Today is the 12th anniversary of one of the worst acts of war perpetrated against America and Americans in the history of the United States.
On this day 12 years ago just under 3,000 people were slaughtered on American soil. They were slaughtered by Islamists acting in the name of Islam.
The Islamists used box-cutters to hijack passenger planes and turn them into gigantic flying bombs. Nineteen Islamists were responsible for the carnage, destruction and death, which was on a par with Pearl Harbor, another horrific act of war perpetrated against America and Americans.
Americans must mourn the victims of the 9/11 attack and honor their memory but they must do much more than that if the United States is to survive as a free country.
They must recognize and understand that Islam and Islamists are at war with the U.S., that they want nothing more than to turn the U.S. into an Islamic country governed by Islamic law, that they have made deep inroads into the fabric of the country in all places and at all levels and are making more and more every day at the expense of American freedom, values and institutions and that the United States will be lost to Islam and Islamists unless they wake up and rid themselves of these mortal enemies in their midst.
The lesson Americans must learn from 9/11 and its aftermath is really very clear...the message is really very simple.
Unless Americans fight and overcome Islam and Islamists in their country they will lose their country to Islam and Islamists.
Let’s hope that they learn the lesson and get the message in time to save themselves and the country.
To save the free world too because the free world cannot possibly survive if America doesn’t.
To all those who died on 9/11...Rest in Peace.
God Bless America.
That’s God.
Not Allah.
