For Sept 12
First a moment of silence for today. But tomorrow we need to move forward.
Liberty doesn’t start with limited government and individual rights – these are the product of a specific cultural evolution having its genesis in Ancient Greece and reaching the summit of philosophical maturity in the Anglo-American Enlightenment. Today civilization is weakened by a cultural disintegration and threatened by theocratic barbarians. Only a rational reality-based philosophy can secure liberty on a proper foundation.

I'm certainly not wallowing in self-pity. Then, again, I don't know a single person who perished on 9/11.
So how do I feel? Angry! It's righteous anger. And righteous anger is what's needed--especially on the part of the leaders of the Western world.
I never want to see another 9/11, and I want justice done. Justice means, in part, exposing the threat of Islam and naming the enemy instead of tiptoeing around and calling this war "The War on Terror."
Jason,
I forgot to say that Ledeen's article is excellent. Like him, I'm even angrier today than I was five years ago. The dhimbulbs really launch me!
Yeah - what AOW said.
Quite a few immigrants like Joon Koo Kang died in the attacks, as well as foreigners here on business.
It really was a World Trade Center. All of humanity was attacked on that day...
In case you havent heard:
You may have noticed that the main site for 2996 has gone down, due to the extremely high volume of traffic this project generated. Mirror sites have been put up that show the list of names and links. If you can, please change your link to the list to one of the following site:

It’s a heartening to see the feeling is shared. As I was saying my peace (as they used to say in Westerns) I came across Ledeen’s article and was overjoyed that he already got the point across to a wider audience.
