I remember that morning well. Listening to Don Imus on the radio. He and Charles mentioning that a plane had hit the World Trade Center. The initial reports said it was a small plane, likely an accident. They mentioned that MSNBC was showing live footage. I raced to the television and turned it on. I only had a few moments to take in the spectacle before a black flash, clearly an airplane, came in from the top right of the screen and slammed into the South Tower. My first full thought was that this is no accident. So began that nightmare of a day.
Have you forgotten? The anger? The pain? Perhaps we all need to remember how 9/11 felt. Perhaps we need to reopen the wound and remind ourselves of what it is we are fighting for and who we are fighting.
It is time to rejoin the fight in full. Time for all of us to begin pulling the oars once again. We are at war. Let us not forget it. Be sure to head to Michelle Malkin and The Jawa Report for more rememberences of a day that will live in infamy.
