World Trade Center Survivor stories

I've been reading some of these, not only out of interest in the real story, but just as a piece of history that seems to be fading away already. What the people in the towers who died went through must have been horrible enough, but even the people who escaped went through unimaginable horror. To date the Bush admin has misdirected the call for justice by making the whole muslim world to be our enemies, and failed to apprehend the purported instigator, Osama bin Laden.

There has been no justice and people do not even seem to call for it any more. Justice delayed is justice denied. Revenge misdirected is utterly foolhardy.

1. It seems that many of those who seem to have forgotten

Still use the terror of that day for their own purposes.

Any idea of how many American Muslims died? I remember having to put the smack down on a few employees who were behaving badly toward a few Muslims at our company. It sickens me to think how stupid and shallow people can be.

Thanks for the link... I may have to talk myself into reading this. I feel my shoulders and neck stiffening up just thinking about it.

2. These people were in the unique position of being at the WTC Marriott

which was mostly evacuated sometime between the planes hitting and the towers falling. 22 people lost.
