I watched it as the news cut in in the middle of the West Wing episode on channel nine. First reaction was that it was part of the episode, as similar events were dramatised in the X-files spin off show The Lonegunamn. As relisation set in i recall screeming for my dad to look at what was hapening. We watched in utter disbelif. For the rest of my life i shall not forget that night as i watched the whole night in horror. I recall praying many times for answers to why, and praying for those lost and injured, then praying for peace. Though i have watched many horror flicks nothing horfied me more than these events, i recalled my school days when i researched in disbelif the occurances of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and hoped that it would never happen again. And there before my eyes i saw it happen in real life.. A diffrent situation but the same evil, a lack of value for life. No desire, no belif, no purpose is greater than the value of life.
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing" Edmund Burke
Lest we forget that we are the infinite variety and combination of the universe and that we must stand united in the value of human life.
