  1. "What happened next is the part that became a Broadway musical."

    Here's Tod with the Gander story.

  2. I remember two American war declarations clearly. The Gulf War/Desert Storm with GHW Bush... I was sitting in front of the little TV in our basement rec room watching him…January 1991

    and the day GW Bush invoked Article 5 and declared war on Afghanistan.

    I was again, sitting in front of a TV, the only time I went to the home of the parents of my girlfriend at the time.

    I remember that day in 2001 thinking, wondering whether it was the right thing to do.

    It was right for Canada to abide by the NATO treaty. But the subsequent 13 years and hundreds of dead Canadians, for what is now, the same Afghanistan as before, if not worse, makes it clear following blind rage does not solve anything.

    This deAdder cartoon from that time, that he posted on his blog today, is good.

  3. Die Doku von Jules und Gédéon #Naudet sollte eigentlich eine Feuerwache filmen. Zufällig filmten sie den Einschlag des ersten Flugzeugs in das #WTC.

    Auch 25 Jahre sind das beeindruckende und schockierende Bilder.

  4. This joke is especially funny to me today because 25 years ago people would say "no one could have imagined this" to which I would always respond "what do you wanna watch first, True Lies, Air Force One, or Die Hard 2?" #remember #nineEleven

  5. Here is a story about the response in Vancouver at YVR.

    It was the same at Gander, Calgary, Toronto, Montreal, and Halifax (not sure if there other Canadian airports that turned into refuges)

    ""I remember going to my manager airside and this is the detailed instructions I gave them: You’ve got 34 jumbos coming, figure out where they can park," Richmond said.

    "And they figured it out." "

    "It was a team of airport staff, including people who were normally plumbers, carpenters, and electricians. She said it was a similar story all over the airport that day.

    "People who work in our offices ... they were working alongside a guy who normally replaces baggage belts," she said. "

    "The one word she used to summarize the day: humanity.

    "We saw the very very best of it. As we know, we also saw some of the worst of it. But the very best of it so far outweighed the worst of it."

  6. Having now finished Brain of the Firm, I’m extra saddened with the fall of the Allende government, today in 1973.

    Incredible things were achieved in project Cybersyn, with extremely limited means, only to be destroyed by the Pinochet junta.

  7. around this time 25 years ago I was in an IRC chat and people were talking about something that had happened in New York.

    The rest of the day is a blur.

    Our world really did change that day, and not for the better.

    War, racism, and bigotry sprouted from that day like never before in my life and it continues now. We really never recovered as a global society, mainly due to the way politicians used that day to justify actions that had nothing at all to do with Osama Bin Laden while leaving the root causes that gave rise to terrorists willing to murder thousands to fester and grow.

    The only positive of that day was the humanity that came together to embrace the USA in its time of shock, grief and mourning. Nearly every country in the world, including Russia and Iran, stood in silence and mourning with the relatives of those killed and the USA itself.

    It's that humanity and unity that I'll remember today and celebrate. The other stuff, the world and society destroying stuff, I'll keep doing my best to fight against.

    Take care out there.

  8. #Nineeleven irgendwo in einem Bürogebäude in der Balanstraße auf einem Computerbildschirm guckend, die Lifebilder in einem Callcenter verfolgend. Es rief eh keiner an, weil alle schauten nach New York.

  9. Vor 25 Jahren war das Schrecklichste des Schrecken für diesen Tag vorbei.

    Jetzt begann die Einordnung, das Klarkommen mit dem, was ich die letzte Stunde gesehen und gehört habe.

    Und ich wusste, es würde im #Krieg enden.

  10. Terrorism that kills thousands of people is unacceptable and we need to work to prevent it.

    Disproportionate responses to terrorism that kill hundreds of thousands of people are unacceptable and we need to work to prevent them.

    There is no conflict between these statements.

  11. >25 Jahre nach 9/11: Auf die Anschläge folgte die #Überwachung

    tagesschau.de/ausland/amerika/

    > Die Anschläge am 11. September 2001 haben die US-Sicherheitsbehörden völlig überrascht. Als Konsequenz baute die damalige US-Regierung schnell einen gewaltigen Überwachungsapparat auf - mit Folgen bis heute.

