hi,
i’m sitting in the airport in bogota waiting to get on a plane to santiago via ecuador.
and it’s september 11th, my birthday, but also the anniversary of the worst terrorist attack in u.s history.
at present there’s a memorial service going on at ground zero.
i don’t want to sound negative or depressing, but we can’t let ourselves forget what happened on september 11th.
terrorists hi-jacked planes and killed thousands of completely innocent people and changed our world forever.
without september 11th george bush would’ve been a one term president and we would never have invaded afghanistan or iraq.
without september 11th the thousands of innocents who were killed on that day would now be eating breakfast with their families.
nothing in the last 30 years has affected our world more than what happened in new york and washington on september 11th, 2001.
so we can’t let ourselves forget that thousands of innocent people were killed by murderous terrorists, and that the geo-political realities that we all confront and live with day to day were changed forever.
