In Memoriam
September 11th, 2001
On September 11th, 2001 approximately 3,000 people died and the individual most responsible is still at large – why?
In the intervening five years we have spent hundreds of billions of dollars, trampled on peoples rights, created huge new government bureaucracies, and can’t respond as well as the third world to a natural disaster.
Your government failed you. Those entrusted with protecting you failed you. And I failed you. We tried hard. But that doesn’t matter, because we failed. And for that failure, I would ask, once all the facts are out, for your understanding and for your forgiveness. – Richard Clarke.
