Terror Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION

Terrorism in this world is made all the more succesful due to a vast majority of ignorant savages.

As soon as the name Osama bin Laden came up, people thoughout my school were saying "fxcking arabs". This was all people could talk about. Not even considering any other possibilities.

This kind of behaviour is what the terrorists aim for. They want us to be full of hate and anger towards each other, thus making their job easier.

A week had not even passed and already I hear stories of Middle-Eastern children being bullied at school. Victims of stone throwing swine. A tram driver who kicked Arabian passengers of because of their race.

Stories such as this hurt me to the very core. Not because I am of Arab descent. But because this evil is a hundred times worse than any act of terrorism can ever be.

But please, don't get me wrong. I don't condone the killings. 11000+ dead is no laughing matter. I have a very personal connection to this whole crisis in that my brother in law was present at the Pentagon bonbing. He was delivering a speech to Pentagon officials as the plane fell.

He was one of the lucky, however, and made it out alive.

The ignorance of stupid people will never cease to amaze me and it makes me wonder how terror like this is not an every day occurence.

Initially, they were predicting 10,000 dead on CNN and associated news networks.



Terrorist Attack on U.S.A

Terrorism is wrong. It's not our fault that Osman Bin Laden bombed the twin towers. Look at U.S.A they still can't find him. People should be focusing on him not on each other. They definatly should not me bulling other middle east people. I myself is am not from the middle east. But people shouldn't be held responsible for what the taliban did. We should try to work together and try find the taliban. Letting them get to us just gives more power to them. But hey hear me out, U.S.A bombed many countries and the rest of never helped them. Just because U.S.A is rich country doesn't mean they need all attenition. But that doesn't mean the Taliban should go and bomb an important place in a nation.
