9/11 (or 11/9 on this side of the pond...)

[lizziec]

I was reading through my friends list tonight (and my bloglines feed) both of which include quite a few Americans. As a result of this, and the fact that we have been thinking about 9/11 on this side of the pond too, I have read several posts about the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington 5 years ago today.

The best one I have found was by lisaofdoom in this post. In case you are too lazy to click on the link (I know most of you too well :P) here is the video she has, embedded right here in my very own ickle LJ.

It's the start of The Daily Show from 20th September 2001, the first one after the terrorist attacks. The host is Jon Stewart who lives in New York where The Daily Show (shown on E4 at 8:30 every weeknight for those of you in the UK) is filmed.

I think he says it better than anything I could write or anything I have read today.
