A MESSAGE FOR BIN LADEN
Osama Bin Laden,your time is short;
We'd rather you die,than come to court.
Why are you hiding if it was in God's name?
Your just a punk with a turban;a pathetic shame.
I have a question,about your theory and laws;
"How come you never die for the cause?"
Is it because you're a coward who counts on others?
Well here in America,we stand by our brothers.
As is usual,you failed in your mission;
If you expected pure chaos,you can keep on wishin'
Americans are now focused and stronger than ever;
Your death has become our next endeavor.
What you tried to kill,doesn't live in our walls;
It's not in buildings or shopping malls.
If all of our structures came crashing down;
It would still be there,safe and sound.
Because pride and courage can't be destroyed;
Even if the towers leave a deep void.
We'll band together and fill the holes
We'll bury our dead and bless their souls.
But then our energy will focus on you;
And you'll feel the wrath of the Red,White and Blue.
So slither and hide like a snake in the grass;
Because America's coming to kick your ass!!!

America has experienced an incredible tragedy today, with the cowardly terrorist attacks on New York City and the nation's capital. Our thoughts and prayers go out to each of the friends and families of those killed and injured in this outrageous act of aggression.
Please join me in taking time today to pray for the victims and their families, as well as for our nation's leaders. In the days ahead, as our nation struggles to sort out this disaster and authorities investigate these horrifying crimes, we will most urgently need the hand of God upon our land.
As we face the future, let us remember Psalm 27:1-3: "The Lord is my light and my salvation - whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life - of whom shall I be afraid? When evil men advance against me to devour my flesh, when my enemies and my foes attack me, they will stumble and fall. Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then will I be confident."
May God bless and keep the land we love.
Sincerely,
Jay Alan Sekulow

Dear friend,
I can't be more proud to be an American.
Watching yesterday's tragedy unfold filled me with fear. But at the same time, I had this feeling of hope because no matter where I turned here in New York City, I saw people helping other people.
In checking the yourfreepresent.com website I found more notes than I could possibly answer, from people asking how they can lend a hand, and help to erase some of the horror with kindness. Here's what you can do:
1. Donate blood. Simply go to the blood bank in your home town and ask where you can give. It's easy. It's painless. And it's totally safe. I plan to do it this afternoon.
For more information contact the American Red Cross: redcross.org/donate/donate.html http://www.valuemailplus1.com/cemails/ctags.asp?ctag=590&VID=435358
or call 1-800-GIVE-LIFE
2. New York City police are gathering food and clothes that will sustain the victims and their families for many weeks to come. To find out where you can give call the Red Cross or Salvation Army in your area.
How can I help? Visit www.fema.gov http://www.valuemailplus1.com/cemails/ctags.asp?ctag=592&VID=435358 for more information.
Keep your courage and strength. Pray for peace.
Most sincerely yours,

Dear Heavenly Father,
We are moved by the alarming news and crisis that our country is
facing.
This, the greatest nation, founded in the belief that "In God We Trust"
&
the "Land of the Free". Please have mercy on those suffering, hurting
and
in fear, and give wisdom & strength to those who are assisting. May the
forces
of evil be broken by your power and may we humble before thee, our
strength
and refuge.
Give wisdom to our President & all our leaders and bring your
comforting
peace through the power of your Holy Spirit. Help us here to reach to
those
that have been affected by this tragedy.
In the name of our Lord and Savior, Christ Jesus. AMEN
Please send this to all your friends and create a prayer chain
throughout
this nation.
This received 9/14/2001.
Our brothers and sisters in New York have asked for
all of us to take part in a Nationwide candle light
vigil.
Whether you choose to do this or not, is up to you,
but I believe it is a positive idea in the middle of
all of this tragedy. Friday Night at 7:00 p.m. step
out your door, or step out of your business
establishment and
light a candle. We will show the world that Americans
are strong and united together against terrorism.
Please pass this to everyone on your e-mail
list. We need to reach everyone across the United
States quickly.
The message: UNITED WE STAND - WE WILL NOT TOLERATE
TERRORISM!
The world needs to see that The United States Will Not
Lay Down!
If anyone knows who did this picture I'd really like to know so as to be able to give proper credit. Thank you!

