Thanks again from NYC-America under attack
Below is the message I got from my very good friend and sister. Just wanna share it with you all.
Dear all,

Thanks again for all your call, e-mail and support. I'm very appreciated and learn that all of you care about me very much :)

There is one Thai citizen missing whom we haven't heard from her since then. She is my boyfriend's (Bobby) cousin, her name is Saranya Srinuan. She worked on 104th floor of the World Trade Center. She just graduated from Boston University, her nickname is Suzie. She's very pretty, good looking girl. She is only 23 years old and just started working in Finance Company. Please pray for her. We still hope that she is still alive and stay in some hospitals in tri-state area.

The reason that I write you this e-mail is to let you know the situation in NYC. It's quite like a war zone in downtown area. They close lower Manhattan from 14th street down to the end of island. People will not be allowed to get in until they can show their id and prove that they live in the area. We heard a lot of bomb scared such as New Port Mall (near my office), Empire State Building, the bridges, etc. We belive that they may be copycat but we are not quite sure. I have to work today and it's quite difficult to go to New Jersey under this circumstance. It effects all of us in NYC. I know everything will not be the same at all. I don't know what will happen next so I try to make myself ready, such as wearing the sneaker instead of nice shoes, etc. We try to make everything be the same. The terrorists cannot use this method to make us scare. We will make our lives go on, though we cry inside. We, thai citizens in NYC, would like to be volunteers to help all rescuers find the victims. We will donate money, food and other useful stuffs to the families of the victims. We will do as much as we can.

Thanks again for people who asked me to come back home but I don't think I should. At this time, I should stay here, everything can happen in everywhere in this world. All of you, please take good care of yourself and family. I cannot be with my family in Bangkok, but you guys can. Please take this opportunity to stay with your family as much as you can. I'm not overreacting but you cannot tell from the news that you see from another part of the world. I stay here and know the situation. We, thai citizens, would like to be volunteers to help all rescuers find the victims. We will donate money, food and other useful stuffs to the families of the victims. We will help as much as we can.

Friday Night, September 14, 2001, at 7:00 p.m. step out your door, stop your
car, or step out of your 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: WE STAND UNITED - WE WILL NOT TOLERATE TERRORISM.

Below is the story I got today, please read it and share to everyone:

An open letter to a terrorist:

Well, you hit the WorldTradeCenter, but you missed America.
You hit the Pentagon, but you missed America.
You used helpless American bodies, to take out other American
bodies, but like a poor marksman, you STILL missed America.

Why? Because of something you guys will never understand.
America isn't about a building or two, not about financial centers,
not about military centers, America isn't about a place,
America isn't even about a bunch of bodies.
America is about an IDEA. An idea, that you can go someplace
where you can earn as much as you can figure out how to, live
for the most part, like you envisioned living, and pursue Happiness.
(No guarantees that you'll reach it, but you can sure try!)
Go ahead and whine your terrorist whine, and chant your terrorist litany:
"If you can not see my point, then feel my pain."
This concept is alien to Americans.
We live in a country where we don't have to see your point.
But you're free to have one. We don't have to listen to your speech.
But you're free to say one. Don't know where you got the strange idea
that everyone has to agree with you.
We don't agree with each other in this country, almost as a matter of pride.
We're a collection of guys that don't agree, called States.
We united our individual states to protect ourselves
from tyranny in the world.
Another idea, we made up on the spot.
You CAN make it up as you go, when it's your country.
If you're free enough. Yeah, we're fat, sloppy, easy-going goofs most of the time.
That's an unfortunate image to project to the world,
but it comes of feeling free and easy about the world you live in.
It's unfortunate too, because people start to forget that when you attack
Americans, they tend to fight like a cornered badger.
The first we knew of the War of 1812, was
when England burned WashingtonD.C. to the ground.
Didn't turn out like England thought it was going to,
and it's not going to turn out like you think, either.
Sorry, but you're not the first bully on our
shores, just the most recent.

No Marquis of Queensbury rules for Americans, either.
We were the FIRST and so far, only country
in the world to use nuclear weapons in anger.
Horrific idea, nowadays? News for you bucko, it was
back then too, but we used it anyway.
Only had two of them in the whole world and we used 'em both.
Grandpa Jones worked on the Manhattan Project. Told
me once, that right up until they threw the switch,
the physicists were still arguing over whether the
Uranium alone would fission, or whether it would
start a fissioning chain reaction that would eat
everything. But they threw the switch anyway,
because we had a War to win. Does that tell you
something about American Resolve? So who just
declared War on us? It would be nice to point to
some real estate, like the good old days.
Unfortunately, we're probably at war with random
camps, in far-flung places. Who think they're safe.
Just like the Barbary Pirates did, IIRC. Better
start sleeping with one eye open.

There's a spirit that tends to take over people who
come to this country, looking for opportunity,
looking for liberty, looking for freedom.
Even if they misuse it. The Marielistas that Castro emptied
out of his prisons, were overjoyed to find out how
much freedom there was. First thing they did when
they hit our shores, was run out and buy guns. The
ones that didn't end up dead, ended up in prisons.
It was a big PITA then (especially in south
Florida), but you're only the newest PITA, not the first.

You guys seem to be incapable of understanding that
we don't live in America, America lives in US!
American Spirit is what it's called. And killing a
few thousand of us, or a few million of us, won't change it.
Most of the time, it's a pretty happy-go-lucky kind of Spirit.
Until we're crossed in a cowardly manner, then it becomes an entirely
different kind of Spirit.

Wait until you see what we do with that Spirit, this
time. Sleep tight, if you can. We're coming.
