9/11

A great people has been moved to defend a great nation. Terrorist attacks
can shake the foundations of our biggest buildings, but they cannot
touch the foundation of America. These acts shattered steel, but they
cannot dent the steel of American resolve. America was targeted for
attack because we're the brightest beacon for freedom and opportunity
in the world. And no one will keep that light from shining.
President George W. Bush
September 11, 2001



I know most of you don't need reminding, but we should never forget the events of September 11th, 2001. Never forget the people whose lives were lost, or the people that were forever made heroes in the eyes of every American. The men and women who sacrificed seeing their families one last time to re-enter a building they knew was doomed. They forgot their mortal bodies and decided in an instant that something needed to be done, and they did it. It is for them, and those that died that we must, as American Citizens, forever remind ourselves and those around us of the sacrifice that all Americans made that day, a day that forever changed the face of the greatest Nation ever. We must also never forget why it happened and those that did it, for there will come a time when we must speak out, as leaders and ordinary citizens, against an evil so great that it allows their followers to take the lives of 3,000 innocent men, women and children in the highest glory it has to offer. We must never forget. We must never forgive.
