That quote about eradicating injustices not terrorism rang true...it's what I've been saying for the last eight months.

interesting....although it would have been nice to see something other than the states in there (yes i kjnow there was a bit of other stuff but really why? the rest was american).

Well, it did show the images of the Palestininan man who was shot dead trying to protect his young son from IDF firing.

Gee two pictures...then they talk about american courage. what the hell? i mean the concept of this thing is nice and its pretty funky but the focus on the us, like everything horrible that has happened in the world like this was against the US in the WTC. please....shit like this has been going on for ages in so many different parts of the world. Nice but still very lacking.

Its clearly aimed at "american" public, and you know how the "american" public is.................

At least maybe it gets the message across, even if its not the best possible message.

Very thought provoking. :(

We must get past the idea of nations and see that it destroys human beings as a whole world.

I don't know..... :( It happened on American soil, but as we know many people of different nationaities died on 9/11. If this presentation can change even just a few minds who were pro-Bush/pro-war nationalists than it can only help to have a US slant. Sometimes things have to be subjectevely felt for the impact to be of any value.

I don't know though, I wonder too why so many people need such a huge wake up call.
