Something I just don&#8217;t understand at all.\u00a0 Would we have welcomed Nazis during WW2?\u00a0 I don&#8217;t think so.\u00a0 And less you try to tell me all muslims are not terrorists, just know that almost all terrorists are muslims.\u00a0 I watch them torture and murder Christians in several countries.\u00a0 What would happen here in the United States if we were under muslim control?\u00a0 May it never happen.<\/p>\n<p>Where were you when the attack happened?\u00a0 I was cleaning our church at the time. I would go in at two o&#8217;clock in the morning and work until nine or ten that morning. On 9\/11 I was taking out the trash in my car when I heard that a plane had flown into the World Trade Center. My exact thought was, &#8220;What nut flew an airplane into that building?&#8221;\u00a0 I was thinking a small plane.\u00a0 \u00a0I didn&#8217;t know until I got home and turned on the tv that it was an air liner and I saw the second one fly into the second building and I knew we were under serious attack.\u00a0 I sat glued to the tv all day.\u00a0 I had so many emotions that day. Grief, anger, disbelief, fear.\u00a0 When the pentagon was attacked I thought it was all out war.\u00a0 Maybe it should have been. Maybe we should have annihilated the enemy once for all in the days afterward.\u00a0 My heart broke for all those who lost loved ones that day. Remember all the pictures and messages posted on fences and walls by family members looking for their loved ones, hoping they had survived the attack?\u00a0\u00a0 Those pictures still haunt me.<\/p>\n<p>But true to form, the Democrats and Republicans could not remain as one voice for very long and soon some were for protecting all muslims at any cost while some wanted to bomb muslim countries into oblivion.\u00a0\u00a0 Maybe if we had done that then, we would not be having the continuous threats to our country and many other countries around the world with muslim infiltration.\u00a0\u00a0 I read about rapes going up in European countries because of muslim infiltration.\u00a0 In Sweden, rapes have sky rocketed in that small country.\u00a0 All because of their leaders allowing so many muslim men into their country.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know what the answer is.\u00a0 I ask God to protect our country from those who would destroy us.\u00a0 \u00a0Just this week a hundred Banglesdesh people were stopped at our border.\u00a0 People are flooding our borders as never before.\u00a0 I heard today that since 9\/11 border patrol and ICE have turned away eleven million people at our border. Millions more have come into our country illegally. Muslim\u00a0Terrorists were even found living \u00a0in a compound right on our border,\u00a0who were training children to attack our schools.\u00a0 Our president is trying to stop this with a wall, but, as usual, the politicians can&#8217;t come together and get it done.\u00a0\u00a0 I hope there will not be another 9\/11 to wake some up.<\/p>\n<p>This day brings many thoughts.\u00a0 If you live in a country being invaded, you understand what I am writing about.\u00a0 If you believe muslims are a peace loving people, and many are,\u00a0 that\u00a0is your right, but the religion was founded on conquest and destruction and taking over people by force, if needed.\u00a0\u00a0 The culture of Islam is not compatible with free countries.\u00a0\u00a0 I never really thought\u00a0much about Islam before 9\/11, but I have thought a lot\u00a0about it since and I have done some studying of it\u00a0and nothing has proven to me it is peaceful.\u00a0 It&#8217;s only peaceful when kept in control.<\/p>\n<p>So, when you ponder where you were and what you were thinking on this day, just know we must all come to some conclusion one day about who the enemy really is and what should be done about it.\u00a0 I pray we never have to endure another horrible day like 9\/11 ever again.<\/p>\n<p>Say a prayer for those who lost loved ones this day seventeen years ago and pray God will protect our countries from any more harm.\u00a0 Bye.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today is September 11th.\u00a0 A day we Americans remember with sadness, some anger, and hope that it never happens again.\u00a0 It was a day like no other I have experienced, when for just a little bit of time we Americans were banded together against one enemy.\u00a0 An enemy who thought nothing of flying two airplanes [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8565","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-things-on-my-mind"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/snicklefritz.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8565","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/snicklefritz.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/snicklefritz.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/snicklefritz.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/snicklefritz.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=8565"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/snicklefritz.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8565\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8568,"href":"https:\/\/snicklefritz.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8565\/revisions\/8568"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/snicklefritz.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=8565"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/snicklefritz.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=8565"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/snicklefritz.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=8565"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
