Well dude considering that i was almost brought to tears sitting thousands of miles away i can only imagine how you felt.

However i am interested.. What is justice in this situation.. Revenge or Resolution?

Unfortunately in cannot be both as revenge only leads to greater revenge. In the sense that if you exact revenge for an action, then the other side invariably feel entitled to THEIR revenge. Besides this 9/11 action in itself is considered a REVENGE acion by those who supported this atrocity. (so we kinda wind up in a chicken and egg argument )

But my question still stands. What would be adequate justice in this situation.

I ask this question because i am not sure that this has been answered more than extremely vaguely since the happening.
Love for all, Hatred for none
