I'd like to request two things:

  1. A moment of silence for those who were so cruelly slaughtered four years ago today, and
  2. All of you let your loved ones know how much they mean to you. On this day, there are thousands who would give anything just to hug that one person who was taken from them four years ago.

And that's all I have to say.

As for me and my family, we will NEVER forget! I am sick of all the pathetic PC crap regarding Islam being "the religion of peace". It is not. Even though 10% at most are involved in jihad, the majority of the other 90% of Islam's "mind slaves" support the jihadists.

This website breaks down the Q'uran and the Hadiths. A must read. I found this site about 6 months ago. Intense reading.

Good post! However, it seems to me that my country has changed for the worse. Where is the rage? When I was just a boy, Japan bombed Pearl Harbor. To this day I remember clearly how Americans, including many of my cousins and uncles, rushed to stand in line to enlist. We were a proud angry nation back then. It wasn't long before our enemies learned to dread the vengeance of the "sleeping giant" they had awakened.

The atrocity of 9-11 was, if anything, worse than Pearl Harbor. Yet the outcry is fading, as "remember Pearl Harbor " never did. In less than four years, our enemies no longer had the capability to make war. Their cities were destroyed, and their populations were almost decimated. We had effectively targeted anything that could supply weapons to be used against us, with no compunction about "innocent bystanders" or "collateral damage".
Now that we are faced with the prospect of a reign of terror, courtesy of the "religion of peace", we seem to value world opinion more highly than our lives, our families, and our great nation. Our enemy fells safe from retaliation because they have no great cities and industrial complexes that produce their weapons. Instead, they have mosques and families to produce their "shehadeen" . The producers of these "martyrs" receive compensation for their efforts. they feel safe to continue the production of these monstrous "weapons".

Where is the rage we felt (or should have felt) four years ago? After Pearl Harbor our rage allowed us to fire-bomb Cologne, Hamburg, Tokyo, and other enemy population centers. We obliterated Hiroshima and Nagasaki because American lives were more imortant than any others. Is there any doubt about what these Islamic monsters would do to us, if they can?

Something has been lost from our national spirit during the sixty years after WWII. It seems to be more important to be "liked" by the world, a world which envies our wealth and freedom. They feel that we should be "taken down a notch". They know that we are gracious victors, but do not love us for that. They are also confident that we will not strike out in a blind, reflex response, that will dwarf the devastation inflicted upon us.
Once we publically declare that the next atrocity committed against us will result in a great tragedy for Islam - although we may not enjoy being forced to do it - Muslims may not be willing to pay such a price for their Jihad. The knowledge that they too can be made to pay a high price when atrocities are committed in their name, will make them more willing to take action against the terrorists among them!
It is very likely that we can do nothing to make them love us, but we can certainly teach them to fear us, and that is the raison d'etre for our military might.

Whew! I don't usually write much (keyboard challenged), but I feel better getting that off my chest.

The tears are streaming down my face as I write.

God Bless all the victims of 9/11, their families, as well as the brave men and women who have fought and died to prevent another 9/11 from happening on these shores. Pray for them Lord and please God Bless America. Amen.

This is a war we must win and the enemy is Muslim - they want us dead - not out of the way - just dead.
