For the same reason we all do.

So we dont forget.

I don't think any of us, atleast in our generations, will ever forget that horrible day. It is like someone during the JFK assinaion days, you ask them and 40 years later they'll tell you exactly where, what and how they were doing it. Myself, I will never forget, my oldest brother who lived not too far from the city went there in the aftermath to help clean up. He was there for 2 weeks working and then was sent home. A few months later he died as a result of the work he did, something in the air attacked his lungs and he died. There was never any concrete proof of this but from what the coroner said, who was a family friend, that was the only thing he could tell it would be and he seen others with the same type of death. Most were healthy beforehand and then afterwards they got sick.

What was done was done for needs of the times. These types of colaborations have gone on every since two cavemen got together to ambush a third caveman and then one of the two smashed the other with a rock.

We can no more hide in a hole then we can completely eliminate all of those who want to do us harm. We must continue to play lifes games and hope that our plans are a little better then the other guys.

We are definitely making mistakes. There is no way to be at war without making mistakes. But overall, we are on the right track and will come out on top if we are allowed to continue to fight the enemy on their turf.

We basically started all this crap years ago by funding terrorists such as Al Queda and the Taliban in an effort to get at the Russians who were in Afhgannistan.
We wanted the rich oil and gas supplies and intended on building a gas line through Afhghanny. We hoped the Taliban would be a stable force in the region for us. In time, we saw they were not going to be and things changed. Likewise Bin Ladin hated Saddam and during the gulf war wanted to help the Saudis with his newly formed army, when the Saudis chose us instead, he went nuts. Well, more nuts than he already was.
We will only stop terrorism by protecting our borders better and changing our policies toward some of these places, it's the only way.

If we capture everyone who's dangerous, and take care of all of the worlds big problems (terrorists) we'd be in big trouble.

Then the gov wouldn't have reasons to spend billions and billions of dollars making our military bigger. I hate to sound like one of them freaks who thinks the gov is out to get them, but I think the gov knows exactly where Bin boy is at. They also know a ton more about a lot of other things they deny too.

I still have a sneaking suspicion that we may know where Bin Laden is and are just waiting for an oportune political moment to drag his butt out in the open.

The first President Bush never wanted Saddam to be captured because that was the original agreement the U.S. had with Saudi Arabia in order to use their land to lead our Kuwaiti liberation from.

The deal was made that we did not attempt to topple the Iraqi government. No matter what the first President Bush may have felt, going after Saddam was not an issue until after Saddam bucked up against the United Nations for 12 years.

Bin Laden was never the important target anyway. George Bush SR wanted Sadam removed the first time and it didnt happen , so when george bush jr took office , along with his fathers entorage , his goal was to do what his father was unable to do

When the towers were attacked , that gave him the reason and the support along with all of the other lame excuses to go in and destroy Saddam

sure we knocked out the terrorist camps in afganastan but we seem to have given up on Bin laden for some reason

I just spent the past three hours doing just that and my anger is renewed with a vengence. We need to stay hurt and angry until every last bastard that supports those who attacked us are no longer able to ever do us harm again.

The fact that we have not been able to destroy Bin Laden does not bother me that much. It may even be nice to save him for last.

well it made myself and my brother in law both cry
i sent it to everyone i know so im sure there will be a lot of tears

It's not a video.

Too bad, I will try to find another one. It was a little girl talking to her dad who was killed on 911 with a song in the back ground.

WOW.

The link doesn't work. Says it exceeded the bandwith.

I caught a show on the History Channel today about 9-11. They've been showing different ones all day.

Got back home today after being in Athens and found this in my e-mail.
