Mr Ahern announced in Dublin that all Government offices would be closed. A Government spokesman said: "We hope people in the retail and commercial sector will close their businesses as well." The arrangements were discussed today at a cabinet meeting. Yesterday the Taoiseach Mr Ahern described the series of attacks which destroyed the World Trade Center and damaged the Pentagon as the worst act of terror anyone could imagine. Thousands of people are feared dead. Mr Ahern spoke of his horror after breaking off talks yesterday morning with the US special adviser on Northern Ireland, Mr Richard Haass, and newly appointed US ambassador to Ireland, Mr Richard Egan. "At this time our thoughts are with the families of the victims in their mourning and we offer our deep and heartfelt condolences to President Bush and the American people," said Mr Ahern. He offered his "heartfelt condolences" to "President Bush, the American people both in this country and back in the United States" for what he called "a terrible day in world terrorism". He described the attack as "a terrible and horrendous atrocity which every right thinking person in the world will condemn". The President, Mrs Mary McAleese also expressed her shock at the terrorist attacks in the US. She described the attacks as "crimes against the very foundations of all our humanity". Mrs McAleese said the terrorists would "be the winners" if they succeeded in changing the open way of life in the US and in civilised democracies. She said: "It is simply unbelievable to be actually witnessing such wanton destruction of human life unfolding right in front of our very eyes. "It's not just a crime against the American people, it's not just a crime against the American civilisation. It's a crime against the very foundations of all our humanity.
