Attacks on America Reviews

The horrific events that have taken place in US are beyond belief. They are a prime example of man's inhumanity to man. News headline blurt out 'Attack on America' and put this on a par with Pearl Harbour and the bombing of london, or Dresden, during the second world war. The big difference is that this wasn't an attack by ...  Read the complete review

Sitting in a hotel conference room at about 4.00 Tuesday evening our tutor walks back in and says in a solemn voice – “Guys, there’s been a newsflash – 2 planes have crashed into the World Trade Buildings in New York killing almost 50,000 people”. What? How? We thought it wasn’t true – there was no ...  Read the complete review

Tuesday, September 11. A date every American will remember for years to come. The day that the tallest buildings in New York were gone within two hours. The day the terrorists struck America. In just 99 minutes, both the north and south towers which form the World Trade Centre collapsed to just rubble. The towers might as well have been ...  Read the complete review

Everyone in the whole world apart from some mindless, brain-washed people in the Middle East condemns what happened on the 11th Sept 2001. The memories of the disaster in both New York and Washington will linger in my mind forever. When I watched the tv reports of the planes flying into the World Trade Centers, all I could think of was ...  Read the complete review

When I popped upstairs Neighbours was on the TV, when I came down a few minutes later a horror movie was being played on daytime TV. I had no idea what was going on, I thought maybe one of the kids had turned the TV over, then the awful realisation dawned. I saw the the 2 world trade towers burning, I was truly shaken at the thought ...  Read the complete review

Since Tuesday I have been glued to the TV watching with horror and still shocked at what happened. The effects has been profound so much so that when I woke up this morning I had been dreaming about it. The dream was long winded but all of a sudden I was in a plane, I can’t remember much but I was quite shaken. I just lay in bed for an hour ...  Read the complete review

America are going to find out who their real friends and allies are over the next few weeks. At the moment lots of obscure old adversaries and buddies are talking strong political support for the US.But as the press and media coverage that drives the event fades, then that support will drip away. Blair’s speech today avoided the Bush ...  Read the complete review

The immense scale of this incident stunned me, even though living in the UK, I am far away from the US. The use of passenger planes, containing hundreds of innocent people, as a weapon, is a completely despicable act. By hitting the second tower of the World Trade Centre 20 minutes or so after the first, the terrorists ensured maximum media ...  Read the complete review

It seems wrong to me that people should write opinions on a terrorist action and gain from it. So I would suggest to DooYoo that all miles (cash) gained from writing and having an opinion rated, after 12 noon BST on Tuesday the 11th September 2001, should be set aside into a central fund for the benefit of the victims of the tragedy. The total sum ...  Read the complete review

Not so long ago I strolled the streets of Manhattan, taking in the sights of Times Square, Broadway, Liberty and of course the twin towers of the Workd Trade Centre. Now, after the most despicable act of terrorism in history they no longer stand, taken down in 99 minutes by two suicide jets. I also visited Washington, and saw the ...  Read the complete review

No one will ever forget the events of September 11th 2001. Roosevelt’s words of a “date that will live in infamy” may have described the worst atrocity on American soil in the last century, but his words still resonate after this week’s events. Those who have declared that the world will never quite be the same do so with ...  Read the complete review

Didn’t George W Bush say something to this effect yesterday, or was it perhaps just someone’s journalistic interpretation of a statement? Either way, I truly believe that this notion should stand after this week’s terrible events. I know I am not going to be terribly popular with this opinion, but hey, free speech and all that. ...  Read the complete review

Like other major events in history, like the shooting of JFK, or the shooting of John Lennon, everyone will remember where they were and what they were doing when they first heard of what happened in the USA. I was in work, when a customer in America called me - at the time he thought that a bomb had gone off. I reacted with disbelief. ...  Read the complete review

Retaliation. A terrible thing has happened in New York. Life has suddenly turned into a disaster movie, although if it was a movie I don?t think that anyone would have believed it. It makes Die Hard look like gritty realism. I would firstly like to send my sympathy to all those who have been affected by what has happened in ...  Read the complete review

I am writing this after having possibly the worst three night’s sleep I’ve had in a long time. On Tuesday afternoon I sat and watched in horror at the events unfolding in the US. At times I felt like what I was watching wasn’t real, and it took some time for the reality to sink in. As the first of the towers fell I felt ...  Read the complete review

Firstly, having just observed the three minute silence, one cannot help but reflect further on this terrible event. No one can disagree that what has happened represents a blatant disregard for human life, is utterly atrocious and cannot, in any way, be justified. I need not continue this description. In this op, I aim to briefly discuss ...  Read the complete review

How can this happen? What kind of monsters, what devils, could do such a thing? How could anyone do this? Those are the haunting questions in so many minds after an event such as the tragedy that unfolded in America. Allow me to share two short 'tales' with you that are important - please bear with me. Sue wept as she ...  Read the complete review

Im going to jump in here with my own opinion on this dreadful subject. One which I do not think should have been added but there you go. With the terrible events that have happend just 2 days ago and the rescue and salvage attempts happening as I write, I am simply shocked that anyone in the world can perform such sickening and ...  Read the complete review

I was walking past a colleague’s desk when I noticed he was clicking through a map of New York. What you doing? I enquired. Checking for whereabouts of girlfriend’s hotel. No further conversation seemed to be forthcoming so I strolled on to find out why so many people were crowded around the next desk. Its occupant had managed to ...  Read the complete review

I don't have any direct connection with anyone involved in this terrible mass murder. Words cannot be expressed how I feel thousands of miles away in a tiny village in West Yorkshire. What I would like to pass on to you is account of our family that night. At about 12am I was on the net as usual and I heard my five year old ...  Read the complete review
