Remembering 9/11

Inevitably today, we will run across countless articles and blogs reflecting on September 11th: on the government’s many missteps in handling it, of mourners’ yearning for more information and for another opportunity to commemorate their loved ones, of the city’s, and the nation’s, desire to move forward while always remembering.

For example, one article in this morning’s NYT discusses Mayor Bloomberg’s efforts to move the city “beyond 9/11” in a balanced way that encourages healing and respects the memory of lost loved ones. He says: “And the 9/11 ceremonies, what I’m trying to do is that in the morning we will look back, remember who they were and why they died. And in the evening come out of it looking forward and say, ‘O.K., we’re going to go forward.’ ”

What many are asking is how we can move forward when so many people are still awaiting closure. Heroes who helped with the rescue and clean up await the health care and compensation they deserve. Surviving families await their day in court to determine whether anything could/should have been done to prevent the attackers from boarding those airplanes. And this country awaits withdrawl from this senseless war, which played upon the fears and trauma created by the 9/11 attacks.

Six years later, we wait. More to come later in the day.

Today we remember loss and contemplate the sacrifices made to evil.

Yet, I cannot get this out my mind. The Lawyer.

Why didn't the passengers overtake and kill the enemy to best prevent the entire tragedy? Overwhelming numbers, some with military training.

The public, especially men, has been feminize, cowed, and pacified by the criminal cult. The cult has embedded itself with the military, and cancels orders at the Centcom level.

As owner and consumer of the law, I worry. The next terror attack may cause such vicious payback against the cult criminal hierarchy as to threaten demoocracy and the rule of law.

Kia: In your wildest imagination, can you conceive of an Israeli, a French, a Philipino, a Saudi complement of passengers accepting the takeover of their plane by these sleazeballs, and its heading toward a New York landmark without a struggle to the death?

The lawyer has emasculated and effeminized even our warrior. Instead of being berated for not having eradicated the enemy in its entirety by now, the warrior is second guessed for split second decisions, and raked over the coals by these internal traitors. The soldier has to worry about being put on trial for tactical field combat decisions, by these traitors.

The role of the lawyer instilled culture of the US escaped the 9/11 Commission, a biased, lawyer dominated propaganda piece of trash. Nor am I any conspiracy theorist. I am a cult indoctrination theorist. Conspiracies may end with a few arrest.

Cultural shifts require centuries of struggle. For example, anyone with an education knew slavery and racial discrimination were wrong in 1750. How long did it take for the lawyer to understand that, and legislate accordingly?

In 2207, a researcher will read this comment, and point to it as ground zero for the loving correction of the out of control lawyer profession. They will say, there was awareness even 200 years ago of the harmful effects of this criminal cult enterprise, of the world's oldest and most powerful criminal syndicate. By then, a constitutional amendment will have prohibited anyone who has passed 1L from sitting on any bench, in any legislative seat, or occupying any policy position in the Executive.

Fifth grade civics students will look back on us in disbelief, and pity our passive acceptance of domination by this criminal syndicate.

One of the main issues that was brought out before911 was the lack of communication between law enforcement agencies. The majority of this was due to legal hurdles that were in the way. (Privacy violations) We have now learned the lesson as the head of the FBI is not an agent or an analysist. It is an attorney. Field agents at present still can not share information, in fact it is worse as everything is reviewed first by legal not by threat assessment.
Only after it is cleared by legal and passed the "Washington Post Test" can agents act.
