Freiburg, Germany (tillwe)

In the afternoon (local time, which is morning in the US), I was learning for my exam sitting in front of my computer in my room. In a break, I switched on some online news and was absolutly shocked by seeing the news on WTC. The next hours I tried to find every information I could about the incident, talking to friends and family. A friend of mine was visiting the USA then, and only three days latter I found out she was well. As it became known that the Pentagon was hit, too, my thought was that the US, wounded as they felt, would react immidiatly military (which didn't happen, what I didn't know then). The next morning I woke with the thought the world may be in WW III, in a big clash-of-civilization-like scenario.
