This day's legacy is written in large fonts with the spirit and lives of all survivors, who prove these terrorists lost even as they try to strike US again.

Seeing the live coverage of 9/11 memorial on ground zero, brings back tender details of NYC, USA and the entire World's loss. The sound of falling water grows louder... WE MUST NEVER FORGET.

A decade later, humanity gathers and shares recollections about what that day has meant for us as a city, a nation, a country and a people.

My old friend and colleague, Martin Bell is one of the best-known and most highly regarded British broadcast journalists.

New York City's sudden beefed-up security measures, just ahead of the 10th anniversary of 9/11 has some questioning the heightened terror threat.

Investigators also say that specific and credible information about a supposed plan apparently involves three veteran terrorists - one, or two possibly holding US passports.
