    I love my country.
    I don't love my country because we have great military power. As Yoda said, "Wars don't make one great".
    I don't love my country because the mere sight of the flag chokes me up. It's a piece of cloth. It's a symbol. Without context, that's all it is.
    I don't love my country because of my political affiliation. I am not a registered member of either party.
    I love my country, because time and time again, our greatest triumphs as a people, come on the heels of our greatest tragedies, failures, setbacks, and moments of embarrassment.
    We are a nation of Greater Fools. We are the people who bet on ourselves when any rational person would fold or compromise. We are relentlessly, maddeningly, unapologetically optimistic.
    I love my country. And that's why.

    9/11 I was in 4th grade. It was the first time I saw my dad cry. I remember coming home early from school to him putting up our flag over the driveway. When I asked him why all he could choke out was "a lot of people died today." That, on top of seeing tears in the eyes I instantly starting bawling before I even knew what happened.

    You gotta understand the nuance of the President calling for a press conference that late at night. It's extremely rare, and is either something amazing or something terrible.

      @@kabirconsiders Exactly. The U.S and the U.K have a very special relationship. Despite all the divides and differences in opinions we have always had each other’s backs. We established diplomatic relations in 1785, only 2 years after Great Britain recognized the U.S as our own country in 1783. Yes there’s been dark times like the war of 1812 but we’ve always recovered relations with one another. We are each other’s closest allies. When something serious affects one country it also affects the other. We’ve fought together brother by brother in many wars like both world wars despite the U.S late entry we supported the U.K with food and weapons. We made NATO together. We’ve fought together during the Korean war, and Afghanistan, and still to this day when it comes to global problems we consult one another. Our countries are very important to each other and we share a lot like a common langue even though it’s spoken a bit differently we’re still both English predominant speaking counties, we share media, and trade. Our countries are very alike and our friendship will most likely be eternal.

    It was also something that this game was two teams who come from two of the states directly affected. NY with the Twin Towers and PA with United 93.

It was 10 years later, that 3 month old baby was now just weeks away from 10 years old, and I watched her sleep as I heard the news that we got him. And this night.... This night, I was finally able to exhale that breath that had caught all those years ago. I could close my eyes that night knowing I could rest a little easier. This is why I love my country.

Schools in the US usually have a moment of silence every year on 9/11, and the day is pretty somber. Elementary schools usually focus on educating the younger kids on what happened while watching videos on it. American kids also have to start learning about school shootings and participate in drills to know what to do in case of a school shooter, which was eerie because at the same time we were told that if your school gets shot up it's most likely going through be one of your own peers. Have you ever seen American PSAs on School Shooters? Pretty crazy that it's such an issue in our country while Europe and other countries don't have the same issue or at least as bad

    Presidential news conferences happen quite a bit. Ad-hoc or conferences not pre-announced are rare indeed. As an American and a life long NY Met fan I remember feeling pride, but also feeling saddened and very angry all over again. Just watching this I still feel that anger and sorrow for all of those lives lost. Yet, we can all look back on a time when this country felt and acted in concert. One great nation, indivisible. THAT part breaks my heart.

But also I felt relief knowing he was not gonna do anybody any more harm ever again.

    I’ve watched this ESPN piece before, but it was a really interesting watch from your perspective. I love that it was the Mets playing that night; in the first games back after the attacks, then-catcher Mike Piazza hit a home run, and for the first time in weeks, New York had something to cheer about. I was a junior in college living six blocks from the White House on 9/11. I saw the Pentagon burning from the rooftop of my apartment building. There was a mad rush to get the hell out of the city, and afterwards, I’d never heard DC quiet like that before, and probably never will again. It was just this eerie, weighted silence. The next week, there were military personnel on every street corner. My now-wife and I had just left the DC metro area literally the day before the raid, and she woke me up to watch the announcement. Had we been there, we would have gone to the White House to celebrate. It was a sense of disbelief, joy, finality, and a prayer that perhaps the families of the 9/11 victims not only found some sort of vindication or peace or whatever they needed, and knew we’d never forgotten them. Very cool video. Thanks.

