Out of the Blue [Sep 10, 2002, 06:50 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Tomorrow is the one-year anniversary of the attacks on the Pentagon and the
World Trade Center. So much has changed in the ensuing time it is quite
staggering to consider... I'm not really sure how this would apply to those
living outside the U.S., but it's really hard to imagine any amount of time
doing anything to diminish the impact of 9/11 here. Anyway, nothing I'm going to
say here can do the gravity of all this justice or put it into any sort of
perspective, so having said this now, I'm pretty sure I'll just forego an Out of
the Blue ramble for tomorrow. Here's to the sincere hope that the ever-rising
global tensions that have surrounded this event start to ease soon so we can
avoid further tragedies.

I'm not really sure how this would apply to those living outside the U.S.Well, whatever pity and compassion felt towards the US after 11/09/01 has drastically diminished mostly due to extremely nationalistic foreign politics.
From a Norwegian newspaper today:
A new survey confirms the growing disillusionment Norwegians have toward their traditional ally and friend the USA. On the eve of the anniversary of the terrorist attacks last Sep. 11, American foreign policy has won few friends here.read more here (in English): http://www.aftenposten.no/english/local/article.jhtml?articleID=396980
