美国新冠疫情日记 09/11
We Commemorate The 911 Tragedy
On September 11, 2001, there were four coordinated terrorists attacks carried out by the terrorist group Al-Qaeda against the United States. The World Trade Center Twin towers attack resulted in 2,977 fatalities, over 25,000 injuries and substantial long-time heath consequences and $10 billion in infrastructure and property damage.
9/11 is the single deadliest terrorist attack in human history
The hijackers were Islamic terrorists from Saudi Arabia and several other Arab nations reportedly financed by Osama Bin Laden. As millions watched in terror, the World Trade Center was attacked, another plane circled over downtown Washington D.C. before crashing into the Pentagon military headquarter where 125 military personnel and civilians were killed. A fourth plane headed from Newark Airport to California was hijacked and crashed into a farm area near Shanksville, Pennsylvania. All 44 people aboard were killed. The plane’s target may have been the White House, the U.S. Capitol or Camp David in Maryland.
Today the world is still in chaos from Asia to the Middle East. We have a lot of conflicts plus the coronavirus pandemic whch has given so many people suffering and pain. And we still don’t have any immediately solution.
We still urge all nations to sit down and face this international issue and not use force.
The 2020 presidential election is coming. Whoever wins will lead America and also will lead the world.
In this difficult time we need to be very careful not to go to war, which now means nuclear war. We all need to remember the history of mankind. It is a mirror and we should not make the same mistake again.
Today the first memorials to the victims of the September 11 attacks in 2001 were posted online as hundreds of webmasters posted their own thoughts and links to the Red Cross and other rescue agencies.
前事不忘 后事之师
今天是911事件纪念日,在美国东部时间2001年9月11日上午,恐佈份子刼持的4架民航客机撞击纽约世贸中心双子塔及华盛顿五角大厦, 共有2974人証实死亡, 另外还有24 人下落不明 。并造成数千亿美元的直接损失,政府之后在阿富、 伊拉克 、利比亚等发动之战争,可以说是耗尽国家财力,死亡惨重, 使美国陷入无可自拔的窘境之中。
歷史是一面明镜 ,911事件是个非常明显之例子, 中东地区长期在以阿问题上长期存在之矛盾, 促使阿拉伯世界对美国之仇恨。
今天的世界仍然充满了太多之危机,从中东到亚洲仍然有战争之潜在危险 ,全球政治之不确定性 加上新冠疫情之继续蔓延,大部分人都处於水深火热之中。
我们今天还是要呼吁全世界之政治领袖,尤其是美国应该继续加强世界各国之多边关係, 严防战争之发生, 尤其是在核子武器时代,战争将会摧毁世界。
美国大选即将到来, 毫无疑问 ,将来选出之美国总统将是影响世界最大的政治人物,也是美国如何领导全球人类之关键时刻,当我们共同纪念九一一事件时,不能忘记历史之教训。
