Never Forget

[DaShi]

I remember two pointless, destructive, and expensive wars, trampled civil rights by a government agency with vaguely defined authority, and heightened political divide based more on jingoism and fear than addressing real problems.

Yes, there was a short period unity before we turned on ourselves to exploit the incident for short-term political gain.

You're the biggest ******* I've ever known, bar none.

Thank you for proving my point.

I was playing civ Mp and we all kept playing, too awful to stop

A terrible event, but the greater tragedy was not the towers falling but the country's reaction to it.

What a lost oppertunity to move forward

It was weird being in Kabul in 2009 at a memorial service for three DEA guys who went down in a helicopter crash and realising we were all there because of 9/11. It really changed lives for many people.

I might add one of these guys graduated summa *** laude from the Harvard Law school. He could have been doing very well for himself stateside but he chose to serve, they were bright idealistic guys. I met many like them over there. They were people I knew, one day having a beer, doing their washing, sitting next to you at the canteen, the next day gone. Make the most of every day people.

but what about the peoples who are killed in Iraq and Afghanistan after this who can responsible for all of this.
