All: In what is being described as A DAY OF TERROR, the World Trade Center Building in New York and the Pentagon in Virginia are under air attack by apparent suicide bombers. Two planes crashed into the WTC Building this morning. The first plane hit at 9 A.M, and the second hit eighteen minutes later. Shortly thereafter, another plane crashed into the Pentagon here in Virginia.
From my office in Virginia, I can see thick clouds of smoke emanating from the Pentagon. The Pentagon City/Crystal City areas are in chaos. Most offices have been evacuated. Whirls of sirens from emergency vehicles rent the air. The Washington Mall, site of the famous Washington Monument, the Treasury Building, and the Executive Office Building are also reported to have been hit. My Cell phone is dead and phone communications around the country have been affected.
There is suspicion that these attacks are in response to events in the Middle-East, and from Arab anger over what the Arabs perceive as US lack of fairness over the Middle-East conflict between the Israelis and the Palestinians. The anger appears to have boiled over following US walkout from the World Conference Against Racism, which recently concluded in Durban, South Africa. In recent weeks, the Israeli and Palestinian conflict had assumed more violent proportions.
I am writing in a hurry, my building is now being evacuated.
Here is a picture of the WTC Building after the bombing.

From ABC News, the word is that a hijacked plane headed for the US Capitol is currently under surveilance. Employees of the US Capitol have been evacuated. Metro Rail (the DC Metro transit system) previously grounded, has now resumed operations.
I have noticed that there are lots of messages on my cell phone, but I am not able to check the messages at this time. The communication stations are said to be shut down.
A while ago, there was a loud blast, loud enough to be heard in Crystal City Virginia. I have been informed that the blast was the Washington Monument suffering a direct hit.

Only cowards and evil clones will undertake massive destruction of innocent lives and property as "terrorists" do. I pray and trust that those behind these devastations will be apprehended and justice swiftly handed them.
I had to vamoose Philadelphia downtown area this morning as air was tense with fear and anxiety. As the Mayor announced cautionary closure of public places, businesses and schools - one could just feel so angry and baffled at extent of human hate. I hope none of our dear Internet forumites and/or other Nigerians are caught in the mess.
Across the Atlantic (in Nigeria), we are suffering same devastations in hands of certified anti-God religious zealots. It is no hiding how I hate religious terrorists and rebels. Lessons, as now in the US and Nigeria, should redefine governmental dispensation of security and order.
I take no rebelious/terrorist threats as a joke because there is no telling what hate mongers can do. Thank God for patient and matured leaders 'cos some would use extremes to exterminate them - and rightly so.
My prayers to innocent men, women and children killed or maimed by brutal men both in Nigeria and in the US today. I heard President Bush order the Feds to help deprived families immediately. I hope President Obasanjo and the NASS are not just satisfied with giving out Press Statements but have set in place an emergency Relief system to help families and displaced persons in Jos. That should naturally have come before deployment of troops from Rukuba Barrack.

My condolences to all the victims. Yes, I have adopted America my free home, a country blessed with freedom and any attack on this beloveth country is my goodamned business and will affect me and my family. This is an act of declaration of war against those who value democracy and free world. All Biafrans must repudiate this act of coward aggression.
Nothing of this has ever happened since the attack on Pearl Harbour. Now is the time to manufacture a special atomic bomb for the Arab world. I say NUKE the ARABS and send a message of retaliation to all these god foresaken moslems in Arab and Nigeria. Level their goddamned Allah. Destroy Iraqi, Ben Laden and company and isolate Arafat for they are heartless cowards who will feast the blood of children to make their mark.
I call upon all the children of Isreal to help America level these half humans, the Moslems. They are no different than evil masquerading with God. The Juhadist must be stopped by any means necessary. God Bless American and to hail with all moslems and moslem Nigeria. This is the time. America gotta nuk'm.
Hail Biafra

Joy; Just leave me alone! It is sad enough what those terrorist have done. However, do not forget the other side of the religious terrorism called ethnic rebellion. If you condemn one, condemn the other.
Also, remember this: "Blessed are the peace makers: for they shall be called the children of God."

