This past Saturday marked the 20th Anniversary commemorating the 9/11 tragedy, which Muslim terrorists wound up hijacking four (4) commercial planes out of Boston’s Logan Airport, crashing two of them into each of the Twin Towers of the then-World Trade Center in New York City, one of them into the Pentagon military headquarters building in Washington D.C., and the final one crashed in the community of Shanksville PA, after a number of passengers scuffled with the hijackers before crashing into its appointed target, which reportedly was the White House.
Approximately 3000 Americans were killed on the day between New York City, Pennsylvania, and Washington. Every year since September 9, 2001, a handful of media outlets continue to honor the memories of those who passed away on that fateful day. Many of them screaming out the credo, “Never Forget”, with the belief and hope something like this will NEVER happen again in the United States.
Also, what caught probably most American citizens totally off-guard on the 9/11 tragedy, it’s been quite a while since a foreign adversary ever successfully attacked our country here in the continental United States. I mean there have been attacks overseas on U.S. Embassies, military bases, and ships at sea, but never really on U.S. soil. This one hit a little too close to home.
Unfortunately, what has been just about totally forgotten here, deep within the past two decades, is what the creator of this particular Meme referred to as, “the America of 9/12”. More specifically, the immediate days, weeks, and months following this extremely tragic national incident back in 2001.
Personally, I’ve served in the Air Force with two years of that stint in the Philippines, and at no time in my life was I ever more “prouder to be an American” than about the six month span following 9/11. As the individual(s) who created this Meme so beautifully pointed out, at that particular time it didn’t matter if you were upper class or lower class, Democrat or Republican, Christian or Jewish, Black or White — suddenly, like nothing else before it, we were all, AMERICANS !!!
Un – BLEEPIN – believable !!!
What’s especially pathetic from that period about 6-7 months immediately following 9/11, it seemed like everybody and his brother had an American flag flying from their home, lawn, on a tee shirt, or maybe on a bumper sticker. Call it a sudden surge of Nationalism, or Patriotism but what the heck’s wrong with that?
Unfortunately, what the hell has happened to the USA since the 9/11 tragedy ??? Pro athletes, and Olympic athletes refuse to stand at attention during the playing of our National Anthem. Caucasian Americans are now being referred to as “White Supremacist” according to new U.S. historic doctrine known as ‘Critical Race Theory’, also according to the same CRT doctrine non Black citizens owe ALL Black citizens “Reparations” for having had their ancestors serve as Slaves approximately 200 years ago in the USA.
Unfortunately, the 20th Anniversary commemorating 9/11 was severely marred by a 20-year war in the Middle East (Afghanistan) that didn’t quite end to the Americans’ liking. About 13 U.S. military members were killed in a bombing outside one of the major airports, approximately a couple hundred U.S. civilians and Afghan allies were left “STRANDED” in Afghanistan AFTER the entire U.S. military had left that country, and oh yeah, an estimated $85 billion worth of U.S.. military equipment and weaponry was simply left behind and subsequently seized by the Muslim Taliban AFTER all our military troops had departed the country.
Bottom Line: It sure sounds more like a U.S. defeat as opposed to a U.S. victory, and according to most of the latest polls, more Americans DEFINITELY feel more unsafe now from being attacked by a foreign adversary than they did in 2001. Gee, I wonder why?
My recent guest on, ‘Frankly Speaking’ was Robert Burns (nicknamed, The Poet) of Bedford NH, who’s a 2022 Republican candidate for U.S. Congress, New Hampshire Congressional District 2, (NH-2). This interview took place in the Access Nashua studio on Aug. 25, 2021.
Burns, who has been active in several previous Republican campaigns, is currently stumping NH early to help build his financial campaign war chest. After he explained his background and why he wanted to serve as a U.S. Rep, we discussed numerous issues regarding items NH residents definitely wanted to know about as to where various candidates stood.
We started talking about the “issues” beginning with Critical Race Theory, and Cancel Culture. We went from that to talking about President Joe Biden’s stance on how the American military exited Afghanistan, and hypothetically, if the Republicans regained both the Senate and the House of Reps next year in 2022, would he help push Biden to be Impeached from the Presidency?
Should the Democrats maintain its majority in Congress next year, we talked about the potential of “stacking” the U.S. Supreme Court from nine Justices to 13. As well as the possibility of making both Washington D.C., and the territory of Puerto Rico “States” and thus, increasing the number of Reps and Senators in Congress.
We talked about the possibility of regulating “Big Tech” (Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and Google) putting them all on the same plateau with newspapers, TV stations, etc., when it comes to censoring, and libel lawsuits.
Lastly, we talked a little bit about the Insurrection attack on the Capitol building this past January 6th, as well as the Black Lives Matters protests in the major U.S. cities in the summer of 2020.
