Chris Cantell Discusses US News: It's been six years since 9/11 and things are starting to change
by Corina Ciubotaru
It's been six years since the 9/11 attacks. As every year, family and friends of the victims gathered to remember them in the first ceremony that wasn't held at Ground Zero. They said the park used for most of the ceremony couldn't compare to being at the actual crash site and that former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani shouldn't have come to the ceremony. It was a rainy day and the first time the eleventh was on a Tuesday; this may mean the end of a cycle. Fewer people showed up than last year but they still performed the usual ceremony: read the names of all 2,750 victims, laid flowers at the WTC site and held four moments of silence to mark the times when the two planes crashed into the towers and when the towers collapsed. Ceremonies were also held in Shanksville, Pennsylvania and at the main US airbase in Afghanistan, while the victims of the plane crash in Shanksville were honored as citizen soldiers. Defense Secretary Robert Gates hosted another one at the Pentagon, the fourth target hit by planes that day, for the families of the people killed in that attack. Another tradition was also held as a video believed to have been made by al-Qaeda featuring Osama Bin Laden was released yesterday. In it, he is heard praising one of the 19 hijackers and he looks the same as the last video the terrorist group released last week. That video is the first one in three years that shows Bin Laden.
