This morning the United States of America marked the seventh anniversary of the 9-11 attack on our country, our people, and our freedom. It’s been a few years since I touched on this, but I felt compelled today to reiterate that the perpetrators of this barbarous act against everything good we stand for were cowardly, gutless, sac-less, spineless, dog-molesters who are presently writhing in an afterlife of pure, unimaginable pain… devoid of virgins.
I read today that Europe isn’t in agreement on who perpetrated the attack 7 years ago… with some saying the United States set it up, and others blaming Israel for masterminding the act. All hail the mighty European education system. Let there be no doubt that if the politically correct pansies in Europe and the US had their way, we’d all be offering our infidel children up to be sacrificed to Allah in the name of tolerance.
And today I get to fly from California to New York. I get to be wanded, poked, and prodded. I get to remove my shoes… because they could be bombs. I get to pack toiletries in my checked luggage, rather than my carry-on’s, because my cologne and body gel could be bombs. I get to watch all ages and all genders of law-abiding, lifelong United States citizens get treated as if they were Muslim males aged 18-35 traveling on temporary visas and acting twitchy. May God have mercy on all our souls.
I, for one, would rather initiate flurries of high-velocity lead than let myself forget what happened, or forget that we’re always at war… whether politically, spiritually, or militarily. May God deal with us be it ever so severely if we ever forget… and may God bless the USA.
I'm a Christ-follower, compelled by my faith toward reason, which points directly toward conservatism. This world's daily onslaught of lunacy offends my intellect and senses, so this is my venue to blow off steam.
I like it! thanks…..:))
Great post and picture. We have been watching footage all day. I remember David was just glued to the TV all day. The older child remembers it well. The younger one doesn’t. He was an infant at the time. He is watching this raptly. I am sure there are people who would criticize me for letting an eight year old watch stuff like this, but I think he needs to know. He was expressing some desires to do something to their rearends with guns.
I have an essay up on my blog today about this day. Usually I put up a few stupid things along with something serious, but I just couldn’t do the humor thing today. If I can figure
Oh, just so you know: I make a point of not giving the kids names online. Thats why I call them kid one or kid two. Or boy or girl. It creeps me out when people blog about their kids.
I’m glad people are still remembering. Seven years has dulled the shock and outrage. And then people start to forget. They don’t forget as much as the importance of the event doesn’t register with them anymore. It’s a very sad cycle. I hope that the younger people have passion for history. Then they will look back to the battles at Tours, Constantinople, Grenada, Vienna, and New York. When they look, they will realize the Christian world has been at war with the extremist Muslims since the two worlds collided. Maybe then, people will realize that we need to do everything we can to win this war.
the daughter is taking world history this semester. They are on the ancient world now. I guess they are doing Sparta on Monday (daughter just knows some wiseguy will yell out “We are Sparta” during the class) Anyway, on Thursday, they watched the History channel footage of 9/11 during class. I was thrilled until she told me it was only because another class had to play catch up and the teacher wanted them to be in the same place at the same time. ACK!!!
On another note: then we have the conspiracy theories. Do not even get me going on these fruitcakes….
This is one of the most interesting pictures I’ve seen so far for remembering the twin towers. I remember the day when it happened… even hearing the suggestion that it was the USA or Israel that masterminded the whole thing makes me mad. It is quite amazing how a large portion of the world aligns itself together with the terrorists. What has this world come to?
Well its must be a minority of europeans who belives that it was setup be any others than terrorists. You to be a freak like Micahel Moore, to belive the either U.S. goverment, Israel or what ever mind spin he produces, set this attack up.
9-11 will new be forgotten..
I love the picture!
