"I was there and I haven't forgotten seeing the second plane hit the
second tower, nor have I forgotten anything else. it's never reminded
me of bombs dropping."
What did it remind you of?
Never having seen a bomb fall in my life it didn't remind me of bombs
falling either. In fact, when the first plane hit we joked about it.
Yeah, we said, some asshole just flew a plane into the building. But
after the second plane hit we all knew it was no accident. When the
buildings went down we all felt we were under attack. Not exactly bombs,
but an attack was under way. Our nation was under attack. Our children,
our parents, our brothers and sisters were missing and dead. Our homes
and churches were destroyed. Didn't remind me of bombs either. But
again, I've never seen a bomb fall on my homeland.
