Do I blame America? Nope. Nor do I blame Iraq. I blame the criminals that
did it.
But as to a memorial.. for what? going to work that day? Why are we
memorializing an act of terrorism? The memorial will become the recruiting
poster for Al Qaeda and add lustre to the men that perpetrated the act. The
quicker this act is forgotten the better.
