I wish one day people would stop thinking in politics and start thinking in terms of human beings.
I'm so fed up of people saying "yeah, well, of cause this was ++++, but the states also did this and that and whatever..." sure they did, but hell, who cares?
this is not about some childish "mom, he poked me in the eye, so I hit his nose"-stuff. This is not what should count and not how people should see these things.
people should think about 3200+ innocent people, who started their day, just as we all do every morning. They got up in the morning, brushed their teeth, dressed up, kissed their family good bye, went to work and never returned home, because they became target of an act of violence. All those people were not supposed to die, not for any "reason"!
I lost my uncle and my aunt there - they moved from Austria (which is the place where I also live) to NY in July '01 and on September 10th my aunt called and told us that she's pregnant. They were surely not meant to die and I'm sick of people trying to explain, that "it's bad from a personal point, but... *blah*" - just imagine the following scenario:
a friend of you is murdered - you post here, expressing, how bad you feel and I reply "oh sorry man, that's bad from a personal point for sure, but well - you must see he had his bad sides - when he was 14 he beat up that guy from his class and hell - he was from the UK - do'nt you remember, that the british crown invaded Africa and killed so many people - gosh - your friend probably deserved to die..."
I still mourn and I still think of what a great life & family my aunt & uncle could have had.
I pray for all those who were left behind, missing a part of their life and those who fell victim to this senseless and cruel act of terror.