It is very unfortunate that something like this could happen. When I first heard about it, I never thought it was that serious until I saw the drama on TV. It’s very sad that these innocent people have to die for something that know nothing about.
As usual we have the bloodthirsty sons and daughters of Satan the Arab/Palestinians celebrating the death of these innocent lives. The first time I heard about it I knew that those cursed group of fanatics were going to be ones involved in such act. These Arab/Muslim are the devils of the world. Where ever they go they cause trouble everyday. In Sudan they are butchering our Christian/Animist brothers. In Jos they are fighting with the Christians. How long will those lackadaisical Eastern leaders realize that we must be separated from these gworo eating hashish Islamic muggers.
But at the same time I blame the U.S. Government for this problem including the one in the Middle East. Where were the Americans when these people were committing genocides Sudan. Like people will say, “You rip what you sow.” Wasn’t the US Gov. bedfellows with these bloodsucking Arabs before? Weren’t they the ones who formed their unholy alliance during the Biafran war.? They supported the Arabs and Northern Nigerians in their GENOCIDAL WAR against us and now the Arabs have turned on them. The problem with the US is that they never mind their own business and will never take a definite stand on many issues. When the Arabs go against the each other the American Gov. will want to be involved in the conflict even when they know that the feud between the Arabs/Muslims should be solved by the Arab/Muslims themselves. It is that inquisitive character that has made them attract more enemies from the Arab world. I am not surprised at what is happening right now. The US were the instigators of the conflict between Iraq and Iran and later the two devilish Arab nation turned on them. If the US want to support Israel they should clearly come out and let every one know that they are supporting the Jews and stop acting like fools all the time. I want them to fully back the Israeli Government.
I pray that these half humans will be dealt with mercilessly. If US, Israel, and the Christian nations and non Chritian nations declare war on these skunks I as a Biafran will be in full support. Oh yes we will join and deal with them in East and make them pay for the atrocities that they have been perpetrating against us. May their cities, towns, countries and villages be decimated and overrun by the American forces. They do deserve to be treated like animals ‘cause that’s exactly what they are. The Hausas who are celebrating are proper devils and I hope the US will attack Northern Nigeria if they ever declare war on any Arab nation, be it the Afghanistan, Palestine or Lebanon.
Ikpatt says "Also, remember this: "Blessed are the peace makers: for they shall be called the children of God."
Are the Hausas your lovers peace makers. U are a complete hypocrit. U support the Hausas when they murder innocent Easterners, u support them when they are killing the Southern Sudanese but later u'll talk about paece making. Have u ever condemned what the Biafrans have been going through in Biafranigeria. Yeye fork tongued Ikpatt. U are not a paece maker either, 'cause if u beleive in paece u will be in support of Biafra. We want peace and peace is Biafra but as long we are in Nigeria we will defend ourselves whenever we are attacked.

What happened in new York and Washington is an act of war. It is not terrorism. You Christian bastards were there when America was bombing hotels and food factories in Baghdad. What did you say? You are the fork-tongued ones. Americans tried to assasinate Sadham Hussein, and they said they were bombing his "command and control." Now, the Arabs have bombed the Pentagon and every coward is calling it terrorism. The pentagon is America's command and control. What kind of terrorism? When the Americans bombed the Al Rashid Hotel in Baghdad, they called it collateral damage. How would they like the people in those planes to be called collateral damage? You people are confused.

I think we can safely say,that we the Igbos and other ethnic groups constituting Biafra condemn all acts of violence and terrorism, having been ourselves subjected to acts of untold terror during the Biafran- Nigeria war and since. We are simply horrified at this abject and total disregard for human life. We suffer with the whole American peoples and heartily agree with President Bush that this is an attack on Freedom. The smoke welling up from the world trade center brought back memories of our peoples being burned alive by Nigerian northern moslems; the sights of the thousands of New Yorkers walking home on the Brooklyn bridge brought back memories of our people fleeing en masse yet again from the northern cities of Nigeria. As we reach out in sympathy to the American peoples we hope that they will now recognize the threat of Islamic Jihadism all over the world and realise that the threat we are currently living under is truely of global importance and in no way exagerrated.

I still say it,NUKE the Arabs for they are menace to society. If we do not Nuke them this time I will be damned. Let the Moslems in the northern Nigeria celebrate it shows their level of functioning. Simeon Rashid exposed Islam as satanic verses, a lady in Pakistan also exposed the religion as nothing short of devil worshippers. I say nuke the Arabs for good.
Now is the time. It is now or never. The Northern Nigeria are nothing but copy cats or should I say home grown moslems who only act as reactionary. They are poor and under educated and therefore do not have any sense of religious direction. They tend to act on the impulses imposed on them by other Arab countries. What is it for Zamfara to celebrate? is it the blood of innocent citizens or the falling down of a building? What has World trade center got to do with Islamic cause? It is fair to say that moslem Nigeria is desparate and out of touch with humanity. Adamu and Zamfara state once again proves to the world that Nigeria is made of two people. The Good, the Bad and the urgly, the bad and urgly all being the north. Their celebration frankly, is meaningless and very common among a bastardized race..the Northern Nigeria. Go ahead celebrate,your next.You sore it and you reap'em.
Hail Biafra

Waypoint1Biafra: You tell me. What did Al rashid Hotel have to do with American freedom. But they bombed it. What did the baby milk factory have with freedom? The Americans bombed it. What did a simple pharmaceutical company in Sudan have with American freedom? The Americans destroyed it. Americans are too spoiled. They are used to watching wars and death on CNN. They send their F-16s and B1-Bombers to kill innocent people. Now, they know that what goes around comes around. That is their headache.

I have no word to describe this sort of carnage in American history since the attack on Pearl Harbor. This is evil, the very symbol of Islam. President Bush made it clear in his broadcast: "We will make no distinction between the terrorists who commit these acts and those who harbor them." They must be sought and all the Arabian cowards must be made to pay.

