This week marked 22 years since radical Islamic terrorists attacked the United States on Sept. 11, 2001, killing 2,977 innocent people. We must never forget the events of that day, who carried them out and why.
Our freedom threatened the terrorists. They targeted the centers of our political and economic power: Washington and New York. They wanted to strike terror in the hearts of Americans.
Every student in high school and most in college who participate were born after Sept. 11, 2001. Our obligation is to educate them about what happened that day, those behind the attack and why they chose to target America. That anyone would object to the placement of 2,977 American flags to commemorate the lives of each of the innocent victims of the 9/11 attacks is a vivid reminder we have so much work to do to protect our freedom in the United States. It is why President Biden’s absence from any of the Sept. 11 memorials this year is an absolute disgrace to the American people.
Instead, it seems like Mr. Biden himself demanded our troops be gone by the end of August 2021. That forced them to draw down and choose between guarding Bagram Airfield or the U.S. Embassy in Kabul.
