Daily Briefing: REMEMBERING 9/11: SACRED SPACE AND TIME

 

“9/11 has already reached a space of collective oblivion that it took Pearl Harbor many more decades to reach.” — Alexander Riley

FIRST BALLOT WIN!

Pierre Poilievre Won Easily. He Can Easily Win Again.:  Chris Selley, National Post, Sept. 10, 2022 — If there’s one thing that Pierre Poilievre’s fans and detractors tend to agree on — including many within the Conservative Party of Canada, of which he easily became leader on Saturday evening; 68 per cent on the first ballot! — it’s that the gentleman is not for turning. 

Two Decades Later, the Enduring Legacy of 9/11  Hannah Hartig and Carroll Doherty, Pew Research, Sept. 2, 2021 — Americans watched in horror as the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, left nearly 3,000 people dead in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Shanksville, Pennsylvania. Nearly 20 years later, they watched in sorrow as the nation’s military mission in Afghanistan – which began less than a month after 9/11 – came to a bloody and chaotic conclusion.

2 Decades Later, 9/11 Self-Professed Mastermind Awaits Trial Associated Press, WIN, Sept. 11, 2022 — Hours before dawn on March 1, 2003, the U.S. scored its most thrilling victory yet against the plotters of the Sept. 11 attacks — the capture of a disheveled Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, hauled away by intelligence agents from a hideout in Rawalpindi, Pakistan.

Benghazi 10 years later: Survivor Reflects on Deadly Battle, Says US Hasn’t Learned From MistakesFox News, Sept. 11, 2022 A militant group attacked the United States consulate in Benghazi on Sept. 11, 2012, killing four Americans and waging an hours-long battle against CIA contractors.

Reflecting on Benghazi Attack 10 Years Later:  Fox News, Sept. 11, 2022 — Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo joined ‘Sunday Morning Futures’ to discuss the nation paying tribute to the victims of 9/11, the Benghazi terror attack, and Biden’s foreign policy.

On 9/11 We Should Also Remember the Benghazi Attack and the Planners Still At Large:  Sofrep, Sept. 11, 2022 — We should never forget 9/11 and Benghazi; the best way to remember our fallen is to act. For 9/11, the time has come to put Khalid Sheikh Mohammad (KSM) on trial and sentence him for his crimes. For Benghazi, the time has come to go after the actual terrorists who carried out the attacks in the same way we went after KSM back in 2003. Al-Qa’ida was our enemy 21 years ago, it was our enemy ten years ago, and we can’t forget that it’s still our enemy today. To keep al-Qa’ida on the run, we must take it to them.

Downtown Manhattan’s Endurance after 9/11:  Christina Ray Stanton, New York Daily News, Sept. 11, 2022 — Nine days after 9/11, my husband and I were told it was safe to return to our Financial District apartment, six blocks from the World Trade Center.

9/11 at 21: We Still Must Remember and Still Must Beware: Quin Hillyer, Washington Examiner, Sept. 11, 2022 — At some point, annual remembrances of tragic events can get old. The 21st anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks might seem like a good time to let the anniversary go unremarked — never even close to forgotten, of course, but no longer treated as a front-burner topic.
