How 9/11 Was Displayed In Non-American Countries. This Is Eye-Opening.

http://www.tickld.com/x/sp/how-9/11-was-displayed-in-non-american-countries


This article consists of comments made by citizens of other countries regarding their first learning of the towers being hit and how the people reacted. Of course, we know there were some countries who didn't react like these people, but I doubt many were surprised.

A group applauding that America was hit. I don't remember which country it was but an older woman was happy. I am sure everyone remembers that. When AGAIN, we find out the truth that most countries were horrified by what happened. Of course our media had to focus on the negative.

I remember reading comments from various countries after the hit. People were so touched by the horror and supportive of our people. Oh, I'm sure there were those who applauded the horrid event, but I think that human nature leans heavily toward the good against evil.
