I had to read it to believe it myself.

Various news sources:

Washington Post
http://www.washingtonpost.com/...1/AR2005083100450.html (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/08/31/AR2005083100450.html)

Hindustan Times
http://www.hindustantimes.com/...1_1477566,00050004.htm (http://www.hindustantimes.com/news/181_1477566,00050004.htm)

Reuters-UK
http://olympics.reuters.com/ne...DST_0_NEWS-IRAQ-DC.XML (http://olympics.reuters.com/news/newsArticle.aspx?type=topNews&storyID=2005-08-31T135023Z_01_DIT131351_RTRIDST_0_NEWS-IRAQ-DC.XML)

It makes me wonder, just what kind of power fear of terrorism alone has nowadays? Could anyone see this happeneing in America, or is it a facet of the continual exposure to daily attacks that the Iraqi civilians suffer

damn..... thats amazing. wrong, disturbing, but amazing. i think if someone shouted that there was a suicide bomber here in a crowd, people would freak out here (in america) too.

Yeah something like that happened at the mall around my house. It's one of the biggest in the east coast, 6 floors, and up until a year ago it was sinking and falling apart, you can still feel the ground shake during busy hours. Someone said there was a bomb in the mall and the whole place had to be evacuated, good thing no one got hurt though.

I can see that happening. All 600 made fun of Yzak.

But seriously, this is fucked up.

Quite sad, really. Seeing how the tension was high, who could blame them?

Wow, this topic turned into a shit-fest on Terracosmo... I'm glad so many have decided to have an actually intiligent discussion on this incredible psycho-social phenomenon that is incredibly telling of the times we live in and the indirect effects of US foreign policy in the Middle East.

Seriously guys, great work, keep up the lively discussion!

it wasn't fear that killed them. It was the running and pushing and jumping. Fear just made them do that.

I did, and I was gonna post something like:

"It's not my fault that I'm on your mind all day long, fanboys!!!111"

But then I didn't for some reason. Maybe I was lazy.

Oh wait... I just did :S
