Over the days leading to the anniversary of lthe horrendous sight we all saw on television I have watched many documentaries including 'The Falling Man'.
But the one face that stands out for me is the face of George Bush as he sat with the kids and was told the planes had crashed into the buildings in New York.
No look of surprise there. No look of concern save to bite or just purse his lips and then continue on with what he had been doing.
People were choking on smoke by then and beginning to know they had to chose between burning to death and jumping and still he sat.
I will never forget that face of indifference he showed and the lack of action he took.
I have never seen it before in my long lifetime and never want to see it again.
I can no longer look at the world the same. So I am never surprised anymore in mans inhumanity to man.
You go on as you are Clouds and more power to the men like you who have the courage to think whether they are proven right or wrong it doesn't matter if the answer is just and right.
And by the way there is a documentary by the CBC that proves to me indeed they did have warnings over and over and chose to sit on it.
At least the man was being true to his nature. at the school wherehe heard the news first. He once again sat on it.
