Here is my spin, and you can hate me all you want for it.
America the great imposes itself on countries that have been around longer than America, and it is surprised when a retaliation happens due to what we are wrongfully doing to other countries; i.e., those unspeakable acts that cannot be disclosed to the public due to national security.
Therefore, I will forget what happened on 9-11.
It does not make me less American. It actually makes me more of an American for having the gumption to stand up to the government.
I think 9/11 happened because radical Islam inherently believes everyone who is not a radical muslim should die. I don't think their motives were purely out of some revenge or retaliation.
And even if it was purely out of revenge, the people they killed in 9/11 were innocent people who had nothing to do with any sort of injustice that was done to the middle east.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
