Presidential statement - draft 2
THE PRESIDENT HAS SEEN
Today, our fellow citizens --our way of life -- our very
freedom came under attack in a series of deliberate and
deadly terrorist acts.
The victims were in airplanes or their offices, secretaries,
businessmen and women, military and federal workers -
Moms and Dads, friends and neighbors.
Thousands of lives were suddenly ended by evil,
despicable acts of terror.
The pictures of airplanes flying into buildings, fires
burning, huge structures collapsing, have filled us with
disbelief, terrible sadness - and a quiet, unyielding anger.
These acts of mass murder were intended to frighten our
nation into chaos and retreat - but they have failed. Our
country is strong. A great people has been moved to
defend a great nation.
Terrorist attacks can shake the foundations of our biggest
buildings, but they can't touch the foundation of America.
These acts shattered steel buildings, but they cannot
dent the steel of American resolve. America was targeted
for attack because we are the brightest beacon for
freedom and opportunity in the world, and no one will keep
that light from shining.
