It may be on the news by this evening, Moni. It was over a local broadcast that I heard it. The sad thing is, similar things may be happening in other locales as well. I know that NY Mayor Giuliani was urging people to not seek vigilante retaliation against members of the arabic or middle eastern races. It's sad that it has to be said.

Sadly it's an all to common reaction. When an animal is wounded it will often strike out blindly at the nearest identifyable target ( just ask a vet ).
I just pray that the American people do not sink to this level in their hurt and pain. When their response comes, it must be proportionate, targeted and backed by hard evidence and the weight of International Law. ------------------ Regards Mouse [This message has been edited by Mouse (edited 09-12-2001).] |

i think its sad that these people cant work together. we're all Amercian citizens in the states, we have to pull together! and for those who arent citizens as of yet, please join us! but in the meantime, support us too!

Melding with the Planet, I will cease to exist as I am now. Only to be reborn as a 'God' to rule over every living soul.

This really pisses me off!
What a bunch of idiots the people who attacked that mosque must be! I'm burning up at the thought of how utterly stupid those people must be! |

It probably will be. I had heard on national news coverage about Arabic communities in NYC fearing attacks from U.S. citizens but as of yet, no one is going after anyone in any violent manner...the city seems to be pretty united in helping one another through every process of getting through it. That is uplifting and I can only hope that sentiment spreads across the nation the same way donating blood did yesterday. ------------------ You know childhood is over when a puddle seems like an obstacle instead of an opportunity.

That's disgusting. Everybody needs to remain open minded about this. That type of behavior will get us nowhere.

VERY insightful, Deadman. One's enemies only win when one sinks to their level. That's when they've defeated you from the inside.

Just an update: There have now been three Mosques attacked in the North Texas area, believed to be in retaliation for the attack on the WTC and the Pentagon. Here's an article on the latest updates:
http://www.msnbc.com/local/kxas/NBCS5R45JRC.asp Gads, it's monstrous. I wish they would just stop this madness! P.S. Just to let you know, the latest Mosque to be attacked (a small bomb) was here in Denton, my home. Sick, sick, sick. It hasn't made the Internet news yet, but I saw that on the TV this evening. ------------------ [This message has been edited by Sazerac (edited 09-13-2001).] |
