Looking at it on TV right now
President Bush said it was an terrorist attack

 

[Uppity]

Yeah, I've been trying to get more info on it but all the main news websites seem to be jammed

 

[Rostam]

ive seen it 15 mins after second attack, MAN! well, i guess something like this was coming, all those attacks on palestine... it was a mather of time before they would attack america for not doing anything...

i just hope that idiot bush doesnt start WO III over this! this is his first real business! GIVE ME CLINTON NOW!

 

[DarkBls]

OT

*MOVED*

 

[phatcat]

ditto here

post some news if you can

 

[Zundfolge]

News sites jammed?

how many news agencies are there headquartered in New York?

I imagine it will be difficult to get a digital feed out of there

 

[phatcat]

/.
CNN is down. MSNBC is performing badly. And this is being submitted a lot. The World Trade Towers in new york were crashed into by 2 planes, one on each tower, 18 minutes apart. Nobody really knows who did it, but the planes were big ones. Normally I wouldn't consider posting this on Slashdot, but I'm making an exception this time because I can't get news through any of the conventional websites, and I assume I'm not alone.

Phatty I thought It was a Learjet not a Bi-plane? I havent head nada about a bomb or passengers being on-board
Saw tha crash though, nasty a British reporter was on the ground floor at tha time an desribed the noise as sounding

Like a skip being dropped from a hight

into tha main plaza between the two buildings.

 

[phatcat]

They just bombed the Pentegon!!!

 

[Thrash123]

jeez dude, and me without a TV in my dorm.

Not good.

 

[ElectricSheep]

Turned on the TV around 9:15 and the first thing I see is the 737 veer into the second tower. To think of all of the people in that building and the passengers on that plane, it makes my stomach churn May God help those left alive and the rescuers who go bravely to get them out.

 

[Aeris]

*update* Ma dad says tha Pentagon has been hit!? F.U.C.K
The White house an Us Treasury have been evacuated as well
