May We Never Forget


Today marks 21 years since the horrific 9/11 attacks on our homeland in New York, the Pentagon, and Pennsylvania.

Deaths: 2,996
(2,977 victims + 19 al-Qaeda terrorists)
Injured: 25,000

$10 billion in infrastructure and property damage.

It remains the deadliest terrorist attack in human history and the single deadliest incident for firefighters and law enforcement officers in the history of the United States, with 340[12] and 72 killed.

The hijackers successfully crashed the first two planes into the North and South Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, and the third plane into the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia. The fourth plane was intended to hit a federal government building[d] in Washington, D.C., but instead crashed down in a field outside Shanksville, Pennsylvania, following a passenger revolt that foiled the attack, [Wikipedia]

  1. Years ago, a year or two after 9/11 someone was giving out CDs in the lake worth area, like at the flea markets saying it was an inside job by the feds, it was sad and a tradgedy like Jan 6.

  5. Our weak population only celebrates defeats. VE Day came and went, with hardly a peep.

    Not to mention VJ day, which was last month, and was totally overlooked.
