Reaction from around the world:

Mexico

"The territory of the United States was suddenly exposed as being just as insecure as the countryside of Colombia or the cities of Palestine and Israel - the national security of the most powerful country on the planet had been completely blown apart. The electronic media... confirmed their status as instruments of planetary disinformation; a bombardment of images replaced the search for the motives behind the bombardment of the United States and, as happened a decade ago during the war against Iraq, live broadcasts of destruction helped to obscure the fundamental questions; who planned and executed these demented assaults and what did they have in mind? No-one refers to the position of advantage these tragic events will give to the hawks in the US and other countries as well. Nowhere on the casualty list appear the individual liberties and guarantees of migrant people."

DISINFORMATION-intentionally giving out information that is wrong or not accurate.

BOMBARDMENT - a heavy attack (both the real attack, and the repeated pictures in the media.)

DEMENTED - out of your mind; mad, in the worst way.

HAWKS -people (in the military, government etc) who want to respond with very strong military action.
