9-11 Memorial Update. Rather than append these links to the bottom of my long 9-11 post, where you probably won't see them, I made a new post.

A timeline of the day's events.

Joan Gato has a delayed reaction.

Individual stories:
Timothy's story. Pretty scathing, ending with an apropos quote from "The Tempest" (scroll down a bit to "Dear Blog Irish").
Greg's story.
The picture that won't go away.
Laughing Wolf's story.
Richard's story.
Tilly's story. (You have to read this one right now.)
Real Live Preacher's story.
Ideofact's story.
Radar's story.
Hans' story.

Memorial:
Another memorial page for Flight 93.
"This day is call'd the feast of Crispian." (In memory of Michael Lynch.)
Really big JPEGs of the WTC - before, during, and after.
The troops in Iraq remember.
The Dissident Frogman remembers.
Ilyka's got some links about Canadian memorial services and reactions.
Exhibit 13 by Blue Man Group.
Huge JPEG aeriel view of about one square mile of Manhattan around Ground Zero.

Words words words.
Andrea fisks a stupid twit.
The only post on September 11, 2003 at No War Blog. (See? If they can get over it, why can't you?)

FDR's "fireside chat" of September 11, 1941.

Solidarity Statement of the Student Movement Coordinating Committtee for Democracy in Iran.

Looking forward:
What Would Roosevelt Do? Okay, What Would Clinton Do?
Connecting the terrorist dots.
Fighting WWIV.
The great divide in American opinion. Andrew Sullivan calls it clarity fatigue. IMHO it is partly Bush's fault for not repeatedly communicating the issues in bullet points. (This is not a reflection on the intelligence of the American public - this is SOP in corporate change initiatives and is applicable here. Roosevelt also understood this. I may expand on this later.)
But they are after you, Old Europe.
Cost of war.
