The events of 9/11 must not be forgotten because the consequences are still revolving around the world today.

The events that took place on September 11, 2001, were the most important of our generation, possibly the most important of our lifetimes and certainly since the bombing of Pearl Harbor and the Second World War. But they will definitely not be the crime of the century. There is much more to come, although hopefully not in my lifetime.

For over a decade, we have been told on every news program, every radio bulletin, in speeches, statements and announcements, front-page stories, magazine articles, government policy announcements, and by every government official throughout the west that the world has changed. And we have to react with it.

We are told that 9/11 has changed the course of our domestic and foreign policy. (It certainly has) Our civil liberties must be amended with the changing times. Those responsible and their allies must be hunted down and punished, however loosely connected they are, regardless of the cost, either in human or financial measure.

The event must not be forgotten. It should dominate debate, both public and private. We must reconfigure, adapt, refocus, reprioritize, and come together as one, with our allies, to defend our freedoms and liberties.

And we should do everything we can to make sure it never happens again. And that means we must rely on the elected policy makers, who are advised by experts with minds immeasurably greater than ours. And then do as we are told and pay for it.

Some of this, of course, is true. We do face a great threat from Islam and some of its followers, millions of its followers actually. Let there be no misunderstanding here that some of them intend to destroy us.
