.

I don't think anyone has forgotten. That's why we went after Saddam. And this is why Russia didn't want us there. http://www.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,30200-1087280,00.html

Karla,
I remember the shock I had to go thru when I saw the first replay of that morning. This is truly one reason why we went to war.
There is a saying that goes like this "Those then forget history tend to repeat it". I, for one, do not hope we have to go thru it again.
((((((HUGS))))) To you Karla for a fantastic writing.
