Today we remember and honor the almost 3000 who died in the 9/11 attacks.
To avoid repeat disasters, we must also remember the Bush administration’s negligence in preventing the catastrophe (warnings from the outgoing Clinton team were ignored from day 1 of their presidency; intel alerts were brushed aside right up until the attacks) …
and their subsequent squandering of blood and treasure by lying (according to many analysts) the US into war in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Let us also sadly recall how Republicans shamefully and cruelly blocked a fully funded 9/11 victims compensation package for years.