I have been made to understand that a good number of Biafrans could be among the dead!
A good number of Biafrans work in the 2 Towers.
I spoke to some Biafrans at the World Bank in Washington and the story is not good. But they are fine. (World Bank Office is very close to the Pentagon)

Adamu moron I don't need to make any freaking point to an idiotic muslim like u okay. It is good that your Hausa brothers in Nigeria are celebrating the terrorist act perpetrated by those evil minded arabs. (The devils own race.) They are exposing themselves and I pray that the US drop atomic bombs in Northern Nigeria especially that Zamfara area. U fools do not deserve anything good,. I say to u all, Hausas, Fulanis, Muslims," Go to hell and burn there. U people have caused enough trouble in this world and it's about time that we the Christians, Jews, Animists, and other non-muslims stand up once and for all and deal with u devils. U've proven to the world that u people are a gang uneducated cowards who know nothing but terrorism. I hope the US with the help of the allies will pounce on u gworo eating sex addicts with full force."
Adamumumu That act was an act of terrorism. It was an evil despicable act of terror committed by a bunch half human cowards from the Arab world. Call it an act of war that's your goddamn business. As far as I am concerned your arab bloodsucking brothers are all cowards. If they wanted to attack US they should have done it like Japan. Who ever did it should boldly come out and exchange blows with the American forces.
Yeye idiot u must be celebrating at home, right. U people are the most atrocious group of people. U kill innocent people for no reason and u brag about it. Adamu u Muslims are morons. The palestinians are a good example. THEY waste their time roaming the streets screaming Jihad. What a group cursed evil-minded animals u guys are. THE Christians are never known to be interested in senseless holy wars but I assure you that u guys will be the losers if this conflict ever escalates into a full blown world wide religious war. Among all religions, your Islamic religion is the filthiest, bloodiest, and most primitive religion.
America should declare war on u people. Yes u do deserve to be dealt with thoroughly.
If the Arabs are strong they should declare war on Israel and we'll see who will win that one. Suicide bombing is not the best way to fight your enemy. U should be ashamed of your stupid self. Iti.
Guys, did any of u see those retards known as Palestinians celebrating in Jerusalem on TV and that ugly old woman doing whatever she was doing with her tongue. The depressing thing about this is that little children as young as 6 are out there celebrating murder and terrorism.
U bastards are all cursed and your Allah is a bastard.
Adamu the man eating Northerner is this what u were thought? Did your foolish father teach u that terrorism is a good thing? Adamumumu I’m sure he did. U bellicose murderers are training your little kids to become murderers. What a shame. U are so pathetic and it’s a shame that this type of religion exists in Africa. The devils that u are breeding will devour you sick minded animals. Shouldn’t u be worried that your children are also becoming bloodthirsty. I thought it was only the adults and teenagers but now your kids are also in the same category.
Is violence what u got to show as your accomplishments? U are pathetic and sick minded.
Are these your achievements?
1) Raping little innocent children all in the name of marriage. 2) Locking up your mothers. 3) Slaughtering people for no reason. 4) Being the most uneducated people in BiafraNigeria and the rest of Africa. 5) Walking around naked in the streets of Enugu and begging for money. 6) Urinating in kettles. 7) Oppressing your women. 8) Smacking your mothers here and there. 9) Dancing in the streets, screaming jihad and celebrating violence. 10) Being beggars. 11) Cutting off people’s limbs and arms. 12) Being the dirtiest skunks. 13) The bombing of the American embassies in East Africa and the killing of more than a thousand Black Africans. 14) Hijacking 4 airlines just to kill innocent people working to feed their families.
May the Muslims ,the devilish evil minded people be ruthlessly dealt with.
Fellow Biafrans, My brother even has a friend (a Biafran) that works in one of those buildings. He’s just waiting to hear about him. We have to be ready for bad news. People in Houston are even speculating that these Arabs terrorists could be in Houston or some other town in Texas. There’s even a report that they are in Florida.
Bastard power hungry Arabs and Muslims, They will always kill innocent people everywhere at the slightest provocation.
Adamu, The nefarious northerner were u trained to be evil? Were your people trained to be so primitive that they will always resort to violence and blood spilling as ways of confronting problems. I pity your women a lot. Look at the diseases that have been ruining their lives. U are so primitive that NOTHING can change the way u think but unfortunately for u and fortunately for the educated, peace loving Christians and non-muslims, the Americans will never allow u nasty sex starved bloodsuckers to practice your ill acts on their land. If u want to be archaic then take your backward ass back to Zamfara or whatever desert land where u come from. This is not Nigeria where you and father and brothers can rape women any time that u want and boast about it. I’m sure your family were among those who committed genocide in the North against us. Your sick relatives were the ones who raped our women and children but try it again, stupid and we’ll finish u off. Your father must have raped your mother, sisters and cousins in front of u. Who knows a sick sex offender like probably assisted him and joined in the gang rape. How sick can u be. Go to hell. You Son of a STINKING RETARDED B..CH.

People, These criminals really planned out their act very well. For them to gain access to those four planes that easy should be a reason for the US to beef up their security and stop giving people a false sense of security. Who would have known that something like this could happen? The way they planned the whole thing is shocking. I heard on the news that a crew was actually stabbed to death before the men took over the plane so they must have killed the pilots and the crew members before they were able to hijack the planes. They must have planned this for years and Bin Laden could be behind it.
