Each year on this day, I've written something about that day. There is only so much one can share about your memories of the day without becoming maudlin and repetitive. Besides, my memories of the day are now intertwined with the smells and sights that came after, when I was in NYC being driven around to meetings by a member of New York City's Finest. To this day, when I see photographs of that day, they bring up the smell of baked lime and and the faint whiff of burnt sweet pork; and, the feel of that fine gray ash/grit that was everywhere. Today, I plan to avoid the drek on television and the mindless bits of pseudo-intellectual mental masturbation that are the approved inclusive multi-cultural "celebrations" of the day. Frankly, the mental midgets pushing that, er, stuff can stuff it as far as I am concerned. I do not forget, I will not move on, and I will not embrace my enemy. We were not attacked because we were arrogant or otherwise deserving. We were attacked because a group of homicidal mysogonistic throwbacks to the dark ages can't stand that we are not them and that the world is not theirs. Period. Dot. There is no negotiating with such, there is no turning the other cheek, there is no compromise. They will not stop until the world is theirs and the way they want it, or they are dead. That simple fact is one far too many are unwilling and unable to face. On this 9-11, I will be out with Standing for the Fallen, honoring and remembering those lost this day ten years ago, and those who have died in defense of liberty, this country, and the classical values that are Western civilization, our civilization. Those that have died since also have died for all other civilizations and beliefs that are not islamofacism. Through the stand, we will be collecting to help Soldiers' Angels Germany and the wounded that go there. Doing something good, positive, and constructive for those fighting to protect us. It is my honor and priviledge to join the stand and support it. On this day, remember the attack, the more than 3,000 who were murdered as a result of the unprovoked and unjustifiable assault. Honor them. Let not what happened be lost. LW
