Non Americans, How Was 9/11 Displayed in Your Country?

Non Americans, How Was 9/11 Displayed in Your Country?

Americans watched in horror as the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, left nearly 3,000 people dead in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Shanksville, Pennsylvania. Nearly 20 years later, they watched in sorrow as the nation’s military mission in Afghanistan – which began less than a month after 9/11 – came to a bloody and chaotic conclusion.

A devastating emotional toll, a lasting historical legacy
Shock, sadness, fear, anger: The 9/11 attacks inflicted a devastating emotional toll on Americans. But as horrible as the events of that day were, a 63% majority of Americans said they couldn’t stop watching news coverage of the attacks.

Chart shows days after 9/11, nearly all Americans said they felt sad; most felt depressed
Our first survey following the attacks went into the field just days after 9/11, from Sept. 13-17, 2001. A sizable majority of adults (71%) said they felt depressed, nearly half (49%) had difficulty concentrating and a third said they had trouble sleeping.

It was an era in which television was still the public’s dominant news source – 90% said they got most of their news about the attacks from television, compared with just 5% who got news online – and the televised images of death and destruction had a powerful impact. Around nine-in-ten Americans (92%) agreed with the statement, “I feel sad when watching TV coverage of the terrorist attacks.” A sizable majority (77%) also found it frightening to watch – but most did so anyway.

Americans were enraged by the attacks, too. Three weeks after 9/11, even as the psychological stress began to ease somewhat, 87% said they felt angry about the attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon.

Fear was widespread, not just in the days immediately after the attacks, but throughout the fall of 2001. Most Americans said they were very (28%) or somewhat (45%) worried about another attack. When asked a year later to describe how their lives changed in a major way, about half of adults said they felt more afraid, more careful, more distrustful or more vulnerable as a result of the attacks.

Even after the immediate shock of 9/11 had subsided, concerns over terrorism remained at higher levels in major cities – especially New York and Washington – than in small towns and rural areas. The personal impact of the attacks also was felt more keenly in the cities directly targeted: Nearly a year after 9/11, about six-in-ten adults in the New York (61%) and Washington (63%) areas said the attacks had changed their lives at least a little, compared with 49% nationwide. This sentiment was shared by residents of other large cities. A quarter of people who lived in large cities nationwide said their lives had changed in a major way – twice the rate found in small towns and rural areas.

The impacts of the Sept. 11 attacks were deeply felt and slow to dissipate. By the following August, half of U.S. adults said the country “had changed in a major way” – a number that actually increased, to 61%, 10 years after the event.

A year after the attacks, in an open-ended question, most Americans – 80% – cited 9/11 as the most important event that had occurred in the country during the previous year. Strikingly, a larger share also volunteered it as the most important thing that happened to them personally in the prior year (38%) than mentioned other typical life events, such as births or deaths. Again, the personal impact was much greater in New York and Washington, where 51% and 44%, respectively, pointed to the attacks as the most significant personal event over the prior year.

15 years after 9/11 – the attacks continued to be seen as one of the public’s top historical events
Just as memories of 9/11 are firmly embedded in the minds of most Americans old enough to recall the attacks, their historical importance far surpasses other events in people’s lifetimes. In a survey conducted by Pew Research Center in association with A+E Networks’ HISTORY in 2016 – 15 years after 9/11 – 76% of adults named the Sept. 11 attacks as one of the 10 historical events of their lifetime that had the greatest impact on the country. The election of Barack Obama as the first Black president was a distant second, at 40%.

The importance of 9/11 transcended age, gender, geographic and even political differences. The 2016 study noted that while partisans agreed on little else that election cycle, more than seven-in-ten Republicans and Democrats named the attacks as one of their top 10 historic events.

Canadian PM Justin Trudeau Calls For 'Humanitarian Corridor' To Deliver Help In Gaza

Canadian PM Justin Trudeau Calls For 'Humanitarian Corridor' To Deliver Help In Gaza

Canadian PM Justin Trudeau Calls For Humanitarian Corridor To Deliver Help In GazaTrudeau says it's 'imperative' that supplies get through Israel's Gaza siegeIn a rare moment of unanimity, Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre added his voice to the prime minister’s in calling for safe zones for Gaza's civiliansOTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said it is “imperative” that Israel respect international law and allow humanitarian access in the Gaza Strip, where one million people have been displaced in the first week of the war with terrorist organization Hamas.Trudeau made those comments in the House of Commons on Monday, as MPs were returning from a break week. It was their first time reuniting since Hamas’s terror attacks on Oct. 7. Five Canadians were among the hundreds killed in the attack and three Canadians are missing, presumably kept as hostages by Hamas.“Canada fully supports Israel’s right to defend itself in accordance with international law. And in Gaza, as elsewhere, international law, including humanitarian law, must be upheld by all. Even wars have rules,” said Trudeau.Israel’s military has told Palestinian civilians to get out of the northern part of the Gaza Strip ahead of a possible ground invasion, and has demanded that Hamas return dozens of hostages taken from Israel.An exit agreement for civilians through Gaza’s southern border with Egypt that international negotiators had hoped for has not materialized.Global Affairs Canada estimates that 300 Canadians, permanent residents and their families are attempting to flee Gaza, which has been under siege by Israel for days.Civilians are running out of food, water and other necessities, while fuel supplies are running low. Canada has committed to sending $10 million in humanitarian aid, but getting supplies into Gaza cannot be done without an agreement for a humanitarian corridor.“Canada is calling for unimpeded humanitarian access and a humanitarian corridor so that essential aid like food, fuel and water can be delivered to civilians in Gaza. It is imperative that this happen,” reiterated Trudeau.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-cheating-stories-2025--5953081/support.

