Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I go to a boarding school and I never really watch t.v during the day I?m usually out with my friends but on September 11th I had an argument with one of my friends and was in a strop so I went to the kitchen in my block and turned on t.v....... as I was flicking through the channels I turned cnn on watched as images were displayed...... it took me about 10 minutes to actually register in my head what had happened I saw pictures of planes crashing and buildings crumbling to the ground and dust every where and the image that even today the sticks in my mind is that of all the dead bodies lying on the ground...... I couldn't understand what could make anybody want to do such a thing....... to kill so many innocent people..... I called my parents and my dad kind of explained to me what had happened and why it happened..... then all of a sudden a man called Bin Laden was the most wanted man in the world because he was responsible for these attacks...... I went to school the next day and was surprised at the reaction that I got from my friends...... I live in a Muslim country and many of my close friends are Muslim and one when I told her how I was feeling to all that had happened she said `do you know how many Muslims get killed everyday by American troops? those people on those planes got what they deserved' then they started telling me how all the Americans torture them and what they did the families..... I just got up and walked away and all I could say was `but was it bad enough to kill all those innocent people??..... I apologized to my friend who I was annoyed with and we both realized that are argument was pathetic compared to ones that were going on in the world........
