As the propaganda reels play through of “Never Forget” I want you to never forget the truth of what caused 9/11 and when they used our pain to take our rights away. Never forget we gave visas to those who carried out the terrorist attacks. Never forget what they used the attacks as an excuse for. Never forget the Patriot Act. Never forget politicians flying out Bin Laden’s family when all flights were grounded. Never forget the silencing of information and true journalism that continues today. Never forget the continued assault on our rights as an individual. Never forget the rise of authoritarianism and the police state. Never forget the 24/7 rise of fear porn injected into the populace every day. Never forget the continued use of fear to make us act against our best interests. Never forget 2,977 died on 9/11 because our government failed us, and in return we gave them more power.

If you believe that some barely competent middle east goat farmers could have successfully hijacked, evaded domestic air defenses and flown commercial jets into the twin towers and the Pentagon with a high degree of precision, then I've got 3 free-falling steel reinforced concrete skyscrapers due to minor office fires to sell you.
And, conveniently on same day all of air force is away and air defenses are disabled at that; and miracle passport that is tougher than steel beams, proved with fact that passport survived intact to other side of building from point of plane hitting.
(And very convenient for Bush admin that auditing of finances to find pentagons missing 2.3 trillion dollars was stopped because all finance records got destroyed in attacks that happened day before audit was supposed to take place)
Don't forget that the Patriot act and it's global surveillance system which was a response to 9/11 still exists and has no expiry date.
