9/11

Do things happen for a reason ?. I would hate the answer "yes" .But when things happen they do change a lot of ideas and people...

I still remember what I was doing when 9/11 happen, I still remember the exact place I was sitting in.

It's a tragic event whether we like to admit it or not.. 9/11 was one of the first events that I could disapprove of immediately when it happened. The first time I was called an "infidel" by someone for making it clear that I am against "the Taliban". 9/11 opened my eyes to a lot of injustices around the world. 9/11 made me have the power to stand for the injustice and say that it's.

But how do you react against"injustices" by committing one yourself is a tough task and America has failed in that. The invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq is the most clear example .

Having 14 Saudi out of the 19 terrorist changed Saudi Arabia a lot.
A huge religious debate have started after 9/11 and never stopped . We have a wider range of freedom because of 9/11. I guess the government tried to prove to the world that not every Saudi is a terrorist made huge changes.

The notion of what about us ? What about our victims ? wont make it right. You can not ask people to care about your victims while you are dancing on the graves of their loved ones.

The number of people died in the Arab spring all over the Arab countries will reach the number of people died in 9/11, if it's not already. Do we know their names? ages?dreams and hopes?. Are we ready to remind the world of them every year? What about the ones died in Iraq and still ?
That's why America is powerful, people count there, people are important.And we will only be as powerful when the people count not the presidents. When we are all the same and no one is more important than the rest.
