What We Still Must Learn from 9-11
Americans remembered the 25th anniversary of 9-11 last week with both mourning and hope.
Thankfully there have no more major attacks on US soil since 2001. But in naming it a “War on Terror,” we failed to clearly define the nations and religion that attacked our civilization.
Thus we’re still fighting Iran today.
Here’s the best perspective I’ve read on what we still must learn from 9-11.
Will Americans Make the Sacrifice to Change the World?
The War with Iran has been just over three months. Forty days were spent eliminating the evil leaders of the Islamic Republic, the Iranian air defenses, navy, ballistic missile sites, and renewed efforts to produce an atomic bomb.
A fragile ceasefire continues as we negotiate an end to the conflict.
We stand at an historic “hinge of history” in the Middle East and the world. Will we as Americans be willing to sacrifice short term to liberate the Iranian people?
The Justice of Ending the War Iran Started
Best-selling author Peter Schweitzer said this week that the USA didn’t start the war with Iran. We are ending the war Iran started with us and the world 47 years ago.
That’s exactly right.
When in 1979 Ayatollah Khomeini plunged the Persian people into medieval darkness, held 52 Americans hostages for 444 days, started funding terrorist movements across the Middle East, and began to chant daily “Death to America,” the Iran Islamic Republic began a war we are now finishing.
It is just to oppose and defeat evil. Here’s why.
