Good post -- this is the most moving statement I've read about 9/11 and how we should respond.

"We will either root it out and extinguish it wherever it may hide, or it will find us and strip us of our safety, happiness and everything we cherish.

But we can succeed if we have the strength, resolution and the willingness to persevere."

I wish the Dim dwarves running for President would get this message.

May God bless and comfort Ted Olson.

I hate to say it, but we don't have what it takes to win the "War on Terrorism". Certainly someone who has paid as high a price as Ted Olsen might know it, but we just don't. You don't stamp out malaria by handing out flyswatters and standing guard at the edge of town. You drain the swamp. We simply don't have the hardness of heart to wipe out the communities where these jihaddis spawn. As long as you leave two mosquitos and a thimlbe of water, there will be more mosquitos, and as long as you leave a handfull of these fanatics in a hole somewhere there will be more of them.

One last heartwrenching, important 9-11 tribute - and "call to arms":

September 11 can be remembered not as a beginning of a slide into chaos, but as the beginning of the end of blind, ruthless, random brutality, and the tears of orphaned children, the screams of hideously burned bodies, and the numbing grief that terrorism delivers. We cannot give up until that goal is attained, whether it comes in our lifetime or not.
