Twenty years ago - on the morning of September 11, 2001 - four American commercial airliners were hijacked by al-Qaeda militant Islamic terrorists.
Two of the planes deliberately crashed into the twin towers of the World Trade Center in lower Manhattan. Another plane targeted the west side of the Pentagon. The fourth plane had planned to target Washington D.C. - either the White House or the U.S. Capitol - but when passengers attempted to overtake the hijackers, the plane crashed in Shanksville, Pennsylvania and all on board were killed.
On this fateful day - one of the most tragic in American history - there were 2977 fatalities and over 25,000 injuries.
The one positive aspect of this horrific atrocity was that it inspired all Americans to unite in an intense surge of patriotism. For a few blessed days, despite our different political views, we came together as one massive force of heartfelt pride in our country.
In twenty years....
Perhaps the greatest tragedy of all is how drastically our country has changed for the worst - in that short span of twenty years.
Patriots are despised. Those who love our country are vilified. Our history is being expunged and re-written by Marxist liberals in order to perpetuate lies and evoke an anti-American agenda. Statues of Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, Columbus, Robert E. Lee are being taken down and replaced with monuments to George Floyd - a lifetime criminal and druggie who held a loaded gun to a pregnant woman's stomach.
Schools, military bases, and parks are being re-named to obliterate the American heroes for which they were initially named.
The police are being defunded and all members of law enforcement are degraded and despised.
Our nation has become infiltrated with a WOKE epidemic. The once proud and macho military is being castrated. All Caucasians are now labeled as racists and white supremacists. School children are being taught to hate America and to discount themselves for being white.
The American flag and National Anthem are being excoriated. Athletes are proudly "taking the knee" and defiantly displaying their hatred for our country.
President Donald Trump - a true patriot who loves our country - was continually and mercilessly ridiculed and despised. The biased, liberal news media successfully brainwashed their viewers into hating him with outrageous lies and relentless propaganda.
We now have Biden - a weak, clueless, senile puppet "leader" - cunningly installed by devious ploys.
Ironically.
bitterly ironically......
he ended the twenty-year war against terrorism by letting the terrorists win. He handed a military and political victory to our enemies the Taliban - who have close ties to al-Qaeda.
They now control Afghanistan (and all the innocent Americans who are still trapped there).
They have control of our Afghan embassy and air base - and they have 85 billion dollars worth of our weapons, military vehicles, and aircraft.
Thanks to our worthless faux leader, the Taliban not only have these American gifts, they now have the power to humiliate us by calling all the shots. They no longer fear us.
China, Russia, and the rest of the world are watching our downfall and laughing.
In twenty years our once-great nation has fallen pathetically far from grace. We are buried in the rubble.
