description: That morning I was as unaware as the rest of the world before the hijacked planes dropped out of a clear blue sky and hit their targets, the north tower first, then the south tower. In Washington, D.C., they flew across the Potomac and hit the Pentagon. The fourth plane was believed to be headed for the White House. Instead, Todd Bingham and a group of passengers overthrew the hijackers and the plane crashed into the Pennsylvania countryside.Through the dark days we would watch and mourn the dead, pray for the wounded, and go after the terrorists in Afghanistan. We would hear the ancient battle cry that sounded after the sinking of the Maine, the Lusitania, and the ships docked at Pearl Harbor. Many of us could do nothing more than watch the events unfold. We are told to forgive as preached in our churches, but for many forgiveness was a long time coming. Forgiveness is not as easy to do as we are taught, and in many cases forgiveness is never sought, asked for, or even given. I thought about my own ground zero as it happened on May 15, 1997, and during the first weeks of September 2003 I had a dream, and the book was conceived. This is the story of the D.C. Crier.
