In light of the recent events taking place in the World today, I would like to share a few thoughts with you. First of all, I want to express my hearfelt sorrow to everyone regarding the World Trade Center Bombings and the airline crash in Pennsylvania. These tragic events should never have taken place. Thousands of people have become victims because of the extreme actions of a few individuals. I agree with our President and my Boss, that we need to hunt down and bring to justice each and everyone who has played a part in the hideous act of violence! I feel that I have some understanding of the tragedy that is taking place in some of the Third World countries today. After spending time in Bosnia and Herzegovinia, I came to the realization that we as Americans try to help as many as our fellow neighbors in this Global Community as we can. We don't ask for anything in return. Our joy comes in the faces of children who still have families to take care of them. Of people who can live together peacefully and work out there differences without resorting to violence. Men and Women who can walk the streets together without fear or reprisal because of Ethic or Religous differences. I saw first hand how Bosnians and Croatians treated each other during their civil war. Take for example a small neighbor city block with maybe 10 houses on each side of the street. Then picture every fourth house, riddled with bullet holes, blackened by mortar shells and then razed by molotav cocktails for good measure, when next door, someone else's home was not touched Those are but one example of the innocent victims that have been terrorized by extremists. There are iindividuals who have taken their cause to the extreme and lashed out at innocent by-standers, people who don't care what the extremists goals are, and just want to live in peace. This is happening all over the world as we speak. And now, it has come to our door-step. WHY? I can't answer that question, nor will I even attempt to. I just know that we all enjoy the Freedom to express ourselves however we desire. We can practice our religions, go were we wish, vote for who we want and are afforded the oppurtunity to become whoever we want to be. We as Americans have extended this oppurtunity the anyone who wants. Does this give someone the right to destroy homes, families, innocent lives? Please remember that we as humans are all equal and not everyone should be punished for the actions of a few. Remember the all the people who died in this tragedy in your prayers, The People in Buildings, The Innocent Bystanders, The Police Officers and Firemen. Remember the Army, the Airforce, The Navy, The Marines and the Coast Guard for these are the Men and Women who protect our Great Nation everyday. Remeber to cherish your family every wakeing minute of every day. GOD BLESS AMERICA! (The comments reflected above are my own and do not reflect on anyone else or any organization)
