Just Three Thoughts on the 25th Anniversary of 9/11

This thought below is my {Diane Sori) thought alone, and does not necessarily represent the views of blogspot.or google.com 

[[[ First, at the beginning of the victims name calling, Terry Strada...who lost her husband Tom Strada on that most horrific of days...gave a short but powerful speech asking, ""How can it be 25 years and still we have no justice for the role that Saudi Arabia played in your murder?" How right she is, but I think I know why...OPEC oil control. Remember, Saudi Arabia is and always has been OPEC's dominant defacto leader. Put the pieces together and the why becomes obvious.

[[[ Second, America-defaming NYC Mayor Zohan Manidani and the infamous AOC (Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez...should never been allowed to set foot on America's sacred ground. Why so...because these two (imo) disrespectful pieces of human garbage were caught on camera laughing and making jokes as the 9/11 victims names were being read. They should have been immediately removed from the premises, and I truly hope their actions and show of disrespect comes back to bite them ten-fold.

  

[[[ And third, a rare PR opportunity was missed by President Trump to show, at least for this one day, bipartisanship. Why so...because by President Trump choosing to go to the Pentagon Memorial instead of being at "Ground Zero" and sitting alongside our four remaining living presidents...coupled with his sending quite unpopular JD Vance in his place...showed a mistake on his part. And when in his 9/11 speech he brought up Iran (albeit briefly)...I guess Trump didn't get or read the message that this day was to be about honoring the victims and the heroes of 9/11 and not about Iran...his speech in general was not bad. But I did expect more from Trump than what we got...maybe he should study the videos of the great Ronald Reagan and pick up some of his oratory skills. Just saying.]]]

Op-ed: 

Remembering 9/11...25-Years Later

By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor

This opinion piece is my opinion alone, and does not necessarily represent the views of blogspot.or google.com  

Today we remember the worst terrorist attack ever perpetrated upon American soil. Today we honor the over 3,000 innocent lives lost. Today we also honor America's first responders...our brave police officers, fire fighters, our military, and ordinary citizens...the heroes who ran into danger not away from it. And today we must also honor New York City's then Mayor Rudy Giuliani...forever "America's Mayor"...for his leadership in helping to unitie us all together as not only New Yorkers, but with those killed at Shanksville PA, and at the Pentagon on that ever fateful day.

 

Today I put politics aside...today I truly hope bipartisanship shows who we, as Americans, really are...a people united together as one...for at least this one day.

 

Never must we Forgive...Never must we Forget...for if we do it surely will happen again. Today my thoughts and prayers are with the victims, their families, their friends, and with my beloved America...may she forever remain the "Home of the Free and the Land of the Brave." 

 

And as I post every 9/11, here is my photo album: The True Horror of 9/11 / Declassified 9/11 Photos, and the one time only played Budweiser Clydesdales commercial that I consider in its simplicity to be one of the greatest 9/11 tributes ever.. 

 

May God Bless America today, tomorrow, and always.

Just a Thought

[[[ So now Trump is pledging a 5K "payout" to every U.S. adult if...and notice the word 'if'...Republicans win the midterms (as in both the House and Senate) so he can "finish the job." However, I see this as his trying to buy votes...making this maneuver as bad as the Democrats promising "free stuff" to illegals in exchange for their votes.

This is NOT...in my opinion...a "little incentive" as Trump and those orbiting around him call it...it would take a lot more than 5K to fix the financial crisis many more Americans than not find themselves in today. Simply, a 5K what I call "bribe" cannot undo all of Trump's broken economic promises or even help to win a war we are still far from winning. And by the way, whomever dreamed up this PR stunt has made a mockery of our Constitution and our already problematic election system. ]]]

NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch blasts 9/11 revisionists blurring lines between heroes and terrorists

Amanda Woods and Matt Troutman / NEW YORK POS 

NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch pointedly called Wednesday for “moral clarity” ahead of the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks — decrying those blurring the lines between heroes and terrorists.

Tisch made the remarks alongside a stone-faced Mayor Zohran Mamdani as they unveiled a new 9/11 Memorial Wall at One Police Plaza.

The wall — which includes 469 new names, commemorating NYPD members who have died of 9/11-related illnesses — preserves the unfathomable devastation from the attack on the World Trade Center towers and the heroism in response, Tisch said.

“Preserving that history also means preserving its moral clarity,” she said.

Iran attacks US base in Jordan, ships in Strait of Hormuz

Iran fired ballistic missiles at a base used by U.S. forces in Jordan and attacked ships in the Strait of Hormuz as fighting with American forces escalated. A U.S. official told Fox News the missile attack in Jordan was “ineffective” and all American forces there are accounted for.

WHAT TO KNOW

• Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned that the U.S. will continue targeting Iranian oil tankers in response to ongoing attacks on American naval ships.

• Iran fired at Jordan, using cluster munitions, a U.S. official told Fox News national security correspondent Jennifer Griffin after U.S. forces disabled five Iranian oil tankers on Tuesday.

• A U.S. official told Fox News that Iran's attack on U.S. forces in Jordan was "ineffective" and all U.S. personnel in the country were accounted for.

[[[ So now just reported on FOX's "Outnumbered"... and I heard this with my own ears...the White House (aka Trump} is "floating the idea" of PAYING...YES PAYING...parents to stay home to raise their children!

Nothing like creating yet another generation of those deeming themselves to be "entitled" to government freebies and handouts under his misplaced guise of creating "traditional families, and raising the American birth rate." This is sick and unconscionable, and will destroy the the time honored "American work ethic" completely, and in a way is a form of "socialism," and an overt ploy by Trump to buy votes for both the midterm and 202!8 elections.

Trump has now completely lost his mind...in my opinion...and when you add in his bumbling and mismanagement of the Iran war, his what was stolen from Reagan "MAGA" slogan has been completely negated and made a mockery of. ]]]

‘If you boycott Israel, we boycott you’: Florida Rep. Fine warns UK of consequences - interview

In an interview with 'the Post,' he said Britain’s trajectory should serve as a “warning sign” for the United States on immigration and social integration.

Amichai Stein / THE JERUSALEM POST

The United Kingdom’s recent decision to impose sanctions on Israeli settlements and individuals in the West Bank is a “disgusting” political calculation that could lead to the bankruptcy of major British companies, Florida Rep. Randy Fine (R) warned in an interview with The Jerusalem Post.

Fine, a leading voice in Florida’s pro-Israel legislative efforts, reacted sharply to the UK’s shift in policy, attributing the move to internal British demographics and a “desperate effort” to court specific voter blocs.

“I think it’s disgusting, and I think it shows the risk of the mass Islamification of Western societies,” Fine said. “This is a political calculation. They let all of these people in – who hate Britain – and now they’re catering to them for votes.”

He added that the UK’s trajectory serves as a “warning sign” to the United States regarding immigration and social integration.
