The other evening, I was sitting in a park with my daughter, and suddenly a fighter jet came roaring over our heads. It had been scrambled to fly a mission above Disneyland. I watched as it circled several times.
This was a regular occurrence in the couple years after 9/11. I got very used to the roar of fighter jets over Disneyland, over ballgames, and over my offices in Burbank near the movie studios.
I got used to being told to clear our of the office because there had been report of a possible attack.
But, in recent years, things have, seemingly, calmed down, and I haven't heard the roar of fighter jets for quite some time.
But, have things really calmed down? No, they have not. Not in the least.
Just in the past few weeks, we have seen a homeless Muslim man check into a posh hotel with a pound of cyanide. For what purpose we will never know, because the guy ended up dead, thank God, before he could put his poison to use.
We have seen an Egyptian man build and test an unmanned drone, on Long Island, NY, capable of carrying a 600 lb. payload of chemical/biological weapons.
We have seen men convicted in the UK for trying to kill the Queen and members of the Royal Family.
We have seen a man chanting Allah Akbar on a Philadelphia subway train, as he methodically showed his three year old boy how to kill Infidel pigs, by burying a hammer in the head of his victim.
Additionally, as we know, Iran is speeding along to their goal; creating the Apocalypse so that the Mahdi (Isamic Messiah) will return to establish Islam througout the Earth.
So, we can not forget, because, while we have avoided another 9/11, it isn't for lack of trying on the part of the followers of Allah.
They would still like nothing better than to kill us, to sacrifice us to their bloodthirsty god.
We can not forget because they keep reminding us.

SHARIA IS SEDITION - EXPEL JIHADIS FROM OUR COUNTRY!

Nearly nightly since 9/11 (you can set your watch to it) an A-10 flys overhead. During the day the often pair of them flying overhead. Patrolling, I guess, we live near a nuke plant. Damn Right Never Forget. Damn Right Never Forget. And Damn them for forcing us to adopt these postures.
Damn them is right.
This is a ridicuous way to live, especially when over half the world doesn't even believe we were attacked by Jihadists, and our own citizenry isn't even aware we are at war.
One thing that HAS changed since 9-11 is the effectiveness of the official counterterrorists, and that is a very good thing. A LOT of plots have been foiled. They haven't stopped plotting, but we have become a harder target to attack.
I just added our IBA Motto to the bottom of this post.
I may start putting it at the bottom of many of our posts.
Repetition is the soul of branding.
I know I'll never forget. Seems like just the other day. It never goes away.
Maybe the bow and scrape-tards should face up to the harsh realities and lessons of that day before squealing that we ought to just move on and get over it.
I'd rather chew glass than dwell for one instant in their insipid little make-believe reality where it's always our fault and nothing really matters anyway.
Hey Obie, this election is all about the economy and the poor abused middle class don't you know. And don't forget about the poor abused middle class and the economy as well. Yes that's what it's definitely about, and for sure if you'll only say it often enough.

Frank - you are a weak apologist. This author knows about super secret CIA missions that even most of Congress doesn't know about? Really? The US provoked these animals by being the land of the free and not a Sharia state. That's the heart of it. The rest is just noise.
Well said, Anonymous. I dub thee MythBuster the Giant.
There.
Frank's b.s. is gone forever. He is not welcome here.
