Go USA!
Let's also celebrate the myriad civil liberties lost since then, that continue to this day. Many would state, this is a far greater loss than the original tragedy.
So, no thanks...I'd prefer to forget 9/11 ever happened.

Those are low, low numbers. Iraq is likely well over 1 million, most are women and children. Not even counting the torture and rape. Yeah, if there is a God the last thing he's doing is blessing this land.
