Twenty Years ago I was the Active Duty Manager for a Texas Air National Guard Special Operations Weather Flight. – I had just gotten back to the office from our Ops Group weekly meeting. I heard on the radio that there had been an explosion at the World Trade Center. I remember the last explosion and wondered if it was another Terrorist bombing. I went down to storage and pulled out a small TV from one of the Team kits. I had it set up and tuned in just in time to see the second plane hit live on TV. I called the Boss at his job and said “We are at war” He had been watching as well and we started discussing plans for the next two weeks. I hung up that call and started the Recall Roster… I notified my unit members to tell their employers to prepare for their absence, and to pack their bags, triple check their gear, and prepare their families. I then called AFSOC and notified them that all unit members are accounted for and prepared for 72 hour deployment as required. My first team went out the door in December 2001, our unit had at least one person deployed in support of OEF and OIF from 2001 until I was medically retired in 2010. While I was in Kabul in 2003 the backstabbing POS that I voted for in 2000 changed the ROE to handcuff the Heroes who won the war, and installed Islam as the government of Afghanistan, AND started the purge of our military leadership to install the Pro-Islam brigade that runs it today. I was NOT surprised when bush voted for Hillary or when he voted for biden. We as a Nation have forgotten 911… The proof is that we have actual Terrorist sympathizers elected to congress, AND We have a Dictator that actually said for the record that he is losing patience with Law Abiding American Citizens, And we haven’t Tarred and Feathered him and Strung up those who are controlling him.
MSG, I was in DC (just outside, MD) when it went down, about to say Mass, which I did. Then a gang of journalists, good ones..., descended on the manse and there we were.
And I won't rant, but bush deserves it. As for the dementia ridden fool passing himself off as the CIC. Well, I can't print what I want to say. But hey, have a look at the dignified tribute at Windsor Castle. I found that helped.
Amen.

We as a Nation HAVE FORGOTTEN 911
Just Imagine a World WITHOUT Islam.
Then and only then can we forget 911
Paul and Kid, let's pray it doesn't happen again.
