Have You Forgotten 9-11?

A BUZZFLASH READER COMMENTARY

Whenever many of us question Bush's leadership, the necessity of the Iraq war or the direction of the war on terrorism we, are invariably asked, "Have you forgotten 9-11?"

Americans will never forget 9-11, and many of us have images seared on our memories of that day and the following days that REQUIRE us to question the administrations actions since 9-11.

I will never forget that Bush was warned in August 2001 that Al Qaeda was planning a major attack, but did nothing.

I will never forget that after being informed of the second Tower being hit, Bush sat in a classroom in Florida for twenty minutes while people were dying in New York and did nothing.

I will never forget that both towers could have been cleared after the first plane hit if Bush had issued orders based on the warnings he'd gotten the previous month.

I will never forget that no planes were scrambled to protect New York or Washington even though the FAA and NORAD knew within minutes that four planes had been hijacked.

I will never forget that days after 9-11, members of the Saudi royal family and the Bin Laden family without being questioned were allowed to leave a locked-down America.

I will never forget that no 9-11 air traffic controllers have ever been interviewed by our supposedly free press.

I will never forget the testimony of Colleen Rowley.

I will never forget that NO ONE has lost his job or been held responsible for the failures of 9-11.

I will never forget that 9-11 widow Ellen Mariani has bravely filed a lawsuit against Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and Ashcroft under the RICO act and her press conference was not covered by any major US media outlets, newspapers or TV news.

No, I will never forget what happened on 9-11
