My father, WWII combat Army medic, was a pipefitter on the twin towers. I will always remember going to work with him one day as a kid. After the USMC, I went to business meetings of my own there. I thought they would be around forever.

I was in Philadelphia on that morning. I had fallen asleep in the hotel and woke up to watch the second plane fly into the second tower. The trainer assigned to my install was in the air flying in from FL, her flight was diverted to SC. Driving to the work site was surreal, the streets of City Center were empty. A lot has changed and not in a good way. What I've learned is that career politicians and bureaucrats are not benevolent.

After the 9/11 attack, the nation was the brotherhood and sisterhood of Americans, no matter what color or political persuasion. We were united against our enemies. Fast forward 20 years and we have surrendered to the Taliban and left Afghanistan in disgrace, plus we have surrendered our country to the marxists and criminals. Not really a stellar 20 years that we should be proud of. I'm ashamed to face those murdered in the attack and have to answer why we who survived the attack let it come to this.

I feel youI love you , but Nah, I will never shame, but only , I know God will Hold the Criminals responsible, who Americans ‘Blood was spilled, My Thoughts are , After It all, The Afghans was scared to fight back and ran once they knew the Taliban was coming, Conditional response, You can lead a person to water, but Apparently can not make them drink of fight back, But Honour Of American Blood spilled, Cause we was not scared to fight
