As the sad tragedy unfolds in London, many people on here are making a heartfelt plea to be human for at least a day while the people of London try and take stock of their lives, safety and their country.
However, because of 9/11 we no longer live in a world of peaceful reflection. Why? You ask? Simple answer, george w. bush*. I have never in my life seen a person delight in the pain and suffering of others. More over, at every opportunity, he will march out 9/11 for his own political gain or to use it as a tactic in his own propaganda war.
So needless to say, will he make some sort of reference to 9/11 today, more than likely. Will he use this opportunity to promote fear, undoubtedly yes.
So for all of you here on this board who have become cynical in the face of tragedy (myself included), we are now a product of the moron* fear machine.
And most importantly, on a final note: My heart goes out to our friends, the British, on such a sad day. May peace smooth your brow and grief be lifted from your hearts.