  12. Wo warst Du, …

    > …als die Türme fielen?

    > Um 8.46 Uhr rast am 11. September 2001 ein Flugzeug in den Nordturm des World Trade Centers in New York. Als 17 Minuten später eine zweite Maschine in den Südturm fliegt, ist klar: Die USA werden von Terroristen angegriffen, Tausende Menschen sterben. Die Anschläge verändern die Welt.

    My next stop was in Windsor. On the radio, the hourly CBC news announced that the border was closed as were all the roads leading into Windsor. I turned around and headed home, amazed by the 60 km long line of transport trucks that lead to the border along the 401.

    The world was changing all around in dizzying ways.

  14. 25 years ago today I was driving to two site visits to inspect the safety of customer machines. My first stop was the Ford plant in Chatham, ON (now closed). While doing the inspection I passed a glassed in break room on the shop floor. Inside, a tv was playing CNN. On the screen the first tower was burning. Around me, crews who had been installing equipment were downing tools and leaving.

  15. Heute vor 25 Jahren. #Nineeleven . Schon wieder so lange her! Einer der Tage, von dem jeder wahrscheinlich sagen kann, was er damals gemacht hat, wo er damals war. Ich war damals im Büro, wir starrten auf die Bildschirme. Unvorstellbar, was wir da sahen.Als wir nach Hause kamen, sagte unser Sohn " der zweite Turm ist gerade eingestürzt ". Ein Jahr vorher waren wir noch in New York und auch in einem der Türme auf der Aussichtsplattform gewesen.....

  16. Oggi sono 25 anni esatti dalla nascita del nostro nuovo ordine mondiale, basato sulla manipolazione, sulla guerra e sulla sopraffazione del forte sul debole.

    Non che prima fosse diverso.

  20. Nicht alles lässt sich bei einer Tasse Tee mit den Mitteln der gewaltfreien Kommunikation regeln.

    Warum? Weil du dann die Konsequenzen aus Poppers Toleranz-Paradoxon missachtest und zu den Opfern der Intoleranz gehörst.

  22. “The Saudi cutout and the CIA shadow over 9/11”

    by Kit Klarenberg in The Cradle on Substack

    “On the eve of 9/11’s silver anniversary, it was widely reported that a forthcoming New York District Court civil case brought against notorious Saudi government operative Omar Bayoumi would deliver ‘smoking gun’ proof tying Riyadh directly to the attacks. Yet evidence alleging that Saudi intelligence managed two future hijackers as potential assets and did so through a ‘liaison relationship’ with the CIA has lain largely unexamined in plain sight”

    Am 10. September 2001 mussten wir früh morgens im Gewitter unser Zelt in Olympia abbauen und entschieden uns dann, in Patras ein Hotel und am nächsten Morgen die Fähre nach Italien zu nehmen.
    Nach fast 3 Wochen Interrail und Camping mal wieder ein richtiges Bett, Dusche, Fernseher!

  28. #silvester 2000/2001 habe ich in #newyork verbracht.
    Da ist dieses Bild entstanden.
    Und jedes Jahr, am heutigen Datum, muss ich mir das anschauen und an die vielen Menschen denken, die kurz nach dieser Aufnahme nicht mehr da sind

  29. Guten Morgen!

    Der 11. September 2001, schon 25 Jahre her?! Wie so oft möchte man sagen: “Die Älteren erinnern sich noch.”

    Solche Ereignisse brennen sich geradezu in unsere Erinnerung ein, sie setzen sich fest. Sie sorgen für eine Einteilung: “vor” und “nach” dem Ereignis.

    Trump's pushing big time on the "unbearable hell and a choking life."

    It was like he had G.W. Bush working as his puppet.

    And the following is separated from reality today by how many killings and maimings, how much profit for the arms industry?

    "The claim came just a few weeks before the collapse of his Taliban supporters in Afghanistan ... "
