Too fucking bad. Watch it anyway. And remember why we are where we are.
Watch it anyway because a pussy of a mayor in NYC thinks it's "too dangerous" for the families to gather and read the names today. Too dangerous to light the twin lights tonight.
Watch it anyway for all the souls who had by now given their last goodbye kiss. The last hug to their children. Seen their last sunset. Eaten their last meal. Maybe the eggs and ham or short stack w/ sausage at The Skydive Restaurant. Spaghetti and meatballs with the family the night before. A baloney sandwich hastily over the kitchen counter.
Heard their last song.
Watch it anyway because they rushed out late for work, too much in a hurry for a proper goodbye. Didn't want to wake sleeping toddlers before heading out. Maybe looking forward to a quiet romantic getaway that weekend.
Watch it anyway because
"But grandpop was going to come to my soccer game Saturday"
"But me and grandmom were going to have a tea party"
"It was a stupid argument and I never got to say I was sorry"
Watch it anyway because
"But daddy was going to take me to the Yankees game and we were going to have hot dogs and popcorn and soda and maybe even catch a foul ball"
"But we were planning a big surprise party for mommies' birthday and all her friends and relatives were going to come and I was even going to help bake her a cake"
"He was going to retire next year and we were going to get an RV and tour the country"
"We were planning on moving to Norfolk to be closer to the grandkids"
"Today was our anniversary"
"But today is my 8th birthday party"
Watch it anyway for the 40 brave desperate determined souls who saved the Capitol and Congress by dying in a field in rural Pennsylvania. Saved a Congress many who even today disrespects their sacrifice. Refers to it as "some things happened."
GODDAMMIT WATCH IT ANYWAY because those names you will not hear the families read this year "because it's too dangerous" all have a story attached to them.
Watch it anyway because they can't and because we never should have had to in the first place.
Watch it anyway because it could have been
and had Bin Laden and Zawahiri had their way would have been
you and your family not able to read your name this year
Watch it anyway because no matter what you think or believe it is still not over.
11 I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.
12 For man also knoweth not his time: as the fishes that are taken in an evil net, and as the birds that are caught in the snare; so are the sons of men snared in an evil time, when it falleth suddenly upon them.

Great post, MR!

A few short months ago, if somebody had told me that any mayor of NYC would have done such a thing, I'd have said, "No way!"
Yet, here we are -- and the mayor is trying to "cancel culture" on 9/11.
God bless Tunnel 2 Towers for not allowing De Blasio to get away with doing this completely.
And, while our focus here at IBA has changed quite a bit, we team members KNOW that jihad continues even today.
The first thing on my mind today as I opened my eyes at 5:00 AM this morning, was "Nineteen years. A entire generation doesn't understand what 9/11 means." Means, not meant.
Why does the Democrat establishment hate America?
The last image with the man - has always been the most haunting for me. About 200 people took the leap from the building as the flames closed in on them.
DeBlasio is a political cretin. But I like to remember that behind the scenes, our government is hard at work to keep us in the land of the living today.

God Bless America - and the Americans who are still willing to die for her.
I was a New Yorker for 13 of the best years of my life which means I will always be a New Yorker, and my heart breaks again at these images every 9/11.
What these animals did in the name of their god.
Thanks, MR.
