Good points Truth. We're the biggest hipocrits there is. We kill others and don't bat a eye yet we want sympathy when it's us.

Hmm….The truth is, I often wonder how the Iraqi people (survivors) must feel? about the FACT that at least 100,000 INNOCENT Iraqis lay in their graves today, victims of OUR Unprovoked attack against them following the 9/11 attacks.I wonder (ALL innocent lives being EQUAL), would Americans be as UNderstanding if the Iraqis decided to mark the start-date of that UNHOLY tragedy in memory of their dead and wounded? The day that the President of the United States and his VP unleashehd "Shock-and-Awe" upon the men, women and children of that nation (March 19, 2003). A nation that did absolutely NOTHING to Us.I'm always mindful that the terrorists attacked Us on the MORNING of Sept. 11, 2001.However, for NO justifiable reason at all, WE attacked Iraq from March 19, 2003 to May 1, 2003. And um…I believe we're STILL at "War" over there to some degree.

It's too soon to move on. The fact somebody said it feels like yesterday means something. Too many people died that day. We need to honor them as long as possible.

Co-sign with BD.Not only do I agree with the points DJ noted, I actually thought of those very same points just the other day. America has dealt with Our share of tragedies. But we mourned and moved on.Personally, I think the media has done more to EXPLOIT that sorrowful day than aything else, the past 10 yrs. It's neither a "good" thing nor healthy. Moreover, I believe the exploitation of 9/11 diminishes Us as a nation in the eyes of the world. It's time to move forward.

You presented some interesting thougths here DJ. Never thought about it that way. Now that its been ten years maybe they can mark the 20, 25, 30, 50 year anniversary. Your right the healing must begin.
