September 11 - the 10th aniversary of the 9:11 incident and it is just half year since March 11
I clearly remember the tragic scenes of what happened in U.S. ten years ago. I will never forget watching live on TV the scenes of the hijacked passenger plane crash into the World Trade Center Twin Tower. About 3,000 people from 90 countries were killed. What a tragedy it was! Since then, the United States and its allies have engaged in so called the fight against terrorism, and the mastermind of the incident, and the leader of al-Qaeda, Osama bin Laden, was killed May 5 this year. But during these 10 years, what has happened ? Are the fight against terrorism going on a victory road? I don't think so. The wars in Afganistan and Iraq are still continuing. Far larger a number of people, not only solidiers but civil people, than the number of the victims in US ten years ago have been killed. Terrorist attacks have often happened in UK, in Spain, in Pakistan, and many other places in the world. Many American and British young solidiers return home every week, some dead, some injured. I often see the young men who fought in Afganistan and Iraq injured phisically and mentally. What should we think of these facts?
