11 September 2001, President George W. Bush addressed the nation on the events of the attacks.

It's often said that it's good the American people quickly grow weary of war and the death and destruction it brings......otherwise they might learn to grow fond of it. |

However, they must never allow those who would surrender our national sovereignty and security, to appease our enemies for the sake of personal political gain, to think that appeasment diplomacy is the best way to deal with those who have openly admitted to the world that their mission is to bring death, destruction and an end to our way of life. The past 30 years of appeasement diplomacy has only emboldened our enemies. |

We must all maintain our resolve through the coming years to approach this threat to our future with the determination, bravery, spirit, and sacrifice shown by those average Americans on Flight 93, who refused to surrender their lives and futures without a flight! To do anything less would be a great dishonor to their memory and the memories of our brave "Soldiers Of The Gauntlet," and their comrades in arms, who carry on their fight for the right of all people to be free from sectarian terror and repression. The only fitting memorial to their sacrifice is a complete and total "Victory" in the Global War on Terrorism. |
