Truth behind 9/11
Seen a lot of conspiracy theories about 9/11 and what really happened because people think it's easier to believe in stupid theories that have little to no proof. Also I will list the name of every victim who died including first responders so as to remind people this actually happened and is not something to joke about. These are facts plain and simple and not up for debate. Also not planting blame on Muslims or Islam because I don't believe justifying their actions in any way or aknowledge that they might have had a religious reason for doing what they did. Also I'm a fan of facts not fiction. I'm not emotional but I get pissed when I see conspiracies about 9/11 and I've been to D.C. also I don't condone the actions people took as soon as they heard who was responsible. For those who aren't aware of what I'm referring to, immediately after the 9/11 attacks mobs of Americans started attacking Muslims they saw in public. This unfortunately includes women and children at grocery stores. It also introduced cruel and unfair stereotypes about Muslims that were proudly blasted onto shows like American Dad and Family Guy. Extremists are separate and easily identified. To judge all Muslims based on an extremist sect is called Cultural Racism. To judge all Arabs based on extremists is called Ethnic Racism.Complete

Ascension
There is no such thing as a good side and bad side in a war. We are both the good and bad side. It just depends on your perspective. At the end of the day when the sun goes down we are still the murderers who took the lives of hundreds and sometimes thousands. We are still the ones who have orphaned children. And you call us saints but no, soldiers are murderers who hide behind patriotism and lies. -Lorelei Jameson WARNING THIS IS A SEQUEL. Go read Journey before you read Ascension.

Nine Eleven (#Wattys2015)
September 11th a high jacker doubts his mission. A fireman struggles to save his fiancé. A teenage boy loses him mind to radical Christianity. And a Lit professor prepares to start a college shooting. The only way to describe September 11th is through the long and arduous threads of life. Lives of others. Many. Changing. Folding together. Making. Interconnecting. Transposing our demise to our requiem. Forming on song, one tragedy, one day for our befallen. United, burnt, and broken. The smoke of our breaking made a momentous struggle a timeless sacrifice. Cover photo statue "Sleeping Beauty", by Ludwig Sussman-HellbornComplete
Are you ready? All right let's roll
September 11, 2001 began as an ordinary, late-summer day. As the sun rose, fair weather and blue skies prevailed over much of the country and thousands of commercial airliners prepared for flight. But, in less than two hours' time, this seemingly routine day was transformed when 19 terrorists boarded and hijacked four commercial airplanes to attack America. Nearly 3,000 people were killed when the hijacked planes were flown into the World Trade Center in New York City, the Pentagon near Washington, DC, and when United Airlines Flight 93 crashed in the Pennsylvania countryside outside of Shanksville, PA. Flight 93 did not arrive at the hijackers' intended target - the Nation's Capital - because of the selfless and courageous actions of the 40 passenger and crew members on board. "We're going to do something," passenger Tom Burnett told his wife that morning, the last words she ever heard him speak. They did. This is their story. This story is dedicated to the family and friends on Flight 93, I am sorry for your loss and may we never forget. ❤️ Number 8 on 10-31-23 Number 9 on September 11, 11-18-23 Number 5 on September 11, 1-2-24 Number 6 on Terrorist 2-1-24 Number 10 on nineeleven on 2-6-24Complete
