Its now 9/11....This is just a reminder in case any one who reads this forgot the significance of this day. Its been 12 years since the Pentagon, World Trade Center and Flight 93 were attacked by 15 Saudi Nationals, 2 from the UAE, 1 Egyptian and 1 from Lebanon. 3000 American lives were lost. Three thousand....Twice as many wounded, two wars fought and millions of lives touched....yet how quickly we forget. It has also been one year since the attacks on the embassy in Benghazi, Libya. An attack that lasted hours and though lives could have been saved, they were not due to political reasons that go beyond my understanding.....yet how quickly we forget. There is great danger in forgiving an enemy who has no intention of forgiving you. You can remove yourself as far as possible from the reality of the world we live in, but you cannot escape the consequences of that reality. Put whatever name on it you want, we are still at war. Never forget.
