Being a kid at this time and not truly understanding what just happen just seeing the horror on the tv is what I remember

Dang, I was 11 years old when bush gave this speech. I'm 33 years old now. Where has time gone

What a critical moment in history for our nation!!

I know a lot of people did not like GW Bush. But he said exactly what needed to be said here.

As critical as I am of the Bush administration, this was one of the greatest speeches to come from a sitting president. For this one moment in history there was no difference between the politicians and the American people. We were all wounded. We were all trying to make sense of what happened. We were all trying to carry on. Bush's words feel so authentic here because he's feeling the same pain all Americans felt that day. There's a humanity here that we've never seen from Trump or Biden. It makes you realize how phony politicians are. That true leadership comes when those leaders have to live through the same hardships that the normal American does.

I was born in 2004. Every time I watch the videos containing 9/11 content. I freeze in silence. Even when I was not there to witness the horrors of that day, I still feel the pain my family and many Americans have endured. We will never forget this day. May God watch over those who died on September 11th, 2001; and may he watch over those who suffered from this tragedy. God Bless America.

So much class and patriotism

I was in junior high at the time, and I vividly remember watching the news about this incident on TV around noon. I was alone at home, and I was so scared that I cried. Yes, I'm Chinese, and I was in China at the time. I felt it as if it happened to me.

My mother was working on a cruise line that passed New York before the attacks. She took pictures of the Twin Towers mere weeks before they came down. She still has that picture framed in our home. I was born only two years later, it’s insane that this was the America I came into. We still live in so much paranoia.

I remember being in gym class and our gym teacher just playing the radio broadcast playing the events as they occurred. we just sat there. the quietest we had ever been. we didn't do anything that day. The sad aura just echoed through the rest of the day, and also that year. God bless those poor souls that lost their lives that day.

I am an Indian doing my 8th grade. Remember watching this address on 12th morning our time Live even in our local news channels. 13 years later, when I landed in the US, the first place I visited was the memorial. Such was the impact even for a non-american.

That night was probably one of the most disturbing aftermaths of any tragedy in history. New York looked like a ghost town, a resounding silence in what's always been considered a never sleep city

This was emotional I was in high school when this happened. I cried during this whole speech...

I was 21 back then and saw the event live on late night news here in Melbourne Australia.

One of the greatest orations in American history.

A crazy moment in time

I was in 3rd grade, my desk next to the door. I remember the teacher across the hall opened the door and called my teacher and I overheard her say a plane crashing on top of the building I thought it was my school building and then the phone in my class rang and she rang to pick up and kept saying omg omg okay okay bye and her face was scared but maintain and told us to get up because school was going to close and we had a day off. It was like a fire drill everyone was out the building in seconds and then I saw my mom running to pick me up grabbed my hand and we ran and fast walked home and when I walked into the room I saw the TV on with a building and smoke and it hit me that it was that building not my school building. and then bam I'll remember always seeing the other plane hit. Its still so vivid in my thought and I can even dream that morning I can even see me its scary but thats just it ill always remember.

" moms and dads .. friends and neighbours " damn that hit hard ..

I was 9 years old when this happened. Still to this day I shed tears when I am reminded of this horrible, tragic day.

im beside to american people which have lose everybody the them familiary member that tragic day,that damn day,i love the american people,infact an tomorrow i would like living there❤and ,i will say a pray for everybody those poor people❤🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

What a recovery ❤

I never understood why he chose the line axis of evil. Now i know why. He was very honest

I'm not American but this makes me proud to be one

No president following bush could be taken as seriously as he was, Bush was the last president to see the country united as one, right before it was torn apart by hatred

I was 5 years old living in North Carolina at the time. We still had to evacuate even in the south!

thank you

Truly could never

does anybody know the exact date this was delivered? was it on the same day, 9/11? i'm doing a school project and i don't know if the description states the day this was addressed or simply the date of the attack.

I didn't vote for George W. Bush. In my opinion, he provided leadership and a calming steady hand. He was my President and I'm forever grateful for his resolve

damn!

Why this speach is cut???

I was 2 years old eating cereal next to my dad watching the news at 9am. It had to be one of my earliest memories I can still recall. It’s amazing how somethings stick with you even in years of your life you can’t remember at all. But even at the age of two you could feel the severity even if you really had no idea what’s happening.

I remember being evacuated from school in the 1st grade in NYC. Class had just started but the teacher left the room… she was gone for some time and came back. The kids didn’t really know what was going on. The whole school was usually noisy but that day the halls were dead silent on our way out. I remember seeing smoke fill the sky and going home scared confused but ready to fight..

Im kurdish from iran i support george bush

I remember watching this with my parents at 12 years old. My mom was so horrified from the events that happened that day, and there was a sad energy in the house. Time has passed so quickly. 😢 RIP mom, i miss you so much!!!

Of course there's ads on this.

