Had lunch today with a group from the 'hood. Old friends that spent a lot of time together. Nice to see them. But, as a group, we recalled the tragedy of the double bombing of the World Trade Center in New York City. Soon, the site will be restored to world prominence with a replacement building and a memorial. Among the 3000+ victims of the Saudi terrorists were the 343 firemen from New York City who responded to the awful events that culminated in the collapse of both structures, killing all the innocent civilians.
This was the evil work of fanatics, of which the world was reminded only in the last few weeks that a number of them are alive and well in the Middle East sowing hatred and death in their path. Until such time as the rest of the Arab world can unite against evil, they will continue their insane path of murder and destruction.
We here in America remember, and we will not forget, ever.
