I also HEARD from the mayor's announcement that there is a VAN parked outside city hall which is suspicious.
van packed with chemical furtilizers and some high explosive to set it off is very bad news to every building :(

We're at war. We just need to know which direction to aim our weapons.

im on the west coast, i didnt even go to bed 4 hours ago, this is to fucked up to consider sleeping, though. wish there was something i could do to help

refried, i am not sure if i ever had respect for you before, but i know i don't have any now. i was woken up today by a call from my mom, crying her eyes out at work because she could not get in contact with my brother or her future daughter whom work in Manhatten. recently i have recieved emails from my brother, but we still can't get in touch with my brother's fiance :(
please, even if you don't agree with religion.. pray for the people who don't even know if their friends/family are alive.

Holy sheep shit*infinity.

DEFCON 5 Normal peacetime readiness
DEFCON 4 Normal, increased intelligence and strengthened security measures
DEFCON 3 Increase in force readiness above normal readiness
DEFCON 2 Further Increase in force readiness, but less than maximum readiness
DEFCON 1 Maximum force readiness.

holy crap, my gf saw the 2nd plane crash into the building from the ferry, thank god it didnt leave staten island.

but with who is what im wondering....

Was UA flight 93 from Newark to SF crashed in Pennsylvania.

DEFCON
defense condition. Refers to the condition of readiness of America forces. It operates on a scale of 1 to 5. DEFCON-5 is peace time operations. DEFCON-1 is an all out shooting war. DEFCON-2 is a very high state of readiness. Nuclear missile keys are in the locks, planes are in constant sorties, and ground forces are equipped with live ammo. The last time America reached DEFCON-2 was during the Cuban Missile Crisis.

first "confirmed" death counts coming in :(

I don't even want to know

that's still amazing, each world trade tower was 100+ stories. that's incredibly huge, so much important information that goes through there, does anyone have an idea how it will effect our economy?

2500 people died at pearl harbor. a true tragedy...


more than 10 times as many people may already be dead.

One thing terroists do not realize is that everytime someone has made it personal (ie; Pearl Harbor) America gets even. When you bring it to our door step we bring living hell to theirs. We have returned a thousand times the horror that is visited upon us. They may start it but we do finish it.

If they wanted to completely unite America against them, their cause, their people and their country they have found the perfect way to do it.

This is just the beginning.

Our world has changed today and things are going to get very, very ugly.

Someone is going to get obliterated and the people responsable had better be running because there will not be a hole deep enough to hide. Any country that is involved has better be prepared for war because that is exactly what they have declared upon America.

two american airline's planes which it wtc had 156 passangers on them.

I hope payback will be hell

Anything, anyone associated with Bin Laden is in for big trouble.

The trade center has been known to hold 50,000 people during peak times of the day.

Yes but how many were alive when it hit? If YOU were on a plane getting highjacked and planned to do what it did, would YOU sit idlely by? Maybe thats what happened on the 2 United Arlines flights.

Fuck, I hope my cousin is alright. He lives in manhattan and goes by the WTC on his way to classes. This fucking sucks!
