September 11th - Let us Think Hard and Long

If we are wise we will use this weekend to look at where we are and what kind of people we are. Nothing stays won anywhere. Yesterday's deals must bee updated. Not once. Again and again. The old Constitution must be read through the eyes and turbulence of today. Not yesterday. Maybe this is a testing time. The way we respond may just tell us who we really are after all.

I share with you a poem boy a Muslim man. His words make me think. His name is Tamman Adi. Listen closely to what he says:

Hitler’s song was “Jewish terrorism.” It created the Holocaust.

The media keeps singing “Islamic terrorism.”

“Terrorism experts” keep singing “Islamic fundamentalism.”

Do they want a holocaust against Muslims?

Hey journalists, you know better.
