Yes, we have forgotten


Yes, we have forgotten.
Concerts, college football, even the Greek Fest is underway as I write this. Maybe it is just an attempt on everyone's part not to dwell on this anniversary. It might be some sort of mass defense mechanism to deal with it but it does not seem right.
Eight years later, our own government is supporting the construction of a mosque two blocks from this site. The Freedom Tower that is supposed to be built here is not completed and will simply be named World Trade Center.
The city and state of New York is not helping firefighters and policemen who risked their lives to save others with the respiratory they are suffering from. Greed on nearby Wall Street has wreaked the economy. The government gave itself new powers after the attacks and weak abroad, acts mainly against Americans.
I just going to leave with this:
"Those who fail to remember history are condemned to repeat it."
