9-11 SIX YEARS LATER.....
While looking for a photo for this entry, I saw many pics. Many of them were beautiful tributes to the trade towers. Many having the image of the towers standing tall and proud. Many were pictures of the two lights that stood as a temporary monument, that shot two wonderful beams of light straight up into the air. And it was lovely.
Many of the tributes had captions along side the beautiful pictures that stated
"WE WILL NEVER FORGET."
As I thought about which tribute picture I would choose, I thought about those lovely pictures with that caption of:"we will never forget". I think that that is what we say to lull us into a sleep. To lull us into....forgetting.
The lovely picture tributes.
The lovely captions.
With that, we have indeed forgotten.
SO I chose a more appropriate picture. A picture that is not a fluffy tribute of two buildings pre 9-11 standing tall. Or of two radiant beams of light: post 9-11.
I chose an image of the day itself.
9-11
Specifically a news paper front page.
this should be the image that we have. This should be the image that has the caption "WE WILL NEVER FORGET" plastered across it.
It is more accurate. It is more appropriate. It is reality.
There are those that have said, We are not in a war. There is no such thing as a war against terrorism. There are those that want you to be lulled to sleep. There are those that want you to believe that WE are the bad ones. That THIS country is the enemy.
Sadly, those that would like you to believe that, are in fact themselves....americans.
(in name only)
Dennis Kuscinich is in Syria, (SYRIA!!)trashing his own country.
Jimmy Carter displays his hatred of jews and Israel and his sympathies of and for Terrorist states.
Nancy Pelosi also travels to Syria to cozy up to Hezbollah.
DICK durbin slanders the troops..
Countless examples.
In this day, Keep this in mind.
ONE party (democrats/leftists) wants you to be lulled to sleep. To forget that evil exists and/or convince you that the only evil that does exist is THIS country.
and...
ONE party (Conservatives/Republicans) want to fight terrorism-and kill it.
To go on the offensive.
To stand up and face off against those that are wanting to kill women and children.
To recognize that REAL evil exists, and to fight against it.
To fight for freedom, to fight for the innocent. To fight for liberty. To fight for a better world.
In short.
One party that truly believes the term...
WE WILL NEVER FORGET.
The choice is clear.
