For the many people where were sent to the hospital.

For the many people who died in the airplanes.

I pray for the people who survived and for the military if we go into war. For the people, their families, and relatives they lost. For George Bush and the People a the World Trade Center who died and who risked their lives jumping off the building, the Pentagon who died and the people at the airplanes.
