shog upvote tasteful ytmnd. shog hear no music, but shog like it silent.

lol, lame out loud

I was home with the flu watching TV the minute it came on the news. Within the same hour, they announced the pentagon had been hit. I thought the world was going to end that day.

shog go five mode to counteract NARVS

I'm sorry if people didnt like it, i thought that deaths of thousands of people was important, this is a sad day in history, for me

there's going to be a million clone sites

love the way you guys have politicised death of innocents.

The estimated civilian bodycount in Iraq since US Intervention is at the minimum 41,650. Where is the memorial for that? I'm fairly certain most if not all of those people had nothing to do with 9/11 or any kind of evil, scary plot. My bet is that they were everyday people like those who died in New York, though maybe with some obvious religious, ethnic, language, and/or political views. But my point still stands, it's hypocritical to focus on one tragedy because it happened here while overlooking others entirely.

its natural for a country to mourn their own dead. if a lack of a memorial for some other tragedy disturbs you, by all means, do what you can to commemorate it.

Well, how about this one then. In Iraq since 03/19/2003, 2,666 American soldiers have lost their lives while 19,945 have been wounded. Those are our people and they're being sent to die and kill in a war that has nothing to do with anything relevant to the average American's life. How do they get away with it? Mostly because people love their mindless patriotic drivel, namely by justifying everything, even if it doesn't even stand up to reason or logic whatsoever, by a tragedy that happened 5 years ago.

I gave an opinion laced with real facts and a strong point, is that not having something to say?

Just wait, some Loose Change fans will start pretending to know what they're talking about really soon.

the main reason the tragedy of iraq has not been commemorated is that it is still taking place. i can garantee you that it is on the minds of every man in power that we find a way to minimize the amount of bloodshed, now that we are in this terrible situation. the only difference of opinion is how this is done.

I'm more concerned with the bloodshed now, basically.

you put up a website commemorating those lost in the ongoing wars in the middle east, I'll five star it, and some other f*ck like you will come along and one star it, politisizing death.

Life, as long as there are people and opinions, is going to have politics. I don't really see how trying to use ugly words detracts from my point in the slightest here.

I also don't think that YTMND is the right place to commemorate death. Comedic sites are probably the wrong venue.

ytmnd is what you make it.

I don't really understand your outrage, I simply put my ideas out there, and tried to make my own point. To blame me for it doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

Coolix, I understand why you made it. I really am not trying to be a jerk here, I just probably got a little carried away with my point. I apologize anyhow for causing this kind of a discussion, I'm sure it wasn't what you were intending.

You guys are silly.

yep

I guess I just said what I did because I see more atrocities and death being spawned by this and it deserves mention. The "revenge" mentality that some took on after this has caused a lot of ugliness.

bin ladin wanted a war of the west against islam, and he got it.

Iraq has nothing at all to do with 9/11. It was simply a country that the administration was itching to have a war with and they got a great excuse. Meanwhile, the people are so blind by grief that they let it happen, and some even to this day, still think that Iraq had something to do with 9/11.
