We should have like a memorial in the homepage of antionline I know sometimes takes time but is part of our job to remember what happened last year to our shores
just an Idea
I think at least something would be nice.Google,for example,has a ribbon with 9/11 under it.It wouldn't necessarily need to be something big,just something to acknowledge the signifigance of the day.
I was surprised when i saw that there was no mention of it on the homepage of anti. I would have thought there would be at least a mention of it.
What about the other hundreds of people that die everyday in other countries? I do not see any memorial for them on AntiOnline and I am happy that it is so. AntiOnline is here for politics, it is here for one and one thing only, security. We do not need to deal with the mess of human politics, it is only a waste of time, space and information on such a website.
Yes, this is a security site. But that's not what this is about. It's about respect.
We could hold silent moments every day, just look at how many bombs that US threw into Afghanistan went wrong and how many innocent civilians died. Not to mention all other cruelness that is always going on.
Anyway whitedragon, just open a memorial thread for discussion if you feel so.
Btw, I don't see Google having anything? Could someone like post a screenshot if they see that "ribbon with 9/11 under it"?
Just go to the main page, www.google.com. If you use the toolbar to search, you won't get it, but if you go to the main page, there is a small ribbon under the search bar.

I can't any see ribbon either. Guess it's only shows for american people, which I with all due respect think is good.
just a question, what is the mood like around the workplace today in the united states???
i think a lot of people overseas may have forgotten the significance of today, it is a day that changed THE WORLD, not just u.s.
You are right ZeroOne... The US did toss a few bombs that missed their intended target and for that as an American and a former serviceman I am truly sorry... That does not change the fact that America is now at war and as such we as Americans have a duty to support our men and women in uniform while they are away from their families risking their lives so that you and I might have the chance to exchange our thoughts and ideas... Even in Finland you have the ability to get on your computer and make posts because America sent her sons to fight in World War II... All I was saying when I started the thread was that as human beings we should thank those who allow us to have the freedoms we often take for granted...

Synaptic Failure: The work place is a little somber. Some people feel it is their duty to come to work, and go about their daily business. This is done out of respect for those that died last year, and to show those who committed those evil deeds that we will not be fearful.
As the days and months went on after 9/11, the memories of the day itself kind of faded. Today has made me remember everything. From the person who told me what was happening, to the time I went to bed that night. I know other people are going through the same thing, but we're still working hard though.
God Bless America!
Those MILITARY bombs that went over Afghanastan were intended for military targets. They went astray. They ACCIDENTLY killed some of thier civillains. We (America) however DID NOT hijack two of their airliners, and DELIBERATELY fly them into CIVILLIAN BUILDINGS. Now they did attack the pentagon, a military target. Still a tragedy that people died, and in no way acceptable, but at least it was government people sworn to protect the country. The other attacks were simply cowardly acts.Quote:

Phactorial: I dont think its too much to ask for the corner of the main page of the website for one day to honor those who died needlessly, both military/civil servants, and civillian, with something as simple as attached GIF file.
Its not politics. Its honor. Its rememberance. its RESPECT.
Oh and BTW, I am also a Veteran.

just wondering what i did wrong ... so somebody took my only green tiny square! :( but anyways i'm not an american but this country is my house too and my suggestion was to show some respect for the victims and heroes (firefighters and others). thats all i need to say.
By the way there is a ribbon in google.com
Not a bad idea.
Listen whitedragon,i think you need some glasses because i gave you positives , now you just go around negging.:(:(:(
I got hit too and I gave him greenies because I agreed with him. that was BS!
Stick it, whitedragon.
This thread is actually in Site Suggestions and as this suggestion presented by whitedragon is (was) a bypassing issue I think we should now take any possible replies to the JBF's thread here: http://www.antionline.com/showthread...hreadid=234636 .
Although JP could now comment whether he will put some little tag here 9/11 next year...
EDIT/ADD: Or I don't know, it seems to be some kind of a memorial thread, every post dedicated to someone, althouhg Joey_Batch_File stated in his message that anything 9/11 related should go there to reduce the amount of threads related to that.
