Let's Remember Pearl Harbor...And That's It?

By Dave Gibson (01/07/06)

It has now been four years since this nation suffered the ultimate sucker-punch, which was responsible for the largest loss of civilian life on any one day in United States history. However, it would seem that more Americans remember the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor than remember the 9/11 attacks. Gone for the most part are the flags on every house and the determination in every heart. Also gone is the resolve to make this country and this world a better place.

The days shortly following the horrific 9-11 attacks were amongst the ones that have made me most proud to be an American. Though those were dark days--they gave all of us a sense of not only patriotism but resolve. Sadly, that resolve has all but disappeared.However, the citizenry is only following their leaders...Our civilians were targeted by the Muslim thugs and our government responded with surgical, politically-correct strikes. We waited too long to respond and when we did, it was in a rather anemic fashion.

In fact, our men are still fighting and dying on a daily basis in both Afghanistan and Iraq. President Bush has decided to fight a politically-correct, antiseptic war, rather than deal properly with those who hate us so and whose greatest wish is to kill Americans.