This, from a Canadian newspaper, is worth sharing.~~~
America: The Good Neighbor.
Widespread but only partial news coverage was given
recently to a remarkable editorial broadcast from
Toronto by Gordon Sinclair, a Canadian television
Commentator. What follows is the full text of his
trenchant remarks as printed in the Congressional Record:
"This Canadian thinks it is time to speak up for the
Americans as the most generous and possibly the
least appreciated people on all the earth. Germany,
Japan and, to a lesser extent, Britain and Italy
were lifted out of the debris of war by the
Americans who poured in billions of dollars and
forgave other billions in debts.
None of these countries is today paying even the
interest on its remaining debts to the United
States. When France was in danger of collapsing in
1956, it was the Americans who propped it up, and
their reward was to be insulted and swindled on the
streets of Paris. I was there. I saw it.
When earthquakes hit distant cities, it is the
United States that hurries in to help. This spring,
59 American communities were flattened by tornadoes.
Nobody helped. The Marshall Plan and the Truman
Policy pumped billions of dollars into discouraged
countries. Now newspapers in those countries are
writing about the decadent, warmongering Americans.
I'd like to see just one of those countries that is
gloating over the erosion of the United States
dollar build its own airplane. Does any other
country in the world have a plane to equal the
Boeing Jumbo Jet, the Lockheed Tri-Star, or the
Douglas DC10?
If so, why don't they fly them? Why do all the
International lines except Russia fly American
planes? Why does no other land on earth even
consider putting a man or woman on the moon? You
talk about Japanese technocracy, and you get radios.
You talk about German technocracy, and you get
automobiles. You talk about American technocracy,
and you find men on the moon - not once, but several
times - and safely home again.
You talk about scandals, and the Americans put
theirs right in the store window for everybody to
look at. Even their draft-dodgers are not pursued
and hounded. They are here on our streets, and most
of them, unless they are breaking Canadian laws, are
getting American dollars from ma and pa at home to
spend here. When the railways of France, Germany and India were
breaking down through age, it was the Americans who
rebuilt them. When the Pennsylvania Railroad and the
New York Central went broke, nobody loaned them an
old caboose. Both are still broke.
I can name you 5000 times when the Americans raced
to the help of other people in trouble. Can you name
me even one time when someone else raced to the
Americans in trouble? I don't think there was
outside help even during the San Francisco
earthquake.
Our neighbors have faced it alone, and I'm one
Canadian who is damned tired of hearing them get
kicked around. They will come out of this thing
with their flag high. And when they do, they are
entitled to thumb their nose at the lands that are
gloating over their present troubles. I hope Canada
is not one of those."
Stand proud, America! Wear it proudly!!
This is one of the best editorials that I have ever
read regarding the United States. It is nice that
one man realizes it. I only wish that the rest of
the world would realize it. We are always blamed for
everything, and never even get a thank you for the
things we do.
> I would hope that each of you would send this to as
many people as you can and emphasize that they
should send it to as many of their friends until
this letter is sent to every person on the web. I am
just a single American that has read this, TRIBUTE TO AMERICA!

