It’s a long time ago, but would any mudcatter by any chance remember an event that occurred in the first year of the 21st millennium -sometimes referred to as “911”?

On September 9 all those years ago , back in 2001, there was a terrible attack on the World Trade Center in New York carried out by a terrorist organization called Al Qaida in which thousands of innocent people lost their lives. Most decent-minded people felt angry and upset about the killings at the time.
I seem to remember there were even a few folk-style songs written about the tragedy.-maybe in the Mudcat database? Must check.

It would likely all seem like coincidence and ancient history while you are celebrating the fall of Damascus, I know , but just to remind you that the terrorist group that killed all those innocent people all those years ago in New York is the same group now in control of Syria .
