Jadran Kale's posting is thoughtful.  If there are martyrs in New York, by
this definition,
they are the officers and men of the fire and police departments who went
into the towers, knowing the extreme danger, and died in their work of
trying to
evacuate the victims.   The exact count of these martyrs is yet unknown.

By the definition, a martyr (literary "the witness") is a person who must
be consciouss of his or her acts. People in their WTC offices did not know
their destiny. Only one who fit the description for Sept. 11th is the
terrorist-pilot himself, but he cannot be seen for anything except for a
renegade from humanity. So, for disclaimer line, by this definition I see
no martyr here, and I wish not to upset anybody with this thread proposal.
But we can learn a lot.

Sincerely yours,
