There is a lot of commentary about the fifth anniversary of 9/11, especially the politics of it. Less is best when the jarring images of the day ---smoke billowing from the towers, New Yorkers crying in the streets, debris falling from the darkened sky---dominated US television and newspapers.

James Natchwey
As always it is the personal tragedies that need to be remembered. Silence is a powerful way to remember.
