"Mr President, ten years ago yesterday, 2 983 innocent people died in the horrific attack on the New York World Trade Center. This led to a huge outpouring of sympathy for the United States throughout the world.
The attack was motivated by a fanatical hatred of everything western by the Muslims. Muslim leader Osama Bin Laden saw the attack as the stark holy war, the destruction of the West and worldwide Islamic domination throughout.
The response by President Bush was a crusade: a crusade, a war on terrorism, the invasion of Afghanistan in search of Bin Laden, the invasion of Iraq in search of non-existent weapons of mass destruction. The atrocities carried out, the number of killings, turned the world, which was pro-America, and pro-American sentiment into anti-United States condemnation.
Let us hope that yesterday’s ceremonies will renew all our determination to move forward, to build bridges, hope that peoples’ uprisings across North Africa will change the outcome and hope, last but by no means least, that any change that happens will come from within and not from the outside."@en1