Former Oklahoma City Police Officer Daniel Holtzclaw Interrogation AUDIO (complete)

Former Oklahoma City Police Officer Daniel Holtzclaw Interrogation AUDIO (complete)

Former Oklahoma City Police Officer Daniel Holtzclaw Interrogation AUDIO (complete)Daniel Ken Holtzclaw (born December 10, 1986) is an American former Oklahoma City Police Department patrol officer who was convicted in December 2015 of multiple counts of rape, sexual battery, forcible oral sodomy, and other sexual charges.[4]Holtzclaw was convicted of eighteen counts involving eight different women. According to the police investigators, Holtzclaw abused his position as an officer by running background checks to find information that could be used to coerce victims into sex.[1] During the trial, the defense questioned the victims' credibility during cross-examination, bringing up their criminal records.[5] Of the thirteen women who accused Holtzclaw, several had criminal histories such as drug arrests, and all of them were African American.[6] The prosecution argued that victims were deliberately chosen by Holtzclaw for these reasons.[7]Holtzclaw pleaded not guilty to all charges. On December 10, 2015, he was convicted on 18 of 36 charges, and on January 21, 2016, he was sentenced to 263 years in prison.[8][9][10]Jason Flom (a founding Board Member of the Innocence Project), right-wing commentator Michelle Malkin and others have supported Holtzclaw's claims of innocence. On August 1, 2019, Holtzclaw was denied an appeal by the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals, which upheld both his convictions and prison sentence. The defense petitioned the Supreme Court of the United States on the basis that merging seventeen cases together "strains credulity". On March 9, 2020, the Supreme Court refused the petition.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-cheating-stories-2025--5953081/support.

Steven Murray | Locked Priest In Trunk then Murdered Him | Police Interrogation

Steven Murray | Locked Priest In Trunk then Murdered Him | Police Interrogation

Steven Murray | Locked Priest In Trunk then Murdered Him | Police InterrogationThe motive for the killing isn't entirely clear.Murray told the St. Augustine Record for a story published in July 2016 that he had Robert in the trunk of the car in South Carolina and realized he could get in big trouble if Robert ever reported him."I just (expletive) freaked out and I killed him," Murray told the newspaper in an interview from jail.Speaking more generally, Murray has told AP that he suffers from mental health issues and wanted to cause pain because of hurt he had suffered in his life.Authorities have said Murray has twice attempted to kill himself in jail since his arrest.Murray expressed both sorrow and defiance in public statements as he was taken from the courthouse after hearings last year. In postcards and calls to AP from jail, he has repeatedly said he cries over Robert's death and that he is sorry."My apologies go out to the family and friends of Father Rene," he said Tuesday. "I hope with time they can get some closure."Murray has said that his father abused him badly while he was growing up in South Carolina. His sister, Bobbie Jean Murray, told AP that the abuse led Murray to drugs and crime at an early age.He met Robert through a girlfriend, Ashley Shreve. The couple did drugs together, and Robert often gave them money, against their families' wishes.Robert's colleagues have said he was devoted to helping the poor, often scraping leftovers from plates into baggies to give to the homeless. He also had great compassion for addicts, sometimes going so far as to lend them his car while he walked home alone through dangerous neighborhoods.Because he devoted his life to helping society's most troubled, he was also aware that he could become a victim of violence. More than two decades before his death, he signed a "Declaration of Life," calling for his killer to be spared execution in the event of his murder.That did not sway prosecutors, who have said their decision to seek the death penalty was based on the aggravated nature of the slaying.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-cheating-stories-2025--5953081/support.

The Murder Of Kelsie Schelling True Crime Documentary

The Murder Of Kelsie Schelling True Crime Documentary

The Murder Of Kelsie Schelling True Crime DocumentaryKelsie Schelling was 21 years old and eight weeks pregnant when she vanished in Pueblo, Colorado, on February 4, 2013. She had just learned she was pregnant with Donthe Lucas' child and had driven down from Denver to Pueblo after he told her he had a "surprise" for her. Her car was discovered a few days later at Pueblo's St. Mary-Corwin Hospital, and surveillance video showed Lucas driving it there.After years of rumors that Lucas was implicated in Schelling's disappearance, he was arrested and charged with first-degree murder in November 2017, according to the Denver Channel. He pled not guilty in August 2018 and denied any involvement. Lucas didn't want Schelling to have his baby, so he lured her to Pueblo and killed her, according to prosecutors. Schelling's body has never been found, and there is no DNA evidence of her murder, with the abandoned car serving as the last sign of her existence. In the days after her disappearance in Pueblo, video footage of Lucas showed him using her bank card and moving her vehicle.Colorado Bureau of Investigation believe Lucas strangled Schelling after luring her to the town. During Lucas' trial, his defense lawyers argued that neither her body nor any DNA had ever been found, and that charging Lucas with first-degree murder was the "biggest stretch in Colorado history," but the jury found him guilty after less than three hours of deliberation.the murder of kelsie schelling,kelsie schelling,donthe lucas,murder,murder trial,colorado news,true crimeBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-cheating-stories-2025--5953081/support.
