The day before, you had watched helpless as about 3,000 of our citizens died

Just a slight clarification, not all of the victims were American citizens, at least 100 were British citizens, and there were many other foreign nationals who perished in the Twin Towers. That's why the WoT is not just our fight, it should be the world's fight.

there were many other foreign nationals who perished in the Twin Towers.

And in Madrid. And in London. And in Indonesia. And in Munich. And in Syria, Lebanon, Tel Aviv, Haifitz, Jerusalem, Cyprus, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, India, Iraq, Yemen, Libya, Scotland, Paris ...

That's why the WoT is not just our fight, it should be the world's fight.

Amen, brother.

Just FYI:

63 Muslim countries (as defined by the CIA) from Afghanistan to Zanzibar, without a single 9/11 WTC (non-hijacker) fatality.

4 Muslim countries with 9/11 WTC fatalities:
Indonesia (92% Muslim) 1 dead
Lebanon (75% Muslim) 3 dead
Nigeria (75% Muslim) 1 dead
Usbekistan (88% Muslim) 1 dead

Giving a grand total of 6 fatalities from møøselimb countries.

Just for comparison: 140 Israelis died in the rubble of the WTC...

True. The generalization was for the purpose of brevity. I recall that a number of Israelis were killed, and one of the folks on Flight 93 was a Japanese citizen.
