An Irish survivor of the 9/11 terror attacks, whose sister and niece were on one of the hijacked planes that were flown into the World Trade Center, is set to play a key role once the trial of five suspects gets underway.
Ron Clifford, originally from Cork, witnessed first-hand the devastation of the immediate aftermath of the terror attacks and narrowly survived the disaster when flaming wreckage fell onto the building plaza in front of him.
He later learned that his sister Ruth McCourt and her four-year-old daughter, Juliana, were passengers on board the second aircraft to crash into the Twin Towers.

"Not to mention the ones our government is protecting. "-WolfieAnd continues to do so...? From the linked article:

Petro-dollars, without a doubt. If the camel humpers dump the dollar the DC/Wallstreet cartels know the game of smoke and mirrors with our economy is over.
I assume US soldiers are still protecting the Saudi oil fields (which 10+ years ago an economist costs the US taxpayer about 100 per barrel)
To put this in perspective there were 3 years and 5 months between Pearl Harbor and victory in Europe.
I knew this guy back then. We were negotiating with him on a software project. Heard the story first hand and there was more to it. He helped a woman out of the first tower. She wouldn’t let him leave her as she was being tended to. If he had gone where he was headed he would have been killed by falling debris.
Can understand his grief still. And his anger which we have lost because we aren’t allowed to remember who did it and how. ISIS and the highjackers came from the same source but we aren’t allowed to speak its name.
Yesterday, September 14, was the 114 year commemoration of the death of President William McKinley who was assassinated by a anarchist in Buffalo. The assassin was tried, sentenced and executed 46 days after McKinley’s death. Maybe we have not progressed as a society.
Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.I think a case can be made for severe regression.
