Bet the majority of the protesters are young and have no recall of 9-11. My granddaughter was 7. My grandson...3.
“..protestors are young and have no recall of 9-11.”
Even fewer in the crowd recall the 1979 takeover of the US embassy in Tehran, and the 444 days our embassy personnel were held hostage while Jimmy Carter dithered.
BUT, an examination of the shouted slogans and the protest signs tells us— the EXACT same groups are CONTROLLING the anti-America protests now, as were in 1979.
The taking of the hostages then, and subsequent overthrow of the Shah, are what set off the chain of events that we are still dealing with today.
Fearful of WWIII. Too young or stupid to realize just how many times we have been in the very same places and situations before.
