I'm
not sure what
you were
expecting when
you followed the
link to come to
this page...
maybe you were
expecting a page
dedicated to
what happened on
11th September
2001, maybe you
were expecting
me to talk about
all the hero's
who lost their
lives that day,
maybe you were
even expecting a
patriotic page?
This
isn't gonna be
any of those
things.
This page is
dedicated to the
memory of
*everyone* and I
really do mean
*everyone* lost
because of
terrorism and
war... it's
dedicated to all
those people
lost because of
the IRA bombings
here in the UK,
to the people
who lost their
lives in
Afghanistan, to
the people who
are at war right
now and yes, to
the people who
lost their lives
in the attacks
on America
too... these
pages are for
*everyone*.
I'm
writing this
page on
September 10th
2002... the day
before the 1
year anniversary
of the attacks
on America and
there are pages
all over the
internet
dedicated to
what happened
but what really
saddens me is
that there don't
seem to be any
dedicated to
those lost to
other terrorist
attacks and
those who lost
their lives in
all the wars all
over the world.
This
page is for
them... each and
every one of
them.
To
each and every
person who has
lost their life
because of
someone else's
prejudice or
because someone
couldn't sort
out a
disagreement
without using
weapons... this
page is for
them.
To
everyone who has
lost a loved one
due to the
violence of
someone else...
to the innocent
victims of
arguments
everywhere, no
matter how big
or small.
To
the innocent
people who lost
their lives
"because
they started
it" or
because
"they did
it
first"...
to those
innocent people
who lost their
lives because
the leaders
couldn't say
"enough
blood has been
shed - let's
stop this
now".
To
the mothers and
fathers,
brothers and
sisters, aunts
and uncles,
nephews and
nieces,
grandparents,
cousins and all
the family
members who will
never see their
relative again
because of the
horrific
tragedies that
happen every
day... this page
is for them.
To
the real life,
online,
telephone and
penpal friends
of all those who
have lost their
lives because
those involved
in terrorism and
war don't know
when to say
"enough is
enough".
To
everyone who has
ever been and
will ever be
affected by
violence that is
beyond their
control and
those who are
the innocent
victims of it...
...
this page is for
you.
You
are all hero's
and I will never
forget you.
