This is the end of the world
This is the end of the world

- I doubt that US officials will keep a cool head. This means war on Terrorism. The escalation of the conflict is inevitable. Bush is the wrong person to deal with the situation somberly.
- Will we ever again live in this world without fear?
- I just cancelled my flight to Amsterdam for tomorrow. I am simply too afraid of what might happen in the wake of this catastrophe.
- It is not going to be easy to be a muslim in the USA from now on.
- What is the suitable reaction to something like this? Public execution of the responsible people, maybe in central park?
- Maybe beside the point but I can´t help wondering just why the WTC towers collapsed in exactly this way. Where they designed to? Or is that a consequence of the statics of the building where the forces downwards are enourmous?
- Coordination of this sort of attack (Making sure that you have 4 planes under your control at the same time, with 4 pilots on board) must take an enourmous amount of money. Someone has paid for this. Let´s hope that they are available for collecting the interest.
- In all this, there still is intelligent life on this planet: The "Süddeutsche" has pulled their fancy web design and replaced it with a very simple, plain HTML page to better cope with the traffic while Focus Online and Spiegel where unavailable for a long period. Smart.
