No one knows why the Pennsylvania plane crashed where it did as of right now.

According to ABC, the airways over America will not be reopened until tomorrow at noon.
Tony Blair has also suspended all flights over London for fear of anything happening.
If anything was supposed to happen today, expect it to be cancelled/postponed, like sporting events, awards, etc.

My prime minister just said that fourteen of the world leaders are traveling to Sweden as of now. I wonder why they chose us. Is it because of that meeting in Gothenburg before?

To my complete disbelief: To major UEFA soccer games will be played today, although all soccer team leaders and players of the Teams (Germany: Dortmund and Schalke) have said that this is totaly illogical and disrespectful.

What gets me is the huge plummes of smoke still pouring out of where the Towers used to be...
I want to see the first shots of the area after the smoke clears...

Nope. Don't think anyone has any pictures or videos of the Pentagon crash either.

But it wouldn't surprise me if fakes came out. What are the odds that someone would just happen to record the first attacks.

Well there are numerous tourists that could've videoed it, webcams could've panned over it (we have several in stockholm that are attached to buildings and are panning 24-7). And the odds that I would hear the lyrics "a plane comes crashing down" in a music video while zapping around was virtually nil too. That felt like some sign.

This is the terrorist equivalant of Pearl Harbor.
I cant believe this , I just saw the footage of the World Trade Center , a symbol of American democracy , the center peice of the New York skyline has been brought down to the ground.
Estimates of the death tolls are in the tens of thousands though im sure these are only destined to rise. Tens of Thousands of innocent American citizens were brutaly slaughtered today , by cowardly terrorists who have made the classic mistake of under estimating American resolve.
These nameless terrorists have struck a low blow , they may think we are down but this country will not let this defeat it.
With every attack our nation grows stronger , America will rise up as it has so many times , rise from the ashes , rise from the turmoil a stronger nation with one goal , Justice.
Justice for those slaughtered.
As our President has said today , America will not cease , we will throw the entire might of this nation into bringing those perverted minds behind this act to Justice.
I ask all of you , to go on with your lives tomorrow , do not let this terrible act disrupt your life , do not give these terroists the satisfaction.
My heart goes out to these victems and they're families as they cope with this dasterdly act.
Alot of my Army reserve friends have been contacted , and a few of them have already been activated and is in the process of mobilizing itself for departure to New York.
This is our Pearl Harbor.
We must answer this one the same way we answered the call in 1941 , as one nation determind to bring peace to a hostile world , to rebuild , stronger and better than we were before.
