The change to WP- and the problems. The day II

Posted by hardyberlin on 18th September 2008

Good that I always make a copy of my articles since I’ve heard that friendster will move over to WordPress with the blogs. Today I found out, that they moved, but my last article, the day which changed the world(9/11) wasn’t republished, and also that all the links from the sidebars are missing. So I guess I’ll have to make all of that by myself(in the newsletter they said that they will do it, so it’s bad service).

I still remember the feelings which came over me seven years ago. I was at my favorite restaurant, and just had ordered a beer when I received a message on my cell-phone. First I thought that someone wanted to make a bad joke with me when I read it, but then I read the news via WAP. I couldn’t say a word while the tears where running over my cheeks, and cold hate against the people who did that came up in me.

It was the day which changed the world. About 3000 people died when the Islamic terrorists hijacked the four airplanes and let two of them fly into the twin towers of the World Trade Center one into the Pentagon, and one crashed in a field and exploded. And that only because the passengers where fighting against the hijackers. Otherwise it might have hit the White House or the Capitol. It was a declaration of war against the free world.

Today we are still at war. But we will win it, and the Islamic countries can be happy that I wasn’t president of the USA. Cause my feelings where in that way,  that there wouldn’t be an Islamic state anymore. Kill ‘em all, let’s God sort ‘em out. I guess you know what I mean.

Today, McCain and Obama will take a break. A short moment of silence will descend on the presidential campaign. The two candidates will gather briefly at Ground-Zero to mark the 7th anniversary of the terrorist attacks in 2001. Neither man will speak at the site; they will instead bear witness to the tragedy that killed nearly 3,000 people in New York, Washington and Shanksville, Pa., and left thousands of others wounded.
