Terrorism
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.
Pray for the Fall of the Islamic State and Freedom for Iran
The war against the Iran jihadists is going amazingly well, but it’s a difficult task solely from the “air” in a nation of 92 million people and land mass twice the size of Texas.
But it’s crucial to Middle East and global peace and the future of the Iranian people.
I’m praying for President Trump, Benjamin Netanyahu, and others for wisdom and courage to complete the mission.
Here’s why.
Freedom for Iran
I vividly remember the Islamic Revolution of 1979 when Ayatollah Khomeini returned to Iran and brought with him the darkness of theocratic evil.
Though the Shah (Mohammad Reza Pahlavi) was no saint, before the mullahs took over, Iran and Israel were America’s closest allies in the Middle East. You read that right. Closest allies.
Now forty-seven years later, the protests by the Iranian people against their authoritarian government just might usher in a rebirth of the nation–and increased peace in the Middle East.
Pray for freedom for the Persian people -and how the USA might help.
