America Together - New Jersey Voices

On September 11, 2001 there was an attack on America. This attack was the most tragic thing that ever happened to America. It ruined the Twin Towers and damaged the Pentagon. I had many feeling about what happened. Despite my feelings, there are many choices we as Americans can make.
When I first saw this it came as a shock, although the Bible warns of this very thing. I felt hurt for all the people who died as if it was someone from my family. I hope the people who lost loved ones find comfort. I also hope the people who died were ready.
There are many choices America can make. One is war, but that my not be the best choice. We could let them slide because they were reacting from something America did to them years ago. We could show them that we are the bigger people and we don't have to stoop down to their childish level.
We as americans should work hard to become a better people. I t should not have taken this tragedy for people to respect for one another. We have to realize we need each other more than we think. We could help each other more by working together to make America great country.
