Everyone
I know is reeling from the news. If you have been living under a
rock, 4 commercial jetliners were hijacked and forced to crash in
kamikaze suicide. 2 planes crashed into the two World Trade Center
buildings, totally demolishing them. Another plane crashed into
the Pentagon, and yet another crashed in Pennsylvania. Rumor has
it the plane was shot down by an F-16 as to divert it from crashing
unto the USX building.
People
were jumping out of windows while the World Trade Center was collapsing.
Someone used his cell phone and called 911 right before the plane
he was on crashed.
This
is the worst terrorist attack on American soil, and many people
are calling it an act of war. Up
to 50,000 people could be dead, and our hearts are with the American
people right now. The
saddest thing is probably that this is only the beginning of something
much, much larger.
Update:
Building 7 of the WTO complex HAS collapsed, and so has building
5. There is so much debris that rescue workers cannot get to the
survivors. Reports are coming in that the government knew 30-45
minutes before the planes crashed that they were hijacked.
Update:
Explosions
have detonated in Kabul, Afghanistan. US spokesperson said it was
not part of a US strike but was part of civil fighting in Afghanistan.
