#2 I remember the picture of "The Falling Man" and it still brings a deep and abiding anger -- and I feel that one should never hate because hate destroys the mind...

#3 ^If you can't hate, you can't love. Of course, love is said to destroy the mind too.

#4 That endless war seems to be finally ending after nearly 20 years. Trump has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. That must gall the left. I doubt Trump cares much about this award as the company isn't all that great, e.g. Arafat, Obummer.

#5 Hate impairs judgement, and worse perhaps, aim.

#7 Until there is an across the board, ironclad committment to "only win" ROE, we don't need any more "war for war's sake."

#9 Travel ban is the way to go. We don't go there and they don't come here. I'm afraid I've become an isolationists and a trade protectionist. We can trade and interact with the people in the world who are civilized and respect human rights. But we need to stay away from barbarians, tyrants and others who mean us no good and we need to keep them away from America.

#11 Trying to find the well done documentary which does the whole event in real time, just showing video and timestamp.

#12 Remember this also, Biden opposed raid that killed Bin Laden.

The fact that even Hussein Bath House ignored that advice says something.

#15 JohnQC, nominated for two actually. He was nominated by a Swedish politician today for the Serbia/Kosovo deal. Not really a peace deal but a huge step.

BLM will probably get the prize because that's about how worthwhile the thing is, but still I hope the nominations pile up.
