Reaction to the attack

Steff, Canada

First, I want to start by saying that people here are very sad with the events that occurred in the U.S and we wish our sympathy to all the families who lost loved ones. Some of us can't help but feel partly responsible for what happened. If it was not for our capitalist and "Master of the Universe" attitude, this event would not have happened.

We keep imposing our culture to the rest of the world and messing with their politics, even using force to do so. We keep 1/3 of the world population in horrible condition in order to keep our life style. Then we wonder why they get angry.

The World Trade Center and Pentagon were the most visible symbol of that oppression we inflict to many parts of the world. We just hope that more people understand our part in this tragic events and work toward making sure that nobody ever have a reason to do such a horrible thing.

We truly believe that the people that participate in this attact should pay for their actions, but not through the killing of more innocent victims (which bombing always does) but rather through the international court who will trial and convict them for their action. My sympathy again to everybody that suffered a loss, my prayers goes to you.
