It was named USS New York, and its main purpose is to carry troops and special forces to areas of conflict around the world.

A fitting tribute I think.



With so much scrap steel available after the event, it's a pity they didn't construct a large cage in which to put Bush, Blair and the rest of the evil bastards responsible for the engineered events of 9/11.


Let us also remember this day to commemorate the unaccountable number of innocent victims who were slaughtered subsequent to it.

Let us also remember the thousands of killed and wounded young men who were ordered to do the bidding of of their evil masters.

Let us also remember the thousands of young men now being treated for mental illnesses brought on by their involvement.

Let us also remember the millions of homeless and suffering people who are wandering aimlessly throughout the world as a result of it.

as a final act of contrition, let us 'Sink the Ship' and thus ensure that it cannot be used to inflict more of the same to that nation which is still under seige, regardless of what the 'Pre Election' media are trying to impress upon us all

God Bless every departed and suffering soul as a result of this evil day. :( :( :( :( :(

I understand why this is a sad anniversary for the Americans, but why should we care about it anymore than we care about the many other 1000s of victims of terrorism and state terrorism?


Whilst not wanting to be provocative, it is worth remembering that MANY different nationalities lost their lives in the WTCs, and not just Americans.

That having been said, I respect your views, and your right to voice them.

Piratis, rather than investing energy in placing Hazza's thoughtful intentions into a negative spin, I might suggest that you do as he did. Voice your concern for the Iraqis and Vietnamese on the anniverseries of the invasions to their countries by reminding us to remember them. Wouldn't that be more productive?

Piratis is correct. The death and destruction caused by the US all over the world in the last 70 odd years leaves no room for the comparatively petty 9/11 memorials... you reap what you sow.

Piratis, this isn't about what happened 23 years ago, its what happened 6 years ago today. I was up in Troodos mountains, on holiday. I was looking at the display swords which really fascinated me at the time, when I got that call from my sister, telling me what had happened.

This affected millions all around the world. Its not about race, nationality or creed, but instead, its about what happened to our fellow human beings that were killed on that day.

Please, find it in your heart to respect those that died on that terrible day, respect those mourning for their loved ones that got killed...
