A Call To Reason. by BlurOfSerenity2001-09-11 13:15:24

Hear hear!
After reading the rest of the board, your post was the one that actually made me want to react.
You describe just the thing I am afraid about, and what has happened before: "total recall" on anything or anyone "not american". Of course I'm not afraid any of you ufies will do this (although I read some frightening posts, but I'll regard them as "early anger")

But, I AM worried a bit about a friend of mine... He's an Iranian refugee, with a dutch passport for some ten years now. He's not a muslim (in fact atheist, just like I am) and in Pittsburg right now, he was due to come home on Saturday but I don't think this will be possible now. Moreover what I am afraid of is that some "nationalistic" americans will loosen their anger on him, just because he "looks like a muslim".

And I have some more black thoughts...

  • The stockmarkets response in the rest of the world: the rush on gold, silver and stuff and the oilprice raise, cannot be good for american economy, and if that fails every economy linked to it will fail also ... wich more or less is the rest of the world.
  • How much people will get lungcancer from breathing asbetos? (the WCT being build in the 70's will have had plenty of that stuff, now spread over greater manhattan) And how many will be collecting claims from their insurance, thus heightening the fee.
  • Remember communism? Get used to:"Muslims, the new/next threat of freedom" (indoctrined by the government that is)
  • And the one question I think nobody can answer: Those people on the planes, were they killed beforehand, or did they saw their deaths smashing into the WTC? Or was the plane filled with "enthousiasts" willing to die for the cause?
  • America will -has- put a curtain around it's borders..... how long will it last? Also 40+ years?
  • I am afraid, very afraid, someone please tell me doomsday will not come, please?
