U.S. Institutions attacked with commandeered aircraft. The rest of the world has responded to escalating U.S. arrogance, racism and fascism. If only they could have confined the targets to military installations.
It has finally happened. The U.S. has been attacked by what can only be assumed are parties fed up with the U.S. and its patently FASCIST foreign and economic policies. The worst part of this is that hundreds or as many as thousands of innocents were killed. And there's a lot more to come if the U.S. does not IMMEDIATELY clean up its act!!! IT MUST STOP-1. Ramming capitalism down the world's throat 2. Carrying on and otherwise supporting WHITE SUPREMACIST POLICIES such as 'MANIFEST DESTINY', ZIONISM, etc.3. Playing God and IMPOSING its cultural HEGEMONY on the rest of the world. If the U.S. is TRULLY about Democracy, then as they say, "Show us the money!". Stop PRACTICING FASCISM!!!

As corporate media shrilly decries the cowardly terrorist attacks on innocent Americans, I have to think that whoever initiated these attacks hit what, if the US were doing it would be called command and control targets.
If you are against US capitalism the World Trade Center would be a legitimate target.
If you were against US Imperialism the Pentagon and the US State Department would be legitimate targets.
The people of the world are fed up with the US and have struck back.
The collateral damage is regrettable. (paraphrase of statements of BushI during US attacks on Iraq)

I am disgusted at being part of a movement that supports the deaths of thousands. How can your heart melt for children in other countries but not the US? Are children not created equal? Are humans not equal? Is that what we are fighting for? So get the h__l out of my movement if you're going to support terrorism or death, because whatever you may think of Bush or America, those innocent people who died today were just as tragic as any labour person, or Carlo Guiliani, or a child digging through garbage. All life is precious, and damn anyone for claiming to love life and justice and then going on to celebrate the death of thousands. You disgust me, and you should disgust yourselves.
So disappointing...

You are one sick person to praise the deaths of innocent. What kind of person gloats at the deaths of thousands of innocent people? To bad you weren't on the plane with the innocent.

September 11 is the anniversary of the Camp David accords. The Peace treaty between Israel and Egypt. The workers and others paid for this phony peace. The U.S. hosted that event which tied the U.S. even more to the middle east and by check book diplomacy to Israel. If the U.S Criminal leaders had kept its nose out of the middle eastern feud thousands of Americans that are dead would still be alive. Intervention and international policing to protect transnational corporations, banking and Jew intrigue are the causes -- disaster is the effect. Death to the Zionists & Jews!! Facist would have nothing to to with the Jews if we had a say in it. Johnny 88

disappointed: Our Movement is for Democracy. Join up withe Gestapo Military in the US, disappointed and you will soon be dying in building-to-building combat in any US city.
We in the Movement are willing to shed our lives to save this Planet's ecology and sustainable human habitation free of Nazi control.

If nazis controlled this country this kind of thing would never happen. These scum of the earth would know our retaliation would be swift and brutal. This world be a better and safer place to live without this kind of trash getting into our country. This is what happens when we do business with Israel. More to come I am sure. Johnny

Check out the Nazi linkage in the family lineage and business of the Herbert Walkers.
We already live in a Police State.

This gloating over destruction is disgusting.
I hope you little fuck ups are young and have an underdeveloped empathy, because thousands have died, freedom will be curtailed, and we might be headed into a protracted terrorist war.
Two wrongs don't make a right.

Let's see:
We got boo-boo heads crying over the loss of innocent lives (a legitimate sentiment) but then ready to bend over for Bush (indirectly the real cause of this atrocity)....
We got a Nazi that needs to shut up and go back to Orange County and the shack where his inbred ignorance will be appreciated...
How many narcs and pigs are logged onto the IMC at this moment. Will the real progressives please speak up, and the boneheads shut the f%%k up! You already got all the corporate media supporting your numbness so let us reasonable people enjoy the medium that we have (the IMC) which allows us to speak clearly..
thank you,

Please be aware that all your emotions are being manipulated at this moment. Your eagerness to respond to one another in less than well thought out ways indicates all the more that we need to keep a level head about us. Otherwise the perpetrators of these events, as well as the corporate media and government institutions will have a field day.
I haven?t actually read that any of the above posts applaud the killing of people (except for perhaps our token, and lone, nazi who likes to blame everything on an international Jewish conspiracy ? please dear people, do not honor him with a response - He doesn?t deserve your acknowledgement).
In fact the overwhelming posts on not just this site, but all the progressive sites on the web, in my view, seem to echo the sentiment that these actions are indeed regrettable, horrible even, but at the same time somewhat expected. The WTC was a target in 1993, it serves the world around as a monument to corporate (read anti-democratic) violence. If I suggest that it would be naïve for us to ignore it?s symbolic value the world around does that mean I applaud it?s destruction? Of course not. I am simply pointing out that such an attack was inevitable, if not today, then tomorrow. Until we began to ask why some believe this had to happen our analysis will always fall short.
You see there is a progressive perspective out there and if you contrast it to the drivel that streams out of the corporate media outlets I think you will see it very clearly. Progressives have a better understanding of the world conditions that make such acts inevitable (which I repeat is NOT THE SAME thing as applauding the act). Progressives are the first to question if our collective hysteria surrounding the fear of terrorism might lead to further erosion of our civil liberties. Progressives are the first to call into question the ?retribution? reaction, the insane need to strike back even though our eager willingness to dispense our military might around the world pretty seriously erodes any support we may have think we earned. We may be the first to acknowledge that the events of today were both horrible and inevitable.
There is clearly a progressive perspective. Let?s keep our heads clear and avoid media manipulation.
A great many people were killed today. Some would like to qualify that those killed were ?innocent? and undeserving of death. Does the posing of this statement imply that other people around the globe are more appropriate victims of terrorism? I find it most insulting to be accused of crying more for the loss of civilians of Baghdad, East Timor, Hiroshima, or a Palestinian village raided by Israeli armed forces. Why do we automatically jump to the conclusion that American deaths are more tragic then the deaths that go on all over the world every day? Isn?t this just as absurd as applauding acts of terrorism?
If you want to be angry at a response to today's events I suggest you listen to the empty rhetoric of our commander in chief. Now there is a perspective that is not progressive.

i agree that this incident indeed is "what goes around comes around," as I beleive in Karma, since no one would, without compelling reasons (at least to him/her) to hijack a plane,crash it, killing everyone including him/herself. This is viscius and crazy cycles of vengeance, jsut like we see in the case of pearl harbor.
Not that I am cold-blooded but I try to maintain being skeptic about the media coverage, which is often a giant propaganda system. let's find out more truth, through maybe independent medias