I was 14 when I watched this live that night. It was like I was in the twilight zone.

dear sir miss is name sir cut hona chayay 6 badsha nahi etc

That's the last time we as a country stood together, loved each other and cried together ❤😢

I was 13 and I'm from the UK it was past 4pm when I heard I stayed after school for an activity and suddenly parents were ringing the school telling their kids to get home or stay there untik collected. It was awful the whole world stopped and just looked on in shock and utter horror

Nice bridge shorty

Never ask a woman her age A man, his salary George W. Bush, about the number 9 and number 11

I was 10th grade. I remember they sent us home early for the day.

Thank you so much❤

This wouldn’t happen if you simply minded your business in the Middle East. Now innocent people will take your problems 😔

😢😢😢😢😢

I was 17 years old at the time and the country was a lot more unified and united back then than today in 2024. I was very proud 🥲 to be an American 🇺🇸 back in 2001 when I became a legal adult

And where are u today, America ?

even as a german born in 2005, whenever i see those videos i freeze. truly a terrifing moment in history. solidarity to our american brothers 🇺🇸🇩🇪

I worry Americans will never be this United again.

My mom told me when I was in a abusive group home a low function boy long ago had to move in that group home due to the loss of a fireman dad on 9/11 and the mom could’ve take care of him.

I remember this vividly. Ya know many people didn't like him, but I look at his presidency fondly.

💔💔💔💔

Not that it matters, but I remember him staring at the camera for a few seconds before he started speaking.

People too young to remember this day, may not realise how big this was. Everyone around the world now expected an imminent attack. Even here in Australia. We lost our sense of innocence and safety. Nowhere felt safe.

Walked in on my first day of 8th grade and thought they were watching a action movie smh

The day the world changed but not for the better 😢

👁 sure was

He knew everything!!!

I was in high school that morning. I remember for the first half hour or so, the general consensus was that there was a terrible accident. No one could conceive it was deliberate. That just wasn’t on anyone’s radar. Then the second plane happened on live tv and it changed everything. I remember the months following that day, how united everyone was. Sad to see what has become of us now. More divided than ever.

I was in the 9th grade when this happened. I was watching the news with my mother before school. I remember my physics teacher being flabbergasted that our country had been attacked by terrorists.

That extraordinary face he does since the aftermath of 9/11 makes him look apprehensive, worried, paranoid and quite emotional as such

Bush will always be the most memorable president to me just because of 9/11.

God bless USA, from Italy with love

'God bless America 🇺🇸❤ 'They couldn't take our foundation of America President George Bush ❤

The last good president we had. It was also a few years later our nation became divided more than ever before and has yet to come back together.

I actually missed this on TV

Boa noite 🌃

My Dad was on a business trip in America at the time. Luckily he was in California at the time.

0:10 The way he blinks indicates that he is lying

This is a clip they cut the end off which is bullshit bc this is history

And a year and a half later, he lied to us about Iraq. What a great guy

Merry Christmas father

My heart broke that day. I knew no one involved, yet my heart continues to bleed for every person murdered that day and their families. My they rest in the arms of the Lord forever .

I was an 18-year-old kid when it happened. I loved Bush's response. We were rightfully angry. Unfortunately, I and many others did not realize what this meant and that, moving forward, the larger threat to freedom would not be from the terrorists, but from our own federal government. History always repeats. The response to these events was exactly what the terrorists wanted - less freedom, less autonomy, and constant surveillance by our own leaders. Throughout history, events like this have always been used to stifle freedom and grow the power of a select few. I was just too ignorant and emotional to realize it at the time. The answer to anything is never more control, less freedom, and emotional responses. We learned that the hard way.

Felt like I was watching a sponsor for a Final Destination movie stuff was mortifying.

What's the purpose of this posting 2 months ago again?

Something seems off..

I was 20 years old when this happened. I was in class when the first plane hit. A lot of people in America did not like George W Bush. But he said the exactly what needed to be said on that day.

It’s scary how much Bush sounds like Charles Manson

I miss you

Take me away father

And how would Joe react ?

🙏 "friends and neighbors" sad.

Notice how he's blinking

Resten peace Jeff

If one is to use war then military operation bounce 100 is the one and only operation that shall be used on any other categorizational citizens of the entire planet. This speech might be okay to some but so far off scientifically in all reality.

دعوای حلقه هاست ......جورج بوش بزرگ،11septamr

Wow good morning wow

😢😢😢😢

Existence is always

that day even north korea send regard to usa. literally everyone was in fear.

Классный парень Джордж Буш младший.

Your attention blew up😮

As a kid I was happy we got a free week of school with nothing to do because the teachers were all just stuck on the news from the moments the planes went in as I got older I realized how sad this all truly was and a historical moment I’ll never forget I was in school in Odessa Tx 5 blocks away from the home George Bush Grew up in
