Today, so far, the Pentagon and the World Trade Center in the United States have been attacked by what appears to be commandeered airplanes.

It is a shame that innocent people have been killed and injured.

World capitalism is under attack by the people of the world.
The United States of America needs to stop supporting Zionists, needs to stop walking out of conferences, needs to stop destroying the ecology of the planet, needs to stop exploiting working people around the world.

Working people and other oppressed people of the world do not have standing armies and spaced based weapons so the forces of the people will fight back by any means necessary.

It?s a sad day for the injured and the families of those killed and injured. World capitalism and the Bush administration are to blame.

One more thing I think Bush really needs to concentrate on the missile defense system?.That will take care of those scum.

It was\r\nonly a matter of time before the building would once again\r\nbe a target of a terrorist attack (as it had in 1993). It\r\nis somewhat naive to be surprised by this. As for the\r\nPentagon . . . nothing more need be said.\r\n\r\nToday one of the national news outlets showed a clip of\r\npeople in Palestine celebrating the vulnerability of the US\r\nby waving their arms in the air and flashing victory signs.\r\n I fear that this sentiment will be terribly mis-understood\r\nby the casual observer deeply shocked by the tragedy and\r\nmanipulated by those maudlin attitudes of the newscasters. \r\nI keep thinking of this: what had happened to these people\r\nthat they would loose their humanity in dancing on the\r\ngraves of thousands of innocent people? I don't blame them\r\nyou understand, I have no enmity toward their feelings, I\r\nam only disturbed that they have been brought to embrace\r\nsuch feelings in the first place. We must ask ask\r\nourselves how have we come this far?\r\n\r\nBut the corporate news is focusing on other questions\r\nclearly. I hear that this is an 'attack against the US' as\r\nif it is the equivalent of the Japanese attack on Pearl\r\nHarbor (one station repeated this ad nauseum). Was it as\r\nbad as killing all those civilians at Hiroshima? Nagasaki?\r\n And what about the killing of the first Americans? \r\nDoesn't that constitute a domestic terrorist act of far\r\nmore damaging proportions? As usual true terrorism is seen\r\nas only that which happens to us. Listen to how it is\r\ncharacterized as 'cowardly' and how retribution is the\r\ntheme of the day. Is that the worst thing you can say\r\nabout someone is that they are cowardly? Are we supposed\r\nto dig out the corpses of the hijackers from the rubble at\r\nthe WTC and kill them again? Revenge takes precedence over\r\njustice once again. Will this nation ever learn justice?\r\n\r\nJust a thought. Let's try to not get caught up in the\r\n'spectacle' of reporting re:today's events. Already I hear\r\nnational security advisors quick to circle the wagons. The\r\nborder to first Mexico and now Canada has been closed? \r\nUndoubtedly the fear of terrorism will be used as\r\njustification for the suspension of many of our civil\r\nliberties. Dissent, hardly tolerated in the first place\r\nhere in the US, will now be found as downright\r\nun-patriotic. Mark my words: in a state obsessed with\r\nterrorism the first casualty is always freedom.\r\n\r\n","author":"\/\/","parent_id":9959,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2001-09-12 16:08:45","modified":"2001-09-12 16:35:14","fileurl":""},{"id":9972,"heading":"military acting up","article":"here in oxnard, california \r\nsouthern beach side, the Sea Bees and the Air FOrce are already getting ready for defense \/ offense?\r\n\r\nThere is a large Navy base and also an Air Force base lovcated in Oxnard; and already they are shut down where no one may enter or leave base. \r\n\r\nMany of the residents of the county work for the ARMY or some other type of large scale defense sector. \r\n\r\nCommunity Colleges remain open with the exception of some proffesors who have cancelled classes.\r\n\r\nThe impact of the events do not seem to yet take effect on the students.
