REMEMBERING SEPTEMBER 11,2001 17 YEARS AFTER
Seventeen (17) years ago today on the morning of September 11,2001 planes crashed both towers of the New York City World Trade Center.It is believed that the actions were orchestrated by Osama Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda. Many members of the US congress label this a terrorist attack committed by a bunch of cowards. Cowards-most members of the US Congress never served in the military.I don't know of any of those who served in the military who were engaged in actual combat.With these members of Congress they have no problem with spending over 700 billion dollars on defense.Unlike when the question comes up about the US acting like all other western nations by providing universal health care for all their citizens;the US Congress does not say "where will we get the money". When questions of defense spending arise there is no push back and no debate.Further, when these soldiers leave the military and return to the USA many commit suicide or wind up homeless while these members of Congress refuse to provide any support for them.In other words they are expendable once they serve their purpose the government throws them under the bus. You know one fact Americans seem to disregard is that those people who perpetrated the acts of September 11 put their lives on the line.So tell me who is a bigger coward. The perpetrators of September 11 or someone sitting behind a desk in Nevada guiding a drone in another part of the world so he can dislodge a bomb that would kill many small children.Who is the bigger coward? Terrorist attack-Yes most Americans consider the actions of September 11 to be a terrorist attack. But there are others who believe Americans brought September 11 upon themselves.The believe September 11 was blow back. Fast forward 17 years Al-Qaeda rebrands itself as Al-Nusra and the US now supports them in an effort to overthrow the legitimate government of Syria.That must be comforting for the victims of the September 11 attacks to know that their government is using their tax dollars to support the murderers of their loved ones.The Syrian government now has Al-Nusra surrounded.The US is outraged at the humanitarian crisis that might result from a Syrian offensive.That is a joke,America who just last month in Yemen aided Saudi Arabia in bombing a school bus that resulted in the death of over 40 small children.The USA is one of the last countries to be concerned about a humanitarian crisis.That accusation is just laughable. Then Russia is alleging Al-Nusra will stage a false flag chemical attack,blame it on Syria to bring the USA into the conflict.John Bolton says Al-Nusra would never do something like that.I guess they only attack the World Trade Center and the Pentagon and don't stage false flag attacks. In another development today the ICC (International Criminal Court) is investigating the USA for War Crimes. See:https://www.dw.com/en/us-threatens-to-arrest-icc-judges-over-war-crimes-probe/a-45435900 In retaliation the USA says they will not co-operate with the ICC and Washington will sanction and prosecute ICC judges who open an investigation into US war crimes committeed by the USA. I remember once reading the greatest threat to peace and stability in the world is not Russia,it is not China, it is not Syria,it is not Iran,it is not North Korea,it is not ISIL,it is not Al-Nusra,it is not Al-Qaeda,it is the USA.
