Remembering 9/11 And Dealing With Hurricane Irma

Sixteen years ago today, Islamic terrorists hijacked four American airplanes and flew them into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and a field in Pennsylvania.  Today, Hurricane Irma continues to strike the southeastern United States.  Even so, the weather where I live is mild and sunny, just as it was 16 years ago on this date.  Here are some stories relating to these two events:

From the Washington Examiner, President Trump pays tribute to the victims of 9/11.

From The Daily Wire, five things we should have learned from 9/11.

From CNN, the ten children of a firefighter who died on 9/11 continue his legacy.
