We Will Never Forget
I saw this on YouTube, and it really moved me. The music is by Enya.

Warning: There is an image of * in this. That made me ANGRY. To think that such a small man would allow such a thing to happen. Whether he's responsible for it, or was negligent in doing his duty to protect us, HE IS RESPONSIBLE. That responsibility comes with the office he so very much wanted to occupy.

In addition to the image of * mentioned above, there are other images that might be disturbing to some.

2. Many Americans have forgotten already
Many Americans have already forgotten.

SOME 30 per cent of Americans cannot say in what year the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks against New York's World Trade Centre and the Pentagon in Washington took place, according to a poll published in the Washington Post newspaper.

While the country is preparing to commemorate the fifth anniversary of the attacks that claimed nearly 3000 lives and shocked the world, 95 per cent of Americans questioned in the poll were able to remember the month and the date of the attacks.

But when asked what year, 30 per cent could not give a correct answer.

Of that group, six per cent gave an earlier year, eight per cent gave a later year, and 16 per cent admitted they had no idea whatsoever.

This memory black hole is essentially the problem of the older crowd - 48 per cent of those who did not know were between the ages of 55 and 64, and 47 per cent were older than 65, the poll shows.

The Post telephone survey was carried out July 21-24 among 1002 randomly selected adults. The margin of error is plus or minus three percentage points.

It should, of course, say "SOME 30 per cent of Americans polled."
