I liked your strong finish:

September 11, 2001 was a pivotal day in our nation’s history. But it’s worth remembering that we did not attack Afghanistan until nearly a month later, as President Bush vowed that our action would occur at the hour of our choosing, not the enemy’s.

Correct. The enemy chose to make September 11 an important day. We should choose to restore it to ordinary status, and recall their actions in the context of our campaign to destroy them. Next September 11, let’s just have a normal day. And instead of remembering 9/11 by letting them make us cry, let’s remember it while we create for the enemy its own days that will live in infamy.

Lots of them.

Maybe we should add a little special zing to our operations next 11 September and every 11 September until the Islamofascist bast**ds roll dead out. Give them a reason to dread the coming of the anniversary day, not celebrate it. Yeah, I like that.
