Hard to believe it's been 5yrs.

I know we have talked about it before, but that day changed all of our lifes for good. No longer can we take our safety for granted. No longer can we assume we are untouchable.

All bullshit politics aside we must stand together has a nation and fight this enemy on our terms not theirs!

I'm not a Rush Limbaugh craptalk fan, BUT he made a good point. How do you negotiate and deal peacefully with a group who says their goal is to kill us. Do we ask them nicely to wait 10 years and give us some time before they blow us up? These people only understand one thing. That is that they are to destroy us. It wouldn't matter if we sat back and didn't "interfere" or if we just outright blew them off the face of the plante. They will ALWAYS hate us. There's no way around it. I for one am not willing to sit and wait for them to come for me. I like living a little more than they like dying, so I plan on helping with that cause. Fuck them all. Every single nation that sits there and says "here, you can stay in our country and run your operations against America. We won't tell." Maybe it sounds harsh, but the truth is that while we fight them over there, they are both distracted from their operations over here as well as losing their leadership over there. There are some people here who say that we are killing innocent people over there, and we are. There's no denying it. The major difference is that we cringe when someone we feel shouldn't die dies while every time a child or non combatant dies here they rejoice. Till the good people over there want to stand up for what is right and fight these people on their own then we have no choice but to stand up for ourself and destroy the wrong doers. The Iraqi army and police force is growing, BUT it still needs our help. It's a shame that Afghanistan has been overlooked, and I fear that our lack luster performance there will hurt us in the long run. No matter what happens though, this is the best damn country on the planet bar none. No European country, no East Asian country, NOTHING is better or ever will be better than the US. I pray to God that our leadership keep their strength and continue to stand for what is right despite what others may say. That takes committment which is far more than we can say for most other candidates that have been President in the past.

So where were you when you first heard about the trade centers?

I was at work, saw it online, then went back to the Judge's chambers and watched the 2nd plane hit it on TV.
Then we were under lockdown for a while. (allowed me to get caught up on work).
 
Just pulled in to work and heard it on drew and mike. ran in to turn the tv on, and just sat in disbelief.. RIP to everyone that was involved in that terrible incident!
 
i was sitting at breakfast with my work crew..getting ready to start a days work. I was watching the TV..and nobody else around me was. I saw the plane hit..and i said outloud "omg..is that real?" Everyone in the place turned and looked at the tv. I will never forget that day :(
 
I was sitting in Math class...I seen my teacher start crying the we had a "LOCK DOWN" she turned on the tv and WOW...i though i had seen it all. I was so pissed i was starting to cry my self. And with having family friends at firemen and cops....it really hit home to me...

I was late for work<what's new>. I was ironing a shirt. I heard Charles Gibson say a plane just hit the WTC. I thought how the fuck did that happen? Then the second plane hit.

Drove to work as fast as I could. When I got there everyone was in the customer waiting room watching the TV. I didn't leave there until the towers fell. I cried when the fell.

I then called my family to make sure everyone was safe.
 
The number 11 has been linked to mystery and power since ancient times. All forms of number research and
study, including Numerology, the ancient science of Gematria, and the secret wisdom of Kabbalah, all give
significant importance to 11, and 11 derivatives - 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88, and 99.

The number 11 is considered a master number.

The first Great War, World War 1, ended on the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month. To this day,
victims and veterans are remembered at that specific time. In Tolkein's The Lord of the Rings, the number 11
is described as a curious number, and reaching your 111th birthday is an event. The USA skipped sequence
numbers on the Apollo moon missions to ensure it was Apollo 11 that landed on the moon. In ancient Egypt
King Tutankhamen's tomb had combinations of 11 in the jewelry he wore, and he had 11 oars placed on the
floor surrounding his tomb. The number 11, and particularly the number 33, have significance to Freemasons,
and other secretive groups.

