RE: 9/11/2001 Where were you when you first heard about the attacks that occurred on that day?

in #wwyw8 years ago

Thank you for sharing. I tend to remember the push for war that came after that day, but upon thinking about it more, I do remember many people saying our foreign policies had led to the attacks. I'm guessing that is what you are referring to. I really don't have any clear memories of what was being said on the news at that time. I didn't have a TV in those days and got filled in mostly by catching bits of information at work.

I have a post coming up about the neocon position in the next couple of days; part of that post will deal with the push to war. I was once a neocon, but there is a central part of that ideology that is wrong, and why the war was fought with the wrong objective, and lasted too long.

To be honest, I really don't know what it means to be a neocon, nor what positions they take, but I look forward to reading your upcoming post.

Thanks for the Steem Dollars - I am close to completing my post: I wrote waaaay too much and have to edit it down

Let me know when you get it posted.
