  >From a famous french journalist :
  Jean-Marie COLOMBANI, directeur du "Monde" le 12/09/01:

  "Dans ce moment tragique où les mots paraissent si pauvres pour dire le choc
  In this tragic moment when words are too poor to tell of the shock that one feels, the first thing that comes to the spirit is this:  We are all Americans.
  que l'on ressent, la première chose qui vient à l'esprit est celle-ci : nous
  sommes tous Américains! Nous sommes tous New-Yorkais, aussi sûrement que
  We are all New Yorkers, as surely as when John Kennedy declared himself, in 1963 in Berlin, a Berliner.  How can we not feel, in these most grave moments in our history, a profound solidarity with the people of the United States.
  John Kennedy se déclarait, en 1963 à Berlin, Berlinois. Comment ne pas se
  sentir en effet, comme dans les moments les plus graves de notre histoire,
  profondément solidaires de ce peuple et de ce pays, les Etats-Unis, dont
  nous sommes si proches et à qui nous devons la liberté, et donc notre
  solidarité."