    In times like these, I love how people pull together.
    On 9/11, my parent's neighbor was touring France and was in Paris that day with her friend. Americans in France aren't always the easiest of tourist type relationships. But as she and her friend were waiting for their tour group, passers-by realized from their jovial behavior that they knew nothing of what had just transpired at home. The French people around them told them to call home immediately to hear the news from family. Afterwards they were able to share concerns and fears with one another. As flights were grounded and reopening airports was a nightmare, the women, like many other Americans were stranded there in France, but were taken in for several days by complete strangers, until they were able to secure passage home.
    Why can't we find some of that compassion now from our own people at home?

    It’s also worth mentioning that the Mets and Phillies HATE each other. They are on the same devision in the MLB, so they play each other often. (Like Manchester City and Manchester United levels of hatred). So to have their fans united in any fashion is amazing. And it’s nearly impossible to put it out of your mind, you just have to try and focus on the game. Bring the broadcasters in camera during a game is also very rare. The President giving and address that late at night is also very rare, so when we heard there was one coming everyone was going “What’s going on?”

We were near an AFB and it was restricted airspace. No one ever went over us no matter what the time. He had gone out to get brakes on my car so I could go to work in a little while. When he came home, he looked like a ghost and asked me if I had the news on yet. I hadn't. A minute later the phone rang and it was the VA wanting him to come in to the local VA hospital so that they could see how fit he would be so they would know what part he could play if all troops were called out. A very horrifying day. To say the least I was terrified. Thankfully he did not have to leave, but we both volunteered at the hospital to do whatever was needed for our soldiers.

Honestly a lot of us didn’t know what was going on bc we were young. The teacher came running over and turned off the tv and then then a bunch of teachers gathered in the other room with the tv on. The closed down school and sent us all home bc I live about 2 hrs away from this. So many firemen and emts from around where I live didn’t even hesitate they were down there ASAP. It’s a horrible thing and around me there are a few places that actually have part of the towers there. It’s so sad

    Kabir, I love the compassion and integrity you show toward situations that beg for it. Where compassion and integrity have been stolen out of a moment in time you show how every man should react and that sadly not all do. I appreciate that and I'm sure a lot of others do too.

    I went to The White House that night it was announced they got him. It was an amazing experience.
    My husband is military and on 9-11 I was in a teenage fire department training (fire explorers). I was so hit when the towers fell and heard all the personal alarms of the fallen Fire Fighters makes me sick every time I hear it.

    September 12th 2001 - the last day America was truly United as one. Then we saw a little bit of unity when we got Bin Laden. Today America is torn and divided and it’s extremely saddening.

    I remember this day. I was in first grade. I was in bed, but heard the TV from down the hall. I went out to see what was going on and my parents were hugging and my mom was crying. They told me the news and I joined in on the hug. I was too young to truly understand how amazing that moment was, but I could feel the relief of everyone everywhere.

    I remember I was at my grandma’s with my parents and grandparents.
    Earlier in the day, we had heard rumors that Bin Laden had been hunted down and killed. Yet it was rumors and it was all over the news. It was then finally that Obama came out on National TV and said he was gone.
    I’m happily from New York and still live here. The energy throughout the town was just crazy. Neighbors cheering, some crying, but all were reacting to this.
    Everyone in my town lost somebody or had been directly impacted by 9/11. So the news definitely brought a form of closure.

      @@kabirconsiders No, Osama bin Laden was hiding in Pakistan (with the apparent knowledge and blessing of many Pakistani government officials). The country borders Afghanistan, where he fled from, and the Taliban are actually from Pakistan originally; presumably, they got him out of Afghanistan, and used their contacts in Pakistan to set him up in a town there.

    I was in high school when 9/11 happened. I don't remember when it was between my 1st period and 2nd period class, or my 2nd and 3rd. But, I do know it was Spanish. When I walked into the room, the teacher already had the TV turned on to the news, showing the first plane hitting the tower. That was pretty much all we did that day was watch the coverage and discuss what was happening. I also remember, throughout the day, periodically hearing military planes or helicopters flying over the school.

      I was 18 and had been in the air force for 3 months. I was training to be an air traffic controller and 911 was my first day on the tower simulator. So many images from that day ingrained in my memory. It's so weird when something is happening and you tell yourself "I'll remember this exact moment forever" and 20 years later it's still there like yesterday. The day of 9/11 is by far that biggest moment for me.
