The Tenth Anniversary

9-11 is a "Where were you?" day.  A day that so affected this nation that everyone who was alive at the time will forever remember where they were and what they were doing.  Like Pearl Harbor and the Kennedy and King assassinations it is a day that will live forever in our memories.

There is something that I don't understand about the remembrances though.  Since typing is uncomfortable with the cast I have spent more time watching TV.  I've watched hour after hour of television devoted to remembering 9-11 and not once have I heard the words Muslim or Islam.  Not one single time.

70 years later even the revisionists who claim the US is a nation of murderers for Hiroshima and Nagasaki admit the it was the Japanese who attacked Pearl Harbor.  That it was the Germans who invaded Poland.  The names James Earl Ray, Jack Ruby, Lee Harvey Oswald and Sirhan Sirhan have not been forgotten. Thousands of years later it is still well known that the Visigoths sacked Rome. 

And yet in only ten years political correctness has made it mandatory to gloss over the fact that the deaths of thousands on 9-11 was orchestrated by Muslims on a religious jihad.  Whether or not you believe that Islam is a "Religion of Peace" and has merely been hijacked by hundreds of thousands of radicals does not change the facts behind the killings on 9-11. 

How have we allowed this?  We, the people of the strongest, proudest, and best nation in the world?  And what would the heroes of Flight 93 think?
