Medved with Jack Phillips and ADF's Wagoner on Masterpiece SCOTUS ruling.

September 11 is not a normal day on the calendar.

Nearly 3,000 Americans were murdered by Islamist terrorists. Yet 25 years later, retired Port Authority police officers are asking Governor Kathy Hochul and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani to stay away from the commemoration at Ground Zero.

Thirty-seven Port Authority officers died that morning. Now their surviving brothers are pleading: “Please allow us to remember in peace.”

Hochul angered the 9/11 community by illuminating One World Trade Center for Muslim American Heritage Month. Mamdani faces a petition opposing his attendance signed by more than 96,000 people—including grieving families. Both intend to attend anyway.

Ground Zero—especially on the 25th anniversary of that dark day—does not belong to politicians. It belongs to the dead and their families, the cops and firefighters who walked into hell while everyone else ran away.

They do not owe elected officials a backdrop or a lesson in tolerance.

One day. One place. No politics.

They’ve earned that.

Let them have it.

Kevin McCullough: Ground Zero Is Not a Political Stage

As the 25th anniversary of 9/11 approaches, Americans who remember that day also remember its aftermath.

Along with the shock, horror, suffering and death, there was resolve: We would never forget what happened. And we would never let it happen again.

Thankfully, nothing on that scale has happened since.

But too many Americans seem less alert to the threat of radical Islamism.

A for-profit sharia finance industry operates across America. A North Texas school was established and staffed by relatives of convicted Hamas operatives. And New York’s current mayor has been photographed with an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.

For those of us who remember the terror of 9/11, these developments are almost unbelievable. And they’re frightening.

Because we know what happens when people forget the past. They risk repeating it.

Carol Platt Liebau: The Danger of Forgetting

“Some people did something,” one prominent Islamist member of Congress put it.  An Islamist candidate for US Senate wrote: those we killed in our response to 9/11 were equally to be mourned as victims just as the Americans killed on 9/11 were. He has also campaigned with a popular broadcaster who claimed the US deserved 9/11.  The Islamist Mayor of New York has posted on X there is no moral difference between those who were killed on 9/11 and those we killed in response.

This is how we lose the distinction between good and evil which, many thought, would never be confused again after 9/11.

Elie Wiesel wrote, “history is to civilization what memory is to individuals.”  For those of us who remember 9/11 accurately, we can never forget it, nor the fact that vast numbers of people with a medieval ideology still want us dead. 

Those engaging in moral equivalence about it are the handmaidens of hate.

If ignored, they will be the authors of our destruction—which, Abraham Lincoln reminded us, can only come from within.
