11 September 2003 - 2nd Anniversary of "911"

11 September 2003 ................................ Thursday - 2nd Anniversary of "911" I remember "911" as if it were yesterday. "911" changed my life forever. "911" was WORSE than "The Alamo" and/or "Pearl Harbor". And, as "The Alamo" and/or "Pearl Harbor" brought TOTAL defeat to the perpetrators "911" is bringing TOTAL defeat to the perpetrators. i.e. Osama/El Qaida/Taliban has been driven from Afganastan Saddam Hussein has been driven from Power in Iraq and his Sadistic Killer Son's have been killed, as he soon will be the "Crosshairs" are now aligning on other Terrorists. The Terrorist are going down, and that is good. "911" taught me, and many others, the Islamic Extremist intend to exterminate ME and MINE. I/WE must find and destroy them, before they destroy ME/MINE. There is NO talking to do. Any person or group of persons that is willing to and DOES "Blow Up/Explode/Destroy" their own CHILDREN so as to inflict pain and suffering on Me, is a sick group, that has now gone beyond TALKING. I cannot figure out a sickness like that -"Blow Up/Explode/Destroy" their own CHILDREN so as to inflict pain and suffering on Me - But since "911" I no longer care what they believe, I want them found and destroyed. NOW. I begin this day, at 12:00:01, at Calence, Inc. It is now about 06amMST and I am here in the NOC, exactly where I was two(2) YEARS ago as the Hijacked Airliners were hitting the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. I am watching, on the TV, the Memorials that are taking place in New York and PA and Virginia. We must never forget AND we MUST find and destroy, from the face of the earth, the kind of thinking that would drive a person or persons to do such a horrible thing. Following is an e-mail from Stacey Kagan and My Response to it Subject: Remembering I wanted to take a moment - on this anniversary of one of the most heinous crimes ever committed - to say "thank you", "I treasure you" . to each of you. There are so many feelings/thoughts/emotions rumbling through my head today. ------------------------------ Yep Yep Yep As this second anniversary was happening, I was located in exactly the same spot "The NOC" looking at exactly the same TV's, that were replaying exactly the same scenes, that horrified me 2 years ago, at exactly the same time of day. Again, it was a horrible experience. One that I still find hard to believe, that it happened at all. I was on duty two years ago just as I was this year. ------------------------------ So many things upon which to reflect --- so many things for which to be thankful. I am thankful for what we have in this country - for the chance for each of us to be all that we wish to be, for the educational opportunities afforded to us, for the ability for us to live where we want, go where we want, do what we desire. We are not "locked down", we do not live under a curfew, we are not constantly having to dodge missiles or bullets. I am thankful for each of you and the role within my life that you have had. Always remember - never forget - -------------------------------------------- I agree and that is why I am keeping the remembrance of "911" alive at www.wendelleyring.com. Go there and look at it again, and you WILL remember. I now know that these terrorists must be found and destroyed OR they will find and destroy you and me. Stacey, Thanks for helping me, and others, remember something that we must NEVER forget. Yours Truly, Wendell ------------------------------------------- I do NOT go to work this evening, I am on a new schecule now.
