My viewpoints on America Under Attack
by hattie m. tarbox, South Dakota-
Since this attack happened on our country Tuesday, Sept. 11th; I have been watching and listening to the proceedings on tv and listening to it on the radio.... God this is horrible!!!! I cannot believe how the heck did these terrorists even do this...I mean..hijacking one plane could be understandable...but four? Where was the security at the airports?? Where was all the technological equipment to prevent and catch the guns or whatever weapons these people used??? Where was the radar before those two planes hit the World Trade Center and the one plane hitting the Pentagon?? Shoot why didn't the FAA or other security groups such as the FBI and CIA and such do something when they knew those planes were hijacked before the crashes? The government knows it was a type of kamikaze suicide mission, but how much more blood has to be shed and tears to fall?? How many more people have to die to satisfy the Grim Reaper...the Angel of Death??? I am not trained in such things but from what I could hear...and just being a United States citizen....it was a form of Kamikaze....and yes this is another Pearl Harbor. I hear more and more of what is going on....and these people supposedly were allowed here in the United States since June of this year or even longer; and that there was filmed evidence of such said people taking aireonautical flight classes to be able to fly said planes.
When will enough be enough??? I was listening to one senator.. at least I think it was a senator..and he had stated that when Gerald Ford was in office as President- he had made an Executive Order decision that the United States would not send special forces to assassinate any terroist faction that would possibly be the cause of mass murder or bombings even after investigation proving they did such deeds. He also stated that to change that Executive Order or cancel it..only another president can veto it or reissue an order to change it to allow specialty forces the permission to hunt down and assassinate those factions or terroists. I say hunt them down and erase them !!!
Have you noticed everytime a new president is brought in...if you really think about it...have you noticed something like this happens maybe not of this magnitude or with a different type(s) of ramification???
It is a challenge...and the terroists or factions who perpetrate these occurrences...they are trying to test the new reign of our government and the loyalty of our allies...calling our bluff(s)..and we americans who are just all pawns to our moralistic, judicially messed up government -because the chiefs of our government do not have the "balls" to stand up and be warriors. They just keep sitting back and they keep sending out and allowing our soldiers to give their lives fighting for our freedom-just like the other government leaders of other free countries who are our allies-not enough warriors but too many chiefs squabbling to be in charge- they fold their cards and then sit back and whine about the shoulda's, coulda's, whatif's and such when they lose... while we the civilians of our country and the soldiers and civilians of other free countries-the innocents...we are the ones who have to suffer. I am so sick of hearing..."WE UNITED STATES AND OTHER FREE COUNTRIES WILL NOT TOLERATE ANYMORE THREATS TO OUR WAY OF LIFE AND WE WILL HUNT YOU DOWN AND PUNISH THE ONES WHO DO THESE COWARDLY DEEDS".
Well by god practice what you preach!!!!! Don't sit with your thumbs up your bottoms and keep saying that and not following through!!!!!
It is like slapping the hand of a child to punish them for sticking their hands in the cookie jar...while telling them "NO NO", while they have their fingers crossed and still planning on the next time to do the same thing...or embracing an enemy while knowing they will probably at the same time be sticking a knife in your back... Or allowing a spider,scorpion,or a snake to come in,bury its talons of hatred and destruction in our soil into our way of life.. and destroying the beliefs we have as a modern civilization... the freedom of our country and other free countries by us being just the prey they are hunting, while we are running around trying to hide, trying to find the answers of said questions and wondernments asked when the answers are as plain as the noses on our faces,blaming this and that instead of standing up, admitting and accepting our mistakes and learning from them.. thus becoming the mongoose or predator to hunt down,fight and kill the snake,spider, or scorpion and thus they-these factions or terroists becoming the prey.. or thus allowing another Hitler to reign around and destroy the innocent in mass quantities.
I have also noticed since this has happened.. people panicking because of what is going on... because of the prices of gas going up because of this horror. Enough with the greed...be compassionate and lower the costs of gas because of this National Tragedy!!!!! What is going to happen I am afraid of is because of this...price gauging will get worse...not just on gas but on other things...food,bottled water,etc. Yes we must all live on and yes we must all try to keep our faith and be strong,but enough is enough. We cannot nor will we go quietly into the dark of the night.. we have overcome other obstacles,other battles, but we did it with our morals,our beliefs,our faith in what is right and wrong. But we did not back down ... and especially not without a fight!!!!! WE HAVE ALL JOINED TOGETHER AND BY DOING SO WE HAVE LET OUR FREEDOM, OUR PRIDE, OUR BELIEFS RING OUT AND SHINE ALL AROUND THIS COUNTRY AND AROUND THE WORLD... BY DOING THIS WE HAVE TOLD THE MONSTERS TO GO TO HELL BEFORE, SO LET US DO SO AGAIN!!!!!
But sadly thus I am also guilty for thinking wrongly and feeling the starts of hatred grow ....I understand as a civilian and as a citizen of the United States, but also as a woman and as a mother trying to teach her children good verses evil, what is right and what is wrong. War is not the answer and there is no such thing as a justifiable reason to kill, to take a human life,nor to hate. The problem is that no matter what...the innocent on both sides ...especially our children...and their children...they will be the ones who will suffer from our misdeeds. That brings to mind the commandment of "THOU SHALT NOT KILL", the words of John Lennon "All we need is love", and the memorable words of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. "I have a Dream".
Frankly I am tired and I feel like Rip Van Winkle wanting to fall asleep for a hundred years and hoping and praying thus by doing so the light of a new coming dawn will and shall heal the wounds of said national injuries and all other prior altercations and we can somehow go on living in peace... but always sadly knowing the scars will always be there ...never to be erased.
**** an American Poem*****
THIS I BELIEVE
WE MUST STAY THE COURSE
WE MUST KEEP THE FAITH
WHEN I SEE THE FLAG OF OUR HOMELAND HERE
I TRULY FEEL & THIS I KNOW
WE HAVE DREAMED & WE HAVE SIGHED
WE HAVE LAUGHED & WE HAVE CRIED
WE HAVE TRIUMPHED & WE HAVE DIED
WE MUST NEVER GIVE UP, NEVER GIVE IN
WE MUST NEVER SURRENDER
FOR WE ARE AMERICANS!!!!!
