When the World Stopped Turning: A 9/11 tribute

A Tribute of slides and footage to the lives lost September 11 2001.
Music: Where Were You (When the World Stopped Turning) by Alan Jackson.
Sorry for the occasional repetative slide, wasn't paying enough attention I guess.

@KILLINGFORTHRILLS You understand you are killing the wrong people? That these citizens have no connections with al-Qaeda? That many of the people we are murdering have nothing to do with 9-11? Certainly, go after those who attacked us, but we've been terribly misguided and we are killing people that had nothing to do with the attacks on our nation.

@JustATadpole YOUR JUST A COMMUNIST BASTERD, IF YOU HATE AMERICA GO LIVE IN A COUNTRY WHERE THERE IS DISEASES, STARVATION, COMMUNIST, ROADSIDE BOMBS. JUST DONT HATE ON AMERICA! AND AFTER ALL THEY DID TO US WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO KILL CITIZENS OVER THERE AND NOT BE QUESTIONED, THEY KILLED OUR CITIZENS, RUINED OUR BUILDINGS, PUT US IN FEAR. BUT I'LL TELL YOU THIS, THEY SHOULD BE DAMN LUCKY THAT WE DIDN'T DO WORSE, CAUSE WE GOT BOMBS, THEY GOT $50 PLANE TICKETS AND WE HAVE A STRONG NATION, FUCK YEAH!

If you are going to comment on this leave all the negativity involving the wars and soldiers out! Even if we do not agree with what is happening with the wars the VERY LEAST we can do for our soldiers is support them whether they are in a distant country or at train camp up the road. We may not like how things are being handled, but we must always support and respect those who fight for our lives and give us the freedom that we enjoy every day. The news should speak of their bravery and heroics.

it's been 10 years people, it's time to move on. yes it was a sad time and yes many people die from that. but we have to move forward. there's an old saying that "the shadows of the past hold the future hostage" and what that means is that since 911 we have not made much progress as a country. we need to stop looking at things that happened at the past and start looking at the future. cmon america, it's time to move on.

@octavion99 You're telling me Afghani and Iraqi citizens caused 9-11?

[octavion99]

@JustATadpole wow u are nuts.u dont know hat u are saying

[JustATadpole]

@Lightbringerxx1 Except these many citizens dying are caught between US military and enemy forces that had nothing to do with 9-11, and the fact that many soldiers have committed atrocities on citizens. There wouldn't even be the temptation to commit these horrible acts if we weren't wrongfully occupy and fighting people who had no connections to 9-11. al-Qaeda are the attackers, why do you justify our soldiers dying in pointless wars against the wrong enemy?

@Lightbringerxx1 The only reason we left Iraq was because the Iraqi government refused to approve an extension of SOFA which granted complete legal immunities to Iraqi courts for any crimes the US military commits. We refuse to be accountable for our actions in Iraq. As for the Taliban, we are undergoing peace talks with them and we will leave Afghanistan with the Taliban still a strong figure. Why did we participate in that civil war? al-Qaeda attacked us, no on else.
