10th Anniversary!
 
I find it hard to believe,that the 10th anniversary,of the bombing,of the
World Trade Center went by & nobody mentioned it.I guess that the 16?
people died for nothing!I don't imagine that thier familys & loved ones,
thought so! Irish

i certainly don't think they died for nothing but wasn't that in feb. of '93?

wyndhy 04-22-2005 03:34 PM

it just occured to me that you must have meant the oklahoma city bombing. i remembered i watched a history channel program about it just the other day.

There have been threads here and it's been all over my news. Remember Clinton and Chenney went there for a memorial??????????

If it was't on FOX change the channel.

Well it certainly wasnt the WTC...not 10 yrs yet

But whatever it was....still a complete waste of life...a tragedy for sure no matter how many died!!

.....In 1993 terrorists drove a truck packed with 1,100 lbs of explosives into the basement parking garage at the World Trade Center. Despite the size of the blast—it left a crater 22 ft wide and five stories deep—only six people were killed and 1,000 injured. The towers were repaired, cleaned, and reopened in less than a month......

Stop listening to Rush Limbaugh. His microphone is in the back of his pants.

You mean the Alfred P. Murrah building.
Oh we remembered it here alright. It was plastered all over the newspapers.
Like we wouldn't remember. :rolleyes2
On top of that, it happened on my oldest brothers birthday. I'll NEVER forget that one.

Wanna hear somethin even spookier?

IT was the OKC bombings 10 anniversary,Clinton and Chenney were here and a few others.They had 168 seconds of silence (1 second for each one that died that day 152 adults and 16 children) at 9:02 am,It was pretty much standing room only for the memoral service.

A horrible tragedy never to be forgotten!

Irish 04-22-2005 05:37 PM

wasn't sure of the #.That's what I get for rushing.I guess-"Haste makes waste" is true. Irish
