Every year on Sept. 11th, my blood pressure hits stroke levels. It's been this way for thirteen years. I have yet to visit the site of the old World Trade Center, even though I've lived in NYC all my life. I doubt if I ever will. It's hallowed ground, a sacred, cemetery... and yet the site is continually desecrated by politics, souvenir-vendors, and crass, commercialism. I cannot come to grips with the fact that thousands of poor innocent, souls were pulverized into ash and dust. Families were torn to shreds and lives, permanently ruined. Kids were forced to grow up without fathers and mothers. I watched the videos of those inhuman, Mid-East fascists, as they danced and celebrated in the streets....while we mourned our dead. As far as I'm concerned, the Middle-East has yet to answer for this atrocity against humanity.
Mark my words...we Americans, for generations to come, will be at war with those in the Middle East who want to destroy our way of life, our values, our religious beliefs. They will never be stopped through compromise and negotiations. They are not interested in peace. They should be identified, engaged, and exterminated like the human-vermin that they are. We were forced to do it to the Nazis, and we should do it again. But, since WWII -(the last war that this country has won)- we just keep asking thousands of our young to sacrifice everything, and die for nothing... This is the ultimate symbol of a country that has lost its very foundations, its core values. A country that no longer leads, but a country that appeases. Yet, this sacrifice of our best, is exactly what we do, and we are still doing it again in the Middle-East. Remember Benghazi? Has anyone been hunted down and brought to justice, by America? Our grand, high, exalted, smartest-women-in-the-whole-world... Sec'ty-of-State Hillary Clinton screamed..."What difference does it make now"?...when asked why no one was held accountable for the death of an Ambassador and 3 other American citizens. Is this not despicable and contemptible indifference? With hubristic zeal, she'll try running for President in 2016. Hell...she may even win!
Yes, Freedom is never free. Nor should Freedom ever be held in contempt and be pimped away by emotionally-driven, ignorant voters, or by the craven politicians we have continually elected. There's far too much of both in this country.
What kind of America will our kids inherit? The final will is being written, right now...and attached, is a codicil that says...."cannot be contested".
