9/11. The worst attack on America. Ever. The worst attack on America ever even concieved. A day that changed the world. That is not an opinion, that is a fact. The World is a very different world than the one that existed on September 10, 2001. Almost 3000 deaths almost simultaneously... not in an accident, but in a deliberate attack... how can that not be a terrible thing? What followed that terrible day is one of the most controversial subjects ever. Iraq: uneccesary or a vital part of the war on terror? Would America be better if the democrats were in charge? Would the world be better off? Everyone agrees on this though. It doesn't matter if you are Democrat or Republican, liberal or conservative, American or from another country, Christian or Muslim... 9/11 was still a terrible day. 9/11 was still a day that innocent people were killed. It was a day that people died, for no reason. On 9/11 every single American lost something. Some lost more than others. Some lost their lives. All victims are remembered as heroes. America will always remember those who gave their lives for their country. When something terrible like 9/11 happens, you can't move on. It's impossible. It won't go away. It won't be a problem that solves itself. It is something you have to live with. Because even if you could have prevented it before, you can't go back and change it now. It happened. You can't stop that. You can only remember, and respect. This is not my opinion. This is fact. The world has changed. No one is safe. What 9/11 proves is that the ocean that separates America from the troubles overseas, the ocean that kept us safe in almost all our previous wars, can't keep us safe anymore. we are not immune. We have been attacked. And we will likely be attacked again, if we don't learn from our previous mistakes. -Pierce (loc) 9/11/06
