Editor's Note:
In the wake of Tuesday's terrorist attacks, AlterNet is trying
to make some sense of this unprecedented tragedy. We will be
providing alternative coverage of the breaking news, trying to
balance out some of the mainstream media's more egregious
assertions and errors. Please stay tuned throughout the week.

More terrorist attacks?

THE BASTARDS!
Alisa Solomon, Village Voice
"Arms, legs. Parts of people. They were falling on my head,"

account of the violence.

AMERICA'S TERRORIST ROOTS
Geov Parrish, WorkingForChange.com
As people recoil in horror at what is undeniably, well, a horror
