I know many of you are from all parts of the world here, but I was wondering if you could takes 4 minutes out of your day to watch a sweet tribute to those who were affected by that day 11 years ago.

To those who died without saying goodbye to their loved ones, to their own family...
To those who died fighting for the lives of helpless and trapped citizens...
To those who never go to say goodbye to their mom or dad, brother or sister, daughter or son, husband or wife...

These next two videos are long, but for those who have never heard, this will touch your heart:

To those still wishing they had just picked up their phone earlier that day, and never knew until it was too late...

I was there . . . . On my couch . . . watching the events unfold that Day and I felt like it was happending 10 miles away.


For sure the most devastating event to ever be broadcast live to the World.

Don't really remember it because I would have been 5. But do feel sorry for everyone who lost family members.

I was sitting in history class watching it on t.v. At first no one knew if it was an accident or what was going on until we seen the second plane crash. Heart goes out to all affected

I was in College when this happened, a couple of weeks later I shipped off to Paris Island. This is how I pay my tribute!

2 years after in 03 I was in the initial breach of Fallujah, Iraq and the payback started..MERICA! Justice is still being served.....

Good thought Dreno. I don't think anyone affected will ever forget. As with any great tragedy you remember exactly where you were at that point in time.

I would have been on Pennsylvania Ave downtown Washington, DC right between the Capital and White House. But I was on vacation in Myrtle Beach, SC at the time but knew many who were there and saw events unfold in DC. I was literally on the beach when things went down and watched the 2nd plane hit once I had gone back to my hotel room after the news. It was upsetting and I couldn't sit there like others watching. I decided to take another walk back out on the beach when a total stranger walked up to me and asked. "Did you hear? Another plane just hit the Pentagon!!!" Closer to home for me then, I had friends and family who live and work in DC, let alone I would have been in a potential target zone if had not been on vacation. Luckily no one I directly knew was killed or injured , just massive problems of trying to get out of the city when things closed.

My heart goes out to all those who lost loved ones.

If I had a dollar for every time I saw a post like this I'd be rich. But I've yet to see a US citizen pay rememberance to the hundreds of thousands of people that died in the Indonesian/Japanese Tsunami or the Haitiain earthquake.... propaganda at its finest.

With the upmost respect and I mean no malice to the citizens of the US but YOUR governments foreign policies are to blame for 911.