In addition, there have been thousands of people worldwide who have recently expressed a strong feeling
towards 11. This has been widely reported for the last 5-10 years, and is now commonly referred to as
the 11:11 experience, referring to the time of 11:11.

The overwhelming quantity of elevens, surfacing from the events, people, and places related to the 9-11-2001
attacks, is remarkable. It is as if someone planned the events to occur around the number eleven. If it was
not planned, then the coincidence of the numbers, seems even more mysterious and improbable.

We have also found an 11-year cycle in Osama bin Laden's life. The life changing events occur every 11
years, when bin Laden is 11, 22, 33, and 44.

We have uncovered several patterns of elevens that have occurred before, during
The first plane to hit the towers was American Airlines Flight 11.
The Flight 11 call letters were AA11: A=1, A=1, AA=11.
Four of the hijackers on flight AA11 have the initials A. A. for their names: AA=11.
The fifth AA11 hijacker was the pilot, Mohamed Atta, 11 letters, and AA in last name.
Flight AA11 had 92 people on board - 9 + 2 = 11.
Flight AA11 had 11 crew members - 2 pilots and 9 flight attendants.
The target of Flight AA11 was in New York City -11 letters.
The State of New York was the 11th State added to the Union.
Manhattan Island was discovered on Sept. 11, 1609 by Henry Hudson -11 letters.
Trade Center is 11 letters, and Skyscrapers is 11 letters.
World Trade Center Towers is 22 letters - 2 x 11 =22.
The WTC Twin Towers - standing side by side, look like the number 11.
The WTC Towers are each 110-storeys high.
The first WTC tower hit (North Tower) collapses at 10:28 A.M. -1+2+8=11.
The 1st Fire Unit to arrive to the WTC towers was FDNY Unit 1. Unit 1 lost 11 firemen.
The WTC towers collapsed to a height of 11 stories.
After 99 days of burning, NYC declares the WTC fires are extinguished - 9 x 11 = 99.
The World Trade Center fires burn continuously for 99 days, between September 11, 2001 and
December 19, 2001. The World Trade Center fire is the longest burning commercial fire in U.S. history.
On September 7, 2002, NYC Medical Examiners announced the revised official
death toll from the World Trade Center attacks was 2,801 - (2+8+0+1 = 11).
On the morning of September 11, 2002 the names of 2,801 victims were read at a Ground Zero
Ceremony. It took 2 ½ hours to read all the names.
 
The plane that hit the Pentagon was United Airlines Flight 77 -11 x 7 =77.
Flight 77 - 65 on board - 6 + 5 = 11.
The target of Flight 77 was The Pentagon - 11 Letters.
One of the walls of The Pentagon collapses at 10:10 A.M.
 
According to the FBI, earlier terrorists originally planned to hijack 11 planes.
Thirty days after the attack, the FBI releases a Most Wanted Terrorist List with 22 names.
Mohammed, the prophet of the Muslim faith, died in 632 A.D. - 6+3+2=11.
The Taliban's Manual of Afghan Jihad (Holy War) is 11 volumes.
119 is the area code to Iraq/Iran - 1 + 1 + 9 = 11.
The League of Arab States is comprised of 22 Arab nations - 2 x 11 = 22.
The suspected base of the terrorists is Afghanistan - 11 Letters.
Osama bin Laden's birthplace is Saudi Arabia - 11 letters.
Ramzi Yousef - convicted of orchestrating the 1993 WTC attack - 11 Letters.
The Prime Minister of Israel - Ariel Sharon - 11 Letters.
Deputy PM, & Minister of Foreign Affairs for Israel - Shimon Peres - 11 Letters.
 
You can get any number out of anything if you sit there wasting your time doing it.

numbers blah blah
On 9-11 I was waken up by a call from my roommate saying the WTC got hit. I got up and turned on the tv just in time to see the second plane. I yelled to my gf at the time "we are being attacked!" She replied (half asleep) with "By bees?"

What a lousy day that was, i felt like it was not real.
