Always remember 11th September,
Jihad, and airplanes and plot;
There is no reason 11th September
Ever should be forgot.






Yesterday, September 8th, The Terrier made a pilgrimage to the site of the murders of 2001, and remembered that awful day when the bright September sky of Manhattan was darkened by the ash and smoke and debris of the World Trade Center and its inhabitants incinerated by jet fuel.
The cold-blooded homicides of that day do no credit to any Muslim, anywhere. Those who believe otherwise deserve no place in the societies of decent human beings.
The site in Manhattan where the Twin Towers once stood doesn't hold the same chilling horror it did in those days immediately after the attack. The smoke no longer rises, the stench no longer hangs in the air, but the immense footprint continues to draw visitors from around the country and the world, as well it should.

This tree stood for centuries in the churchyard of St. paul's Chapel. It persished in the attacks.
