Footnote 26. is a dead link. Besides this, there is no mention of this newsartcle on the ARD Homepage. I think ist is fake and should be deleted and so should the paragraph which refers to the footnote. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.127.115.146 (talk) 18:23, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

The archive page for the TV report moved to a new location; I updated the link. The Panorama/Das Erste investigation found exactly what's stated and attributed in the article, and what was also reported at the time by Der Spiegel (an additional source which I added): that the celebrations in Jerusalem were isolated in a largely quiet street, and that the woman shown in the footage claimed later that she was offered cake to celebrate. Both Der Spiegel (Germany's most widely circulated weekly news magazine) and Das Erste (Germany's second largest public broadcaster) are reliable sources. Unfortunately the video link to the ARD report is no longer available, but the text is. If the reports are accurate, it's still possible that some individuals who were incited to celebrate knew what they were celebrating, of course.--Eloquence* 22:12, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
I believe extra content can be derived from the following source - [1]. JaakobouChalk Talk 10:14, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Question: Where is the blood donation content and why was it removed? JaakobouChalk Talk 10:19, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
There is something I do not understand. THe article claims that "the woman seen cheering (Nawal Abdel Fatah) stated afterwards that she was offered cake if she celebrated on camera", while "The Independent" quotes her when she is quoted saying: "America is the head of the snake; America always stands by Israel in its war against us" [2]. I wonder which story is the correct one.Jeff5102 (talk) 11:33, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
If you admit that "quotes and attribution often get mangled and confused as they pass through the news media" why would you keep that sentence in at all? This is very revealing of the contriving that is going on to make this article PC, i.e. overly protective of the Muslim reaction. It is such a strange thing to do. Pointing out positive reaction from the Muslim world does not imply that every Muslim was glad it happened. But to ignore the source of this attack is to alter reality and protect a group that treats women like chattel, etc. --User:Susan.dicey.k (talk) 14:15, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

BREAKING NEWS: Mexico is a Western country, just like the rest of Latin America. It shouldn't be under "Rest of the World" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.80.183.230 (talk) 16:11, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
I think we should add the Israeli reaction in more detail. Netanyahu, the former prime minister, replied: “It's very good.” Then he edited himself: “Well, not very good, but it will generate immediate sympathy.” Many viewed that as disrespectful given the tragedy [3] BrotherSulayman (talk) 12:49, 2 May 2011 (UTC) ion
Talk about distorting, "BrotherSulayman". Netanyahu said "very good" and then edited him when asked HOW THE ATTACKS WOULD AFFECT THE US-ISRAEL RELATIONS. Some people are just seeking ways to delegitimise Israel at every possibility. Sheesh... Jewnited (talk) 18:40, 17 November 2015 (UTC)
so cuba, mexico and israel are part of western world, interesting. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kasmanis (talk • contribs) 05:28, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
Israel could arguably be placed into the "western world' but Cuba, most certainly not. Cuba is a dictatorship and does not share the same values as the West such as democracy and freedoms. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.24.242.242 (talk) 16:54, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
I'm sure this is just Ann Coulter being her usual idiot self, but she claims there were pro-attack celebrations by Muslims in the US. Any actual evidence of this? --TheTruthiness (talk) 00:27, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

How come this article does not mention anything about Canada's reaction to September 11? Canada has done more than any other nation during these events. EelamStyleZ // TALK 02:09, 4 April 2014 (UTC)
Citation 9 doesn't seem to mention anything about Australia's response to 9/11. It's a New York Times article about Kevin Rudd's victory. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.251.198.150 (talk) 03:02, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
Turkey is not an islamic country, Turkey is a secular country therefore it should be included in the Rest of the world section — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.101.76.193 (talk) 00:16, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
What is defining the Western World on this article? Bulgaria in 2001 was not in the European Union, so I don't see why it is in the Western World while also former Communist, also Orthodox Ukraine is in "rest of the world" '''tAD''' (talk) 23:28, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to 3 external links on Reactions to the September 11 attacks. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add ((cbignore))
after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add ((nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot))
to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at ((Sourcecheck))
).

The external link for this quote, "North Korea: A spokesperson for the North Korean Foreign Ministry in Pyongyang was quoted by the state-run news agency KCNA as saying: "The very regretful and tragic incident reminds it once again of the gravity of terrorism. As a UN member, the DPRK is opposed to all forms of terrorism and whatever support to it... and this stance will remain unchanged." is not working. Neither can I find any other references or links to this statement. It might be advisable to remove it. 205.155.225.1 (talk) 23:59, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
How does one know that she is lighting a candle in memory of 9/11 alone .she may just be lighting a candle for some other purpose WP:OR.Now I can show a picture of any women lighting a candle and saying that it 9/11 or an earthquake or anything.Erikshah (talk) 02:32, 29 September 2017 (UTC)
@David J Johnson:, The article does not mention or give reference about any celebration in any place other than Palestine; and some leaders' expressing happiness is not celebration, is it? KachaleMouferferee (talk) 16:11, 1 February 2018 (UTC)
Pinging admins; not needed anymore-- Would one of you please settle this dispute in accordance with WP:Third_opinion? Based on which policy or guideline does this user revert the edit (the reverted edit was adding a picture with reference) and states that "We don't need [the] same image (which has been reverted before) on two articles."? I want an administrator to judge over this dispute for neutral dispute resolution. Thanks. If you don't want to provide the third opinion, please ask an administrator who is interested in doing so to do the job. Thanks a lot. KachaleMouferferee (talk) 15:49, 4 February 2018 (UTC)
hi,
I have noticed that a few people have been trying to politicize this page and direct attention towards the arab israeli conflict. Some users have deliberately tried to make a political statement by showing every other country in the muslim world as c ondemning the attacks execept for the Palestinian one, and listing it as 'Palestinians' with no flag. I am not taking sides in the arab israeli conflict but I wanted to point this disruptive editing out

Sources 7 and 8 require some sort of subscription to access the website (ProQuest), so I've added the verification needed template to that area. If someone is able to find an alternative source that would be very appreciated, especially as I somewhat doubt the authenticity of those claims.
I recall in September 2001 you had to hop on train of the War, or your point got removed. The term "leftist" was not used, it bluntly was: war or shut up. Mr. Bush Jr. had the desired answers ready and the 30 years of prelude - at that time known in the educated coastal areas - ceased to exist. I can't say if people changed in the days of 11 to 13 September. They disappeared from the media.--77.173.226.152 (talk) 23:00, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
The section on Taiwan's reaction ends with a nonsense sentence fragment: "It also stated that Bush's proclamation that the U.S. would do 'whatever it took to help Taiwan defend herself.'" Additionally, the sources cited for the Taiwan reaction do not state that Taiwan made any comment about U.S. support for Taiwan. The sentence fragment should be removed from the article. 61.216.137.191 (talk) 00:29, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
As you may know, "Reactions" sectors or columns, or even pages, and especially their list format and flags, are despised by many editors as unencyclopedic quotefarms sourced to primary sources such as Twitter, news channels, etc. Also, Every major Office holder and politician have mourned the death. Thus, this "Reactions" page should be trimmed from the Wikipedia Encyclopedia. 2401:4900:44C1:CA63:B62:3931:3073:5F34 (talk) 07:09, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
According to this book, on page 87, "Colombian President Andres Pastrana attended a Mass at the presidential palace in Bogota and invited all Colombians to observe a minute of prayer to coincide with a prayer service in the National Cathedral of Washington."
