I was thinking about this all week actually. Was very surprised there wasn't a mention of the 9/11 anniversary this week. I don't find it good or bad, just interesting...

There was some posts about it, but not on a specific thread.

Yes, I admit, not many people mentioned it to me either. I almost went all day without someone saying what happened, though the person that did mention it was in America on that date.
I found it strange because every year before that it was a bigger issue (moment of silence etc)

I will admit myself, I remember the day so clearly and really thought there would never be a day that would go by that I didn't think about it. But, like everyone else it seems, we have moved on...

Same in Britain for 7/7?

I haven't completely forgot it. I still think about it now and then. Just as you said, I remember it so clearly but just trying not to dwell in the past too much.
Both of the events I mean.

It was certainly remembered in all UK media. However... I am glad some of the attention has died down from the frenzy of previous years. Some of the coverage bordered on a curious sinister voyeurism rather than a respectful memorial.

In addition, the action taken as a result of 9/11 and the thousands of equally innocent people who have been killed since in the name of "revenge", has tainted the way people feel.

as for 7/7, none of my british friends mentioned it this year. brits are tough guys, they dont waste tears on such unimportant days.

but the thousands of people that were crushed to death, or the people onboard as they saw the towers coming. Its still so surreal!

This is what I mean Keith! People (all of us) were grotesquely fascinated by it. We have to admit it. It was horrifying, vile, but compelling. How many of us were glued to our TVs for the whole day? How many of us wondered what it was like to have been in those buildings? Its human nature, but I don't think it's a good "memorial" to see those images again.

I agree with you. I have many family members who worked in and around the NYC area. One of my cousins was trampled very badly by people running away from the blast. I never thought I would get over it and in many ways I am more angry about the response to the attack than the actual attack. It will never bring back any of the people who died on that day. It just makes it harder to move on knowing that the people who died that day where not it's only/last victims.

i am still so sorry for those people in New York and London. it was one of the most horrible things i have ever seen .i just want to ask two questions.i am asking as a turkish wants to know what is happening there.. not to cause any arguement..

does if 9/11 or 7/7 reminds brits and americans of what kind of life people in iraq have everyday? or

does 9/11 or 7/7 make people there hate eastern more and more eachday and make them agree with what their governments do in iraq?



I can't speak for all Americans, and I certainly can't speak for the British people, but I have never hated anyone. I don't agree with the way my government has dealt with the acts that occured on 9/11. When I see images of Iraq, I feel sad and horrible for what is happening. They live the hell of 9/11 almost daily...and for that I am so sorry and somewhat ashamed. I do love my country but don't always agree with the politicians. I pray that wisdom will prevail in the next election and we can restore some sanity to the world.

The truth is, people dont hate the "east" because of 9/11 or 7/7. However, unfortunately, people are starting to dislike "eastern" immigrants in the UK because of their refusal to integrate with us and their view that we are "evil".

This feeling, if it gets out of control, could easily turn to facism and nationalism...

I think it is very easy to feel like we are hated here in the West. 9/11 and 7/7 happened to us...so I think it is obvious why we feel that way. We are hated in our own countries by people who come here to escape their country because of horrible conditions. Really, I am trying to understand, how can you not see why we feel this way?

Most people here lately hate only USA..not western and its culture..turkish used to like US before Iraq were..but as you can guess we have a common history with Iraq so you cannot expect people here to think good things about US until they go back to america. this is human nature..it is not about being western or eastern.it would be the same if any war like that happened in Canada ( for example)

I choose to remember the good that happened on that day.......

The main vision that sticks in my head to this day is how people banded together to do what they could to help....it was plain to see in Manhattan where volunteers risked their own lives going into those buildings….with many of them never coming back out.

But it wasn’t just in Manhattan, it was all over America, people were taking action doing other things. I work at a blood bank and I will never, ever forget the thousands of people lined up around our building that day, waiting hours and hours and hours to donate a pint of blood..…for them, that was the one thing they thought they could do to help. We did not close our doors all night. It was incredible.

To me, that is the true tribute to that day and a true testament of the good in people. At work, every year on 9/11, we have a moment of silence and every year, we have a larger than usual turn out of blood donors honoring those that were lost on 9/11 and those who are lost in other events around the world every day.

It is easy to forget the good things that the USA does in the world. It is funny how the evil deeds of a few years can erase so much good. We are not evil people and to say that people hate the US is just a bunch of crap...they still come her in droves from everywhere in the world and are quite happy to take our money!!

It is very narrow minded of you to hate the USA for the actions of an unpopular government! Disliking a government is one thing but lumping us all into one big pot and saying you hate us??? That's just ridiculous. How is it possible to hate an entire country and hate people you don't know?

OK, here is my OPINION:

Forget East and west, to me they are only directions on a compass. You keep mention G.W. Bush but what about Osama bin laden? Bush is't just to blame here. Don't get me wrong I don't like the guy much either, but stop blaming one person for this chaos. Twin towers were hit, America got Saddam, he was executed, half of muslims not liking what happened to him, half of them happy, they made forces against one another making bombs etc (not just with one another)
USA in Iraq doesn't help matters I know but if anyone should take blame for this it's both sides. Whether we like it or not it's that way.
I'm not speak for EVERY person in England or Iraq or any other country but the west have been racist at points but again it doesn't help when some muslims do not like to "socialize" with westerns.
So again, BOTH SIDES!

Most people here lately hate only USA..not western and its culture..turkish used to like US before Iraq were..but as you can guess we have a common history with Iraq so you cannot expect people here to think good things about US until they go back to america. this is human nature..it is not about being western or eastern.it would be the same if any war like that happened in Canada ( for example)



It is very narrow minded of you to hate the USA for the actions of an unpopular government! Disliking a government is one thing but lumping us all into one big pot and saying you hate us??? That's just ridiculous. How is it possible to hate an entire country and hate people you don't know?


+1000 I have always asked to myself what do people mean by saying "hate USA"? what is in their minds as definition of USA? the Country itself? its President? its governmemet? or its people? coz most American's dont agree with Bush government so why many people from other countries hate 'Americans'? I feel this is not fair, hating or incriminating 'all' for the decisions made by only 'a few'

i didnt know you were so sensitive about this..you showed me how open you are to be criticize..i am repeating!!!! people here hate George W Bush's goverment..is it so diffcult to understand it?



Hell no it's not difficult to understand...I live with it! But you broadly stated you hate the USA...not just the government. And you spoke for most Turks. Funny how many Turkish boys want to come to the US!



then i am correcting..we hate Bush..not USA. and be sure most Turkish boys do not die to live in your BEAUTIFUL country.



peace

I was thinking about this all week actually. Was very surprised there wasn't a mention of the 9/11 anniversary this week. I don't find it good or bad, just interesting...



What date did 9/11 happen then lol

OK, here is my OPINION:

Forget East and west, to me they are only directions on a compass. You keep mention G.W. Bush but what about Osama bin laden? Bush is't just to blame here. Don't get me wrong I don't like the guy much either, but stop blaming one person for this chaos. Twin towers were hit, America got Saddam, he was executed, half of muslims not liking what happened to him, half of them happy, they made forces against one another making bombs etc (not just with one another)
USA in Iraq doesn't help matters I know but if anyone should take blame for this it's both sides. Whether we like it or not it's that way.
I'm not speak for EVERY person in England or Iraq or any other country but the west have been racist at points but again it doesn't help when some muslims do not like to "socialize" with westerns.
So again, BOTH SIDES!
