The Palastinians have a great deal of greivances. Perhaps if they were less violent themselves they would get a better share of World sympathy - but perhaps not.

I can understant their feelings running high, and they are far less likely to have seen the full facts or full coverage.

I give them the benefit of the doubt as a race, but condemn those who lead them to violence or incite further hatred.

Update from the BBC.

They reckon 800 people in the Pentagon, a VERY ROUGH figure.

Possibly up to 5,000 people in EACH TOWER of th e WTC, again, very rough.

Emergency crews were caught up, being in the building when it collapsed.

Also, another 47 storey building collapsed during the night (UK time) due to damage caused by vibrations of the collapsing WTC.

Other buildings probably damaged, may be a few weeks before the area is re-opened.

CNN update:

BOSTON, Massachusetts (CNN) -- A day after catastrophic strikes on two renowned symbols of American power, law enforcement sources say officers in Boston and southern Florida took several men into custody in connection with the attacks.

Several people were detained in Venice and Vero Beach, Florida, and at the Westin Hotel in Boston's Copley Square. Police said the men have not been arrested and did not describe them as suspects. Boston police say the detainees may offer "important material information." The Florida detainees are thought to have connections to flight schools in the area. (Full story)

Meanwhile, the search for survivors continues in the rubble at New York's World Trade Center and the Pentagon in Washington, D.C.

Bear in mind that there has been little coverage about the Pittsburg plane and there are also rumours of over planes that were hijacked. A possible reason for this is that United States forces shot them down for the reason Andrew mentioned.

Those people who were celebrating about the death of tousands of innocent people must be a bit dead in the head. They should think 'WHAT IF IT HAPPENED TO YOU'. I think they would feel different if that happened. People like that just makes me sooooooooo angry!!

there were apparently 2 planes that went missing after being hi-jacked and one was supposedly the one that crashed near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. the other one may have just crashed in the sea or something.
