9-11: In Memory of ALL of Our Dead and Wounded

Today is the 14th anniversary of the 9-11 attacks. Somber ceremonies are being held in New York, Washington, and many other sites around the country in memory of the people who were murdered on this date in 2001. It is important to remember the 2,977 innocent victims of the 9-11 atrocity and to grieve with their survivors. The trauma of that terrible spectacle should never be forgotten nor should any of the tragedies that followed.

The governments of Iraq and Afghanistan had absolutely nothing to do with the 9-11 attacks that are now officially blamed on a Saudi-Egyptian terror team. It is well documented that the U.S. invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan were being planned more than a year prior to the 9-11 attacks by George W. Bush's defense policy advisors, including Dick Cheney. The 9-11 attacks were an excuse for aggression that was already in the works. Every official justification for these invasions put forward by Washington was a deliberate official Lie.

How it can be that the nation seems to have forgotten that more than twice as many brave young Americans died for nothing in Afghanistan and Iraq than were killed on 9-11? Each and every one of the 6,853 American troops killed in those wars is dead as the direct result of an official Lie. How is it that the bi-partisan gang of politicians who sent these patriotic young men and women to their doom have not been brought to account?

Today the names of those who died 14 years ago today in New York, Washington, and Pennsylvania will be solemnly recited, one after another. Where are the ceremonies reciting the names of the brave young Americans who died for nothing in the U.S. invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan? That list of innocent and brave dead is more than twice as long as the list being read today.

Nor is that by any means all.

How many Americans have any idea that more than 1 million brave young Americans have been wounded, many of them grievously, in support of Washington's Iraq and Afghanistan Lie? How is it that the establishment press never reports those numbers?

Each airing of a "Wounded Warrior Project" commercial should generate absolute fury in the hearts of every American. The elected officials who lied us into these wars are directly and criminally responsible for the tragic life-changing injuries sustained by these patriotic young men and women. Have these murderous and maiming war criminals (and that is what they are under the Nuremberg standard) been held accountable? No, in their contemptuous arrogance they continue to bask in the limelight, sneering at public apathy and ignorance even as they push for new wars of aggression in pursuit of their insane dreams of Empire.

The magnitude and scope of the catastrophe that this bipartisan gang of power-mad lunatics has wrought continues to expand exponentially. As this is written, Europe is being overrun by people fleeing their planned campaign of serial aggressions, a campaign that now stretches from Libya to Iraq to the Ukraine. Europe is simply the latest casualty. If you doubt that such an official campaign exists, by all means please download and read Rebuilding America's Defenses, a "report" commissioned by Dick Cheney and delivered in September, 2000, two months before the Presidential Election and one year before the attacks of 9-11. Repeatedly citing the existence of Saddam Hussein's regime and the entire list of "regime change" targets as justification, this Blue Print for American policy advocated the imposition of U.S. mandates around the world to establish a de facto American Empire. Page 63 contains the following provocative and very interesting sentence.
"Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event-like a new Pearl Harbor."
The attack of 9-11 provided that "catalyzing event". It was shortly followed by the invasion of Iraq which, as President Bush's inner circle knew full well, had absolutely no involvement in the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks. That is the smoking gun and the entire world is about to reap the full consequences of Washington's treachery.