Dear Friends,
I had planned to continue our treatment of the butterfly
image we have been adding to in the past weeks.
We have many new members this week, and I want to assure
them that, normally, we just simply do something fun.
But my heart is not in it this week.
This list is international in its members. Brits, Aussies,
Canadians, people from many other countries subscribe. And
the horror of the actions of the murderous vermin who chose
to use our own citizens as human bombs has effected us all.
Last night, the reality of what has happened sunk in. I
learned from news reports, that the World Trade Center, is,
indeed, an international place.
The United States is not alone in the great loss of life
that occured there on Tuesday. While Britian, Ireland, and
Japan seem to have suffered the heaviest losses, next to
ours, Mexico and other countries have lost their citizens
and loved ones as well. May I extend my condolences and
sympathies to these allies, as they have been so supportive
to the United States at this time.
I wish to thank our Canadian friends for allowing
planes destined for the USA to land in their airspace. I
wish to thank all members of the European Union for their
support and aid, as well.
I have created two animations. One is mostly for US people,
the other for all of us. The words in the animation come
from a flag which flew in the early days of our country,
it contained the words, "Don't tread on me." I altered it
a bit for our modern purposes.
In the last few days, I have been touched by the emails
and instant messages which have come to me from all over
the world. Americans know we are not alone, and we are
most appreciative of yor support.
On several lists I belong to, I have read posts from people
who express fear. They no longer feel safe in our country,
the country of their heritage, the country of their home.
And so I say, if you fear, the terrorists win. It is what
they banked on. It is what they want. It is partly the reason
they murdered so many innocents, both American and otherwise.
In the immortal words of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who
led our country through its most difficult days, "We
have nothing to fear but fear itself."
If we fear them, they win. Do not let them win.

THIS IS A HOAX:
Look at this page:
This is eerie:
Nostradamus' prediction:
"In the year of the new century and nine months,
From the sky will come a great King of Terror...
The sky will burn at forty-five degrees.
Fire approaches the great new city..."
"In the city of york there will be a great collapse,
2 twin brothers torn apart by chaos
while the fortress falls the great leader will succumb
third big war will begin when the big city is burning"
- NOSTRADAMUS (1654)
Make sure to look at the attached picture too--it's haunting, but beautiful.

Father:
We come against this enemy that has attacked our country. No weapon
that is formed against us shall prosper. We pray for the families of those
who
have lost loved ones in these attacks. And bring healing to the injured. We
pray for our President and all the great leaders of this country that you
will give them wisdom. We pray for Divine intervention and ask your favor
for America.
Thank you for your protection from further attacks. Comfort the hearts
of the people.
In Jesus Name,
PRAYER WORKS. PLEASE PASS THIS ON IF YOU ARE IN AGREEMENT.

For a partial list of the victims on the 4 jetliners go here.
Tu-Anh Pham, who is of vietnamese decent, was employed by Fred Alger Management, Inc.
on the 93rd floor of the
first building hit. She was married to Thomas Knobel of Homer, NY. Together they made their home
in New Jersey and just returning back to her job after having had their first child, born 6 weeks
prior to this tradegy and after trying for 10 years to conceive. We all are so very sorry Tom.
Jason Dahl, 43, from Denver, Colorado, was the plane's captain. He had a wife and son.
Dahl had a lifelong interest in flying, said his aunt, Maxine Atkinson, of Waterloo, Iowa.
David Angell, 54, of Pasadena, California, was the creator and executive producer of the hit NBC
sitcom "Frasier." A native of West Barrington, Rhode Island, Angell entered the Army after
graduating from college and served at the Pentagon until 1972. He worked in insurance and
engineering before selling a script for a TV series in 1977. In 1983, he joined the TV series
"Cheers" as a staff writer and began working with co-supervising producers Peter Casey and David
Lee. This team formed a production company, creating and producing "Wings" in 1990 and "Frasier"
in 1993. The trio won 24 Emmys.
Please help to support this wav and it's spreading around the world. It is a musical tribute to
the events & happenings of September 11, 2001 and it's called
"The Walls"
We need patriotic Americans to send cards and letters to service members stationed overseas.
Know that what this support provides tremendous benefit in morale for our deployed men and women
who need to know that we stand behind them, and that they will never be forgotten.
As difficult as serving in the armed forces may be, the worst part is probably the time when
they are deployed, away from family and friends. Many thousands of our military men and women
were just deployed. That is the reason for Operation Military Pride. Cards and carepackages are
gathered from around the country for shipment to units and personnel who are deployed throughout
the year. This is an ideal.
For information on how you or your organization may participate in Operation Military Pride and
receive addresses of deployed servicemembers please click on link below. We will send you the
addresses within 24 hours.
