Remember the USS Cole - 7 years ago today
2007-10-12
Link goes to The Jawa Report's roundup of what we knew then, and what we know now.

Doesn't really seem that it was only 7 years ago, does it?

#12  Remembering that day -- when this tragedy was broad casted.. I stopped and just stared at the television....

I remember that instant, and all the other instants that followed. Seeing pictures of that ship lifted to a barge, to be brought back to the States.

I bow my head in a moment of silence, while the rest of you above me, have to make catty remarks.

Have you no shame?

#9  I googled "Leah Ashley" (for you, don't do it). It takes you to a buncha myspace junk and tries to install garbage, while closing your RB window for some spam trash... thanks for playing, "Leah"

#8  Bush wasn't President yet.

Yes, but his governership of Texas was already sending shockwaves throughout the Islamic world.

#7  Whoa Nelly, 7 years ago to this day makes it the year 2000. How could there have been a terrorist attack in 2000. Bush wasn't President yet. You must have your dates wrong.

#6  "how about also remembering the USS Liberty?"

Quite simple. That event happend on June, 8. Not October, 12. (Not sure if those dates relate to the Wiccan calendar but maybe it will help you out anyway.)

#5  Because its often used in such a manner by those who oppose Israel.

#4  The reference to the Liberty is certainly off-topic but, I'm curious, why do you think it belongs in the realm of fevered conspiracy-mongering?
