Ten years have passed since the 9/11 attacks and we still do not know exactly who committed them. Yes, Osama Bin Laden admitted it was Al-Qaeda. But how can we build a whole assessment of such an act on the words of Bin Laden?

Why would he not want to boost his status as the world?s worst terrorist when such an opportunity was laid in front of him? British writer and journalist Robert Fisk said in 2001, ?I wondered, after those images of New York last week, whether Bin Laden was not as astonished as myself to see them.?

I do not believe in conspiracy theories and do not waste my time on them, but the lack of a proper official investigation into 9/11 shocks me.

The attacks were a very cruel act, but simply because they happened on American soil to the American people somehow gave them more value.

Every year for the last 10 years on September 11, the whole world stops for a minute?s silence to remember those who died in the World Trade Center. But how often do we remember all those who had suffered from the US military interventions in Iraq, Vietnam, Korea, Indonesia, Laos, Cambodia, Afghanistan, most Latin American countries, in Hiroshima and Nagasaki? Those people who died as a result of the US foreign policy are considered as inevitable victims in the fight with the ?evil?.

The definition of this ?evil? is changing constantly. What doesn?t change is thousands of innocent victims, not only those who died, but those who stayed alive after their loved ones were killed and now have to live with this feeling of loss and grief for the rest of their lives.

Before 9/11 the Americans could not comprehend what it meant to lose your friends and relatives in a terrorist attack, bombing, violence. The rest of the world has always lived in this nightmare. As Indian writer Arudhati Roy rightly said, 9/11 is ?the gentlest, most human way to say to the citizens of America: Welcome to the World.?

The US government was quick to use the grief of those who lost their loved ones in 9/11 attacks to start a war, to kill somebody else?s children and innocent people in the other part of the world. They used human feelings for political purposes. They have forced people to exchange liberty for security. But as soon as people gave up liberty, they realized they wouldn?t get security. They wouldn?t even get the feeling of security they wanted so much.

September 11 should be a day to remember not only those who died in the attacks 10 years ago, but also all those who died as a result of the American aggression towards the rest of the world, people who were quickly forgotten simply because they were not Americans.

I was always suprised that they said that is was Bin Laden so quickly and was totally astonished that they claimed to have found a hijacker's passport amongst the rubble within hours of the second tower comming down (not only finding it but instantly claiming it was one of the terrorists passports) That is either very, very, very lucky or very suspect.

The main reason the 9-11 services are so wildly broadcast are to reinforce the view that the military action against non hostile countries that America is engaged in now is justified.
