This is truly a sad day for america. Fox news put one thing in perspective though..
The statue of liberty is still standing and is clearly visible even through the smoke... One small glimmer of hope. |

Some people are just stupid . . . I hate these people.
Surrender is a worse defeat than death.

Oh my God. I hope the people got out. Most of the people on the lower floors undoubtedly made it out, with luck.

The death toll is expected to be in the 10's of thousands, nearly 50,000 in total, including all the aircraft, and those killed from debris.
To put this in perspective, that's about half the number of US soldiers killed in Vietnam. -------------------------------

Well . . . they wouldn't be any safer either way . . . I still haven't even looked at the news report . . . lata.
Oh, and how tall is the WTC again? Surrender is a worse defeat than death.

I just heard that another plane is hijacked and heading towards Washington. Is it a passenger plane? They're gonna have to shoot it down. They got no choice. Either that or let it hit its target.

The pentagon has confirmed that it was a US AIR 747 that crashed into it. |

My girlfriend is in New York. She used to live not more than a few blocks away from where this all happened. I haven't been able to get in contact with her...

I heard that the plane that crashed south of Pittsburgh was the one that was hijacked and heading to Washingon. Have they said anything as to how it went down?
And Quasar, I hope your girlfriend is okay.

God I hope she's ok. I know she wouldn't be in the towers, but from the looks of it, the entire city is in danger, not only from future attacks, but from all the smoke and debris in the air.

The important thing to do is not panic Quasar, There's a good chance that your GF may have been evacuated by police to safety, and is unable to get to a phone or Comp at the moment.
Don't give in to despair, we,re all with ya |
