Remembering 9/11

Today is 9/11 again. My heart goes to the families of the 2,977 victims of that day, AS WELL AS the families of victims of the other equally bad, if not worse, atrocity that mankind can commit -- the unnecessary Iraq War, in which 100,000 innocent civilians (source http://IraqBodyCount.org/) -- together with 4,736 US soldiers -- were killed, for no good reasons.

What is worse then terrorism? It is the indifference towards terrorism! More specifically, it is the attitude of seeing and condemning only the atrocity from "the other side" but not the atrocity from "our side". It is the attitudes of "Oh you know all politicians are like this", "Well but there is oil over there", "What can I do? History is full of these"...

Stand up, People! Prosecute the murderers and stop the atrocities from happening again!
