Never Forget
This was an act of war:
There are some who say it is insensitive to show these images. That it's too early for movies like United 93 and World Trade Center. I was not in New York or Pennsylvania that day, so I was not an eyewitness. But the tragedy was, and is, shared by all Americans. The rest of the world paid us lip service, giving platitudes like, "We are all Americans now." Shortly thereafter, however, it was back to business as usual, blaming us for all the world's ills. So much for solidarity.
As George Santayana said, "Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it." We begin by remembering.
Others remembering today: Mrs. Media Matters, Moonbattery, Mein Blogovault, Lifelike Pundits, Brainster, Geosciblog, In The Right Place, Tinkerty Tonk, And You Thought You Were Cranky?
Michelle Malkin has several excellent posts in remembrance of the day.

Those pictures should be etched in our memories forever. They are in mine. Thanks for the link!
