Remembering 11th day of September 2001

Rating: 8/10 (8 October 2007)

I clearly remember this day and never forget along the time I live. Far away thousands of kilometers from USA, in Turkey, about 5 o'clock with local time, I was watching the news on TV. I couldn't believe my eyes which saw attacks on TV. Shocking attacks to the twin towers and Pentagon caused a panic in USA. This condition is transferred to the cinema very well. Whole departments concerned with these tragic hijackings got them amazed and even the army was shocked and couldn't know what to do. Even today people don't know how such tragic attacks happened and lots of plot theories are expressed all around the world.
The story explaining the last hijacked plane United 93 shows the wild face of the terror. According to the plan that appears afterwards all planes should have crashed at the same time or close times to their targets. But this fact was not possible technically because of the delay time of the planes. This is explained impressively in the film in which United 93 hijackers see that twin towers' last moments and get the crash message when they are in cockpit. People's behaviours describe the inevitable end and in this times you feel like in this plane. Also a man's conversation between his wife was taking part densely in press.
As a member of Islam, only thing I know definitely is that not All Muslims are like those people. Unfortunately the people who govern USA show all Muslims are like terrorists. I condemn the people who realized these disasters and caused the innocent people to die. While watching hair-rising hijacking scenes I was shocked and didn't want to be in United 93. The scenes make you feel as if you live these moments.
In addition to those words, USA considered these tragic facts as war reason and after that the Neareast never had a peace. Afghanistan, Iraq and Lebanon and it is said that Iran is in row now. Shared characteristics of these countries are Islam is mostly believed religion there. It is also said 3000 or 4000 innocent people died during the crashes but several times of these numbers are dying in Iraq after the war had started. In other words 3000 or 4000 people are dying just each month in Iraq and furthermore no mass destruction was found there USA alleged it for war.
To sum on, wherever or whoever terror comes its' name is terror. It can be sometimes realized by the members of an organization as it was 11th day of Sept 2001 or it can be sometimes realized by a state as it was or it is in Iraq.
Not necessary to talk too much about it. Because it explains the real near past. Just watch.
