Never Forget
It’s been seven years since the terrorist attacks on a bright blue September 11 morning.
On this day we bear witness to the human beings whose lives were taken in a fiery act of jihad: the people in the airplanes, the people in the towers and in the Pentagon, the people who were forced to make a terrible choice between burning alive and jumping out into space toward the hard ground below.
We haven’t forgotten their sacrifices, or the hateful ideology that drove their murderers.
And although their capacity to harm us has been diminished, the killers continue to plot.
