  3. 9/11 is a bad day for USA people. I hate the terrorist, because they destroy peace. Also It's bad for us, For example, When I was fly back to china, we do a strict safety check before we board the aircraft. But in china we just need do a normal safety check. So terrorist give us a lot of problem.

  4. 9.11 is a horrible day for America people. I was shocked when I saw the picture recording on TV.
    I love a peaceful and equal world. Because so many
    innocent person died in this terrorist attacks, terrorism must be punished. What we should do now is to pray for the victims,to complete our studies and then heal the world.

  6. That was a fearful day! When I heard that 9 years ago, I was so scared about the terrorism. I was afraid that someday the terrorism would attack China. But now, I am not worried about it. And I hope that the whole world can keep peace in the future. [I just can login the web, so I didn't do the first journal. And please add my QQ949261386.Or www.renren.com/babeyun1016.]

  8. On account of terrorists' action, how many people lost their lives.
    I can't remember when I was 6 years old, what I thought at that moment.
    I must felt scared and unfair.
    Why these innocent people should bear such heavy pain.
    I hate fight and violence since then.Every time when I have right to wish. I will expect we can live in a peace world forever.
    We should remember that day. The most important things is learning something from that day.

  9. It was a bad and terrible day. On that day , the World Trade Center was destroyed, that day ,I was only a six-year-old kid ,and I did’t recognize how awful it was .
    But now ,when I review these things I feel really sad ,many people were killed .And my mom told me that many people were crying in the TV, my families were crying too .Terrorists broke the peace of the world, that is why many people hate them , I hope there will not be a single terrorist one day.

  10. As I remember, it happened when I was 8 years old.I don't know why the terrorists do this. Did they really don't know what they did will destroy many families? Many children will lost their parents,many parents will lost their son or daughter,many couples will their lovers.And the most important thing is they don't know what they did will make the world full of fire and people will live with a unpeaceful life(maybe they know and that's their purpose).But after 9/11,many people pay more attention with their families.They are scared to lost their families.To protect their citizen,many countries put more money and sources to promote their military abilities.
    However,what i hope it no fire anymore!!

  12. 11/9/2001. It was the sad day for all American. I have known about it when I was young. Many people die in some hours.Economy is affected a lot. I remember the title of a newspaper: " Today we're American" to support and mobilize American. Now, 9/11/2010, it's the 9th anniversary of the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, a lot of people still have sadness about that day...

  14. Thousands of lives were suddenly ended by evil, despicable acts of terror.The pictures of airplanes flying into buildings, fires burning, huge structures collapsing, have filled us with disbelief, terrible sadness and a quiet, unyielding anger.

  15. What a scared day, 11/9/2001. I even can't imagine that when I was 8 years old, many people are killed by an accident. I don't know how big that thing is when I was 8. But know, I'm totally understand. The terrorists not only destroyed a build, but also destroyed many families, many couples, old, and young. Why these people need to die? They've done nothing. The war is between government and terrorists. I hope our normal people can be safe.

  16. I was a six-year-old girl when this terrible event happen. The only way I could learn about it is from the television. When I was watching the news,lots of people were crying in front of the ruins. This moment last forever in my memory.
    I have heard a story about 11/9/2001. A man called Edward who was working in the World Trade Center. The reporter got the news that he had have a call before he died. It is a calling to his mother. All of the people were curious about the conversation in his last calling. Maybe is the password of credit card? Or the important documents? They find his mother and asked about it. His mother said:"He just said mam I love you."
    Disaster always let us think more about our life. What is the most important? Maybe different people have different answer. But what I get from this story is:Never forget to show your love to the people you love.

  17. I liked reading your comments, everyone. There is no question that 9-11-01 changed the USA - and the world - in many ways, big and small. Some of you mention the added security measures at airports and other places, for instance. More important, I think, is the change in attitude since 2001: in general, people are more fearful, less trusting - I guess this is the terrorists' goal. As international students, you all represent an effort to counteract fear and distrust; you show that we can overcome the terrorists' goal of provoking hatred between people. We can reach out and understand one another.

  19. 9.11It was very sad day, but maybe someone was happy about that happen. When I heard that happen,I was thinking about why they attack the World Trade Center and I don't believe only one aircraft can destroy the entire World Trade Center. I can't believe that. After 6 months, I went to online. I checked some informations about that happen. When I saw this information to prove that my guess was right.

  20. 9.11is an important day for all of American remember. The World Trade Center was broken by terrorists. It's frustrating memory in American heart. But some of the people think this is a premeditated action from the government. Because they want to find a reason to fight Iraq. The crude oil is an important income for American. If that analysis is true. That means the government is not give service for most people. The Financial Empire control the government. That is.

  22. I will always remember this day because my aunt worked in the twin towers and was in the building at the moment of the attack.
    She got out of the building and lived.
    Every day she thanks God for surviving and having her life.
    We did not know for two days if she survived.
    It was a very terrible day I will never forget.
