9/11 was the most *ruthless* and unforgettable incident in the history of USA. It literally impacted every human on the planet in one way or the other.
ReplyDeleteEven after 22 years, some *radicals* still consider the incident to be a planned *propaganda* . People with such ideas have no *apathy* to the fact that thousands of innocent people lost their lives that day. That sacrifice can never be forgiven and forgotten. (Rola)
