I can well remember the day, as I was on an early shift and returned home to switch on the news programmes, and watched the second Twin Towers attack live as it happened.
Regarding pastor Jones, I can understand why people feel like he obviously does, but can't fathom how on earth he thought his planned activity was in any way constructive. I think this is stooping to the sort of level that we see when Muslims burn Western flags & effigies.
A subsidiary question: What is the general view in the States about the proposed mosque in the vicinity of Ground Zero ? I don't know the details, but is this viewed as a deliberately provocative Muslim action ?
