When the planes flew into the World Trade Center towers, almost 3,000 people were killed. Some died instantly; others jumped out of windows; still others suffered for days before their lives ended.
This was a horrific tragedy by anyone's definition. It should never be forgotten.
Also to be remembered: the George W. Bush administration used this deadly event as an excuse to start a war in the Middle East it had been itching to begin for a long time. Saudi Arabia, which furnished 15 of the 19 terrorists, was let off the hook.
Instead, Iraq was attacked. Dick Cheney's company, Halliburton, made a fortune on the war. Colin Powell was the mouthpiece for the war in which thousands were killed for no reason. George W. Bush, who froze while reading My Pet Goat to elementary school students, was hailed as a hero and re-elected in a landslide.
During the Trump administration, Donald Trump's son-in-law took over $2,000,000,000 from Saudi Arabia, and for what reason we have yet to find out.
Donald Trump, the twice-impeached, four-times arrested and indicted, convicted sexual predator who a judge proclaimed a rapist, lied about "losing hundreds of friends" on 9/11, and claimed to see televised Muslims dancing in the street in celebration, despite no such footage existing.
As if that wasn't enough, he claimed he was in the streets that day helping clean up after the attack. Again, with every news agency and hundreds of film crews, no such evidence exists.
Worse yet, he bragged that now he owns the tallest building in New York City when he called into WWOR Channel 9.
This guy is running again for president of the United States.
