Let’s Cancel 9/11: Bury the War State’s Blank Check at Sea

Tom Engelhardt
Sept 9, 2011

Let’s bag it.

I’m talking about the tenth anniversary ceremonies for 9/11, and everything that goes with them: the solemn reading of the names of the dead, the tolling of bells, the honoring of first responders, thegathering of presidents, the dedication of the new memorial, the moments of silence.  The works.

Let’s just can it all.  Shut down Ground Zero.  Lock out the tourists.  Close “Reflecting Absence,” the memorial built in the “footprints” of the former towers with its grove of trees, giant pools, andmultiple waterfalls before it can be unveiled this Sunday.  Discontinue work on the underground National September 11 Museum due to open in 2012.  Tear down the Freedom Tower (redubbed 1 World Trade Center after our “freedom” wars went awry), 102 stories of “the most expensive skyscraper ever constructed in the United States.” (Estimated price tag: $3.3 billion.)  Eliminate that still-being-constructed, hubris-filled 1,776 feet of building, planned in the heyday of George W. Bush and soaring into the Manhattan sky like a nyaah-nyaah invitation to future terrorists.  Dismantle the other three office towers being built there as part of an $11 billion government-sponsored construction program.  Let’s get rid of it all.   If we had wanted a memorial to 9/11, it would have been more appropriate to leave one of the giant shards of broken tower there untouched.

Ask yourself this: ten years into the post-9/11 era, haven’t we had enough of ourselves?  If we have any respect for history or humanity or decency left, isn’t it time to rip the Band-Aid off the wound, to remove 9/11 from our collective consciousness?  No more invocations of those attacks to explain otherwise inexplicable wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and our oh-so-global war on terror.  No more invocations of 9/11 to keep the Pentagon and the national security state flooded with money.  No more invocations of 9/11 to justify every encroachment on liberty, every new step in the surveillance of Americans, every advance in pat-downs and wand-downs and strip downs that keeps fear highand the homeland security state afloat.

The attacks of September 11, 2001 were in every sense abusive, horrific acts.  And the saddest thing is that the victims of those suicidal monstrosities have been misused here ever since under the guise of pious remembrance.  This country has become dependent on the dead of 9/11 — who have no way of defending themselves against how they have been used — as an all-purpose explanation for our own goodness and the horrors we’ve visited on others, for the many towers-worth of deadin Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere whose blood is on our hands.

Isn’t it finally time to go cold turkey?  To let go of the dead?  Why keep repeating our 9/11 mantra as if it were some kind of old-time religion, when we’ve proven that we, as a nation, can’t handle it — and worse yet, that we don’t deserve it?

We would have been better off consigning our memories of 9/11 to oblivion, forgetting it all if only we could.  We can’t, of course.  But we could stop the anniversary remembrances.  We could stop invoking 9/11 in every imaginable way so many years later.  We could stop using it to make ourselves feel like a far better country than we are.  We could, in short, leave the dead in peace and take a good, hard look at ourselves, the living, in the nearest mirror.

  1. The memorial is meant to be what it is. Feeding FEAR. it there way of saying either you are with us or you are with the terrorists?????? remember what BUSH said???

BUt the manipulators know very well they must keep there evil war matrix alive. THey still hold memorial day in November for the WW2 vets who died serving the war lords????? but theu use there country and they are good patriots who sacrificed there lives but for who?

    To be or not to be, that is the question. Do you control yourself? or do they control you?

    OUT OF RESPECT FOR THOSE WHO WERE SACRAFICED AND THE 1ST RESPONDERS.

    I WILL BOYCOTT THE FREEDOM TOWER AND ANY COMPANY THAT RESIDES IN IT UNTIL THE TRUTH IS ADMITTED TO AND THOSE THAT CARRIED IT OUT ARE PROSICUTED.

    I ADVISE ALL PATRIOTS TO DO THE SAME.

    I WILL NOT WORSHIP A MONUMENT TO FANTASY.

  4. That 911 was and is still…big business.
    They are going to milk that teet as long as they can.

    OOPS

    911

  5. I’ll bet many first responders and people there were not invited.
    Many are dead now and the people who caused this made their money.

    Hey don’t look at me, look at stock option history.

    Matzo, have you ever written letters to the editor with the exact stocks and number of options involved? If so, has it it ever been printed?
    I’m 0 for everything on that.

  6. They can’t tear it down. They have to have a target that the CIA can fly a plane into, so we can go and invade a few more countries, keep the munitions manufacturers producing bombs, planes and white phosphorous, which the Zionist Israel can use on innocent women and children. Don’t spoil the CIA’s fun!

  7. The Freedom tower is not a memorial to freedom as its a monument to celebrate tyranny and slavery and to celebrate and mark their coup d tat.They use the word freedom in vain and their references to 1776 was chosen simply to design it with that many floors.

    Its also known as the One World Tower so its self explanatory as its a monument to themselves.

  8. “Tear Down the Freedom Tower”

    You can always send some guys over with box-cutters
    just sayin

  9. The “Freedom Tower” should not be tore down, it should be renamed.

    Maybe, “The Terror Tower” or “Facist Square” or “Patriot’s Hole” or “Slave Monument” or “Bilderburger Victory Plaza” or “America’s Fall Court”.

    We allowed ourselves to be become enslaved after 9-11. We watched our economy slide into a blackhole. We watched US soldiers and Govt Agents invade about a dozen countries. We allowed for the Bill of Rights to be sidetracked for an agenda.

  10. “War is Peace.” “Hate is Love.”……………

  11. GROUND ZERO SNOW GLOBES HERE!

    SHAKE IT AND WATCH THE TOWERS FALL, WHILE A CLOUD OF ASH ROILS THE STREETS.

    GITCHER SNOW GLOBES!

  12. on September 12th, 2001 Sen Tom Daschle of South Dakota quoted Isaiah 9:10 to the nation, in front of
    congress.
    Isaiah Ch9 verse10 state as follows.
    The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones: the sycamores are cut down, but we will change them into cedars.

    On 9/11 a spire from the top of one of the towers flew through the air and speared out a giant sycamore tree that was on the ground.
    2 years later they replaced that tree with a panacea [cedar] tree, the same exact tree mentioned in the Bible. A symbolic hewn stone was placed as a symbol of rebuilding 3 years after 9/11.
    Sen Daschle’s words were as follows,”The bricks have fallen down but we will rebuild, he sycamore have been felled but we will replace them with cedars.,
    This is what we will do. We will rebuild.”
    Sen Daschle realised the significance of the sycamore being knocked out and replaced and he realised the significance of the hewn stone.He did not realise the significance of his words or the entire Bible passage.
    Verse 9 the preceding verse states,”And all the people shall know, even Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria, that say in the pride and stoutness of heart, “in other words it was foretold in the Holy Bible that the people would be defiant.Many times the politicans spoke of defiance.
    Sen Daschle also missed the point of Verse 11 which is clearly a warning that because they never listened to the first warning that much much worse is to come.
    Many people recognise that the attacks of 9/11 are foretold in the Holy Scriptures.These same Scriptures foretell a much greater attack on the way.
    Interestingly,the first US Government met in a chapel to consecrate their government and land to God,led by George Washington.Washington told them that if they kept walking in the ways of God they would be fine and prosper but if they left God they would be punished.That Chapel was St Pauls Chapel,and although buildings all around were damaged,St Pauls chapel was not.What was it that saved St Pauls?It was the sycamore.
    You can believe this is just a coincidence.You can believe The Almighty Father is myth.You can believe whatever you want.The Bible warnings though are lining up.Maybe now is the time to search for the truth.
