Anderson will be reporting live from the World Trade Center Site with new details on the terror threat that has New York and Washington on alert.

Good night Anderson, everyone and my friends!!!

Anderson,
Have a great/good night and sleep at home. Great weekend! See you on Sunday early morning 9/11 10 years anniversary and Monday night!!! Just a plenty sleep and rest at home!
Good night everyone. Have a safe weekend. Great program tonight.
Good Night Everyone! May we all have a safe and peaceful weekend while we remember our loss.
Very, very touching to hear the kids talk. So much loss and grief. They were brave to share.
What an excellent idea to show the children who were probably the Most affected of all.
It's a heart breaking piece. God bless them all – i bet All of them are and will be a tribute to our country!
I wish all the families and friends well of 9/11. May God be with all of us.
Ditto Goria, ditto.
Wow, it looks like where peaceful waters flow!
Fascinating report from Pakistan and conversation with Lawrence Wright, Anderson.
–Amazing view of Ground Zero from where you are.
I complete agree that it is important that we do not give in to fear. We must endure on everything we do,
Exactly right, Gloria...... Very important to do thing remember!
What a remarkably True statement by this gentleman about the 2 unfunded wars.
Bush et al, did Exactly what Bin Laden wanted – almost bankrupting the USA!
Our Gov' s reaction to 9/11 was a reaction based on fear And arrogance.
Great interview Anderson!
Oh boy is he right. Just what I've thought all along since 9/11. We've made some mistakes but we can get back on track. We need to stop being so reactive.
I agree Sharon. We should be Smarter (using our Brains), Not our muscle. We need to be very selective when using "muscle."
Pakistan has to do more work when its come anti terrorism
Anderson just showed two pools. This is the first I've seen this. I was always aware of just one. Elaborate.
I bet a lot of people don't know this!
I didn't know there were two pools either.
I wonder if both are commemorations for the people who expired on 9/11/01?
Yes, It is.......Starr.... There are 2 pools underground by 2 towers.......
Thanks for info, Gail...... You're so right about 2 pools.
Uniforms,i.d. & vehicles of police,fire or emergency services could be easily obtained to effect access to area, since two of the terrorists are american. It troubles me to think this, but it is true.
My heart breaks for the Syrian people.
It is also concerning that Egypt does Not want an Israli delegation in their country.
I hope they catch one suspect look like they are close
I am sure of that hope catch suspects right now, Vic!!!
Greetings everyone,
Remembering all the victims of 9/11 – we honor the lives cut short and for those suffering from the continued lost of that horrific day, the much needed comfort and strength – from day to day.
Vince, I agree with your comment, It is so sad 10 years since we lost love ones dear.... To hard for us remember the day!!!!
The first responders should be given the highest priority in their work.
I completely agree Paula. I just can't understand Why, after 10 yrs., such an Important issue has Not been taken care of!
Anderson.. Could you ask your expert guests if Authorities give consideration and weight to the possibilty that the "credible info" about a possible terror plot in New York or Washington could be to misdirect security resources?
Thanks
Tim
Good point question, Tim......
I think that they have believe 2 of citizens who lives across the U.S... We don't know where they are right now, They are investigating wether to be found 2 cities both of them.
Tim,
You can never rule out diversions – I expect that due attention would be given to ensure that hightened security goes well beyond NY/DC – as the secured and prudent approach.
I had No idea that communication issues were associated with the HOuse – it figures and explains Why nothing has been done!
I will be writing to my congressman and quite a few others who are assocated with getting the Proper communication devices to 1st responders to All cities in America!!
Everyone, please write too.
Starr,
I like the fact that you are always proactive in contacting your congressman on the issues!
Thank you Vince. It's our responsibility & right to contact our rep's & sen's & President.
Let me not be the only one.
Oh good, sounds like they have made progress in identifying one of the suspects.
Good evening everyone
this sad that Congress didn’t want allocate money to improve communication for firefighter and police
Sad true, I agree...... Congress don't want to help them as well...... I hope they will pass the bill for sure, Vic!!!!
We haven't been the same country since 9/11. We lost that feeling of security and feeling safe in the U.S. and we began fighting wars all over the place. Sparked alot of fear.
I agree Sharon. We all need to try and emulate the Greatest Generation, who grew up during the depression and then fought in WW2!
Hey BettyAnn! How are you, your family & your pets? Great to see you on the blog!!
I remains Astonished that the communication systems for the 1st responder has Still Not been solved!
I am looking forward to the report to find our what's the Holdup on matching communication between 1st responders!
Hi Starr! My family and four legged family are good! Fires are better for now. Still too dry here. Scary stuff! Thank you so much for asking! How nice :)))
We are kindred spirits Starr! xoxo
Thank you for such a kind comment, it makes me happy you think so (smile).
The surrounding looks incredibly beautiful!
Yes, it certainly does Gloria. I hope to get back to NYC one day to see it.
Yes!!!! It is so beautiful city I love!!!! Someday I would like visit there in NYC!!!!!
9/11 ihas become a day of fear. Let's not let the terrorist freak us out. Let's remain calm and get them! FYI: Fires better in TX for now
An excellent sentiment BettyAnn! Americans need to demonstrate courage at this time and in the future.
Evening Andereson & Team 360.
Hello blogger friends!
I'm praying with All of my heart that they catch the guys and the 9/11 Memorial (before & after) is peaceful.
Starr,
Yes, They are going catch these guys right away!!!!!!
Bless you Megan...you are always so positive! I admire that quality in you.
I am sure of that I am postive they will catch guys, Thanks for that! 🙂
Oh Wow!!!!! That is so depressing news for me hear breaking news that 3 suspect going scary everyone...... YIKES!
Helloooo Anderson, everyone and my friends!!!!
Thank God It's Friday Night!!!!
Couldn't wait forward this weekend!
Thanks for coming in for join us tonight!
Good evening everyone. Sounds like they don't know much more about the terror threat. I hope they find them.
