What emotions do you hope the Global War on Terrorism Memorial will evoke? Did you know that our design process has included a first-of-its-kind public input campaign where we gathered design insight from thousands of Americans? We look forward to building a Memorial that tells the entire story of how our Nation has waged this multi-generational war, and gives a voice to ALL whom this incredibly complex conflict has impacted. gwotmf.org

an opinion that matters to both the US, and Allies :Israel,our friend and ally,who supported the US, on that tragic 9/11/2001, that surprise terrorist attack on our homeland, New York City, that devastated the US, up to five thousand died, many thousands with first secuity responders, and their families. With faith and action, a new memorial has been built in honor of those who sacrificed their lives for democracy and freedoms. As such is the manner of history repeating:10\07/23, the thousand of lives, both Israel and Palestine, still those held in captivity,their families, but , the war has expanded to Iran, 04/13/24, the sucessful defense of the US and Israeli Defense, thwart an 21st century technology warfare.It is vital to support in every manner, the defense of Israel, against a common enemy, Iran, a threat to an existing civiization on this planet earth.

Yesterday, the U.S. and the world commemorated the 9/11 attacks, a day that forever changed the course of history. In the aftermath, the U.S. and its allies vowed to wage a global war on terror, promising to make the world a safer place. But 23 years later, the reality feels much different. Terrorism has not been eradicated; in fact, it has evolved and spread. Radical ideologies continue to gain momentum, and the threats we face today are more complex and widespread. Instead of the world becoming safer, it often feels like the West has grown weaker in confronting these challenges. Extremists are emboldened, and the global landscape is more fractured. The commitment to fight terror should not have diminished, yet it seems that the unity and determination we once saw have faded. If we are to truly honor the memory of those lost on 9/11, we must recognize that this fight is far from over. The world must stand stronger, more united, and more determined than ever to confront and defeat terrorism.

"This is a hot Cold War II. The West has empirically lost deterrence. We must respond to this emergency to regain it. We have a peer adversary: China. “Near-Peer” is a shibboleth, a euphemism to avoid the embarrassment of acknowledging we have peers when we were once peerless. In World War II, America was the best at mass production. Today that distinction belongs to our adversary. America’s national security requires a robust industrial base, or it will lose the next war and plunge the world into darkness under authoritarian regimes. In the current environment, American industries can’t produce a minimum line of ships, subs, munitions, aircraft, and more. It takes a decade or two to deliver new major weapon systems at scale. If we’re in a hot war, we would only have days worth of ammunition and weapons on hand. Even more alarming is our lack of capacity and capability to rapidly repair and regenerate our weapon systems. Given the vast sums we have spent on defense in these decades of Pax Americana, it would be reasonable to wonder: what went wrong?" https://www.18theses.com/

How It's Going, Part 4: Post 911 "Now, the question is whether the war on terror is a war against terror or a war of terror. And what we can clearly see, it's the latter. Terrorism has increased 4,500% since 911, with now something like 10 times as many people being killed in terrorist attacks today than there were in 2000."

We at #IsraelAppreciationDay reaffirm our commitment to the values of freedom, democracy, and peace. The bond between America and Israel is built on these shared principles, and together, we remain vigilant in the fight against terrorism. ????????

May we continue to work towards a world where such acts of terror are no more, and where peace prevails for all. #September11 #911 #Terrorism #NeverForget #NeverAgain #NeverAgainIsNow #IAD2024

Today marks 23 years since the devastating 9/11 attacks, a pivotal moment in modern history. On September 11, 2001, four commercial planes were hijacked by terrorists, resulting in catastrophic crashes into the World Trade Center's Twin Towers, the Pentagon, and a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. The timeline of events unfolded with horrifying speed, leaving 2,996 people dead, over 6,000 injured, and causing unprecedented destruction. The aftermath saw heroic emergency responses, global outrage, and a significant shift in international relations, leading to the launch of the War on Terror and enhanced security measures worldwide. We remember the victims, honor the responders, and reflect on the lasting impact of that fateful day. #September11 #NeverForget #911Anniversary #WorldTradeCenter #Pentagon #Shanksville #WarOnTerror #GlobalSecurity #HeroicResponders #InternationalRelations #Tribute #Remembrance #WeRemember

If you're interested in the recent targeted killing of Hassan Nasrallah, you might be interested in this "Eyes On" podcast I did with the Team House crew, including my longtime friend Jason Lyons, Andy Milburn, and Dee Takos. Note: we recorded this before Nasrallah was killed, so the podcast hosts get special kudos for this timely subject! And if you're REALLY interested in learning more about leadership decapitation and what happens to terrorist groups, you can check out my book, Targeting Top Terrorists. https://lnkd.in/ektABDG8

???? Remembering 9/11: Honoring Resilience, Unity, and Courage ???? On this solemn day, we pause to remember the lives lost and the heroes who emerged on September 11th, 2001. This day forever changed the course of history, leaving an indelible mark on our hearts and minds. "Terrorist attacks can shake the foundations of our biggest buildings, but they cannot touch the foundation of America.

Opening the floor for discussion: Around 2014, Russia annexed Crimea, China militarized the Spratly Islands in the South China Sea, and Iran was allowed to pursue the bomb. A decade later, we have had more than 300 attacks on U.S. bases by Iran, 1,200 people slaughtered in a pogrom in Israel, an estimated 1 million casualties in brutal combat in Ukraine, and an unprecedented tempo of CCP phase zero operations in the Taiwan Straits.
