As Garrett M. Graff so carefully points out:
After 9/11
- As a society, we succumbed to fear.
- We chose the wrong way to seek justice.
- At home, we reorganized the government the wrong way.
- Abroad, we squandered the world’s goodwill.
- We picked the wrong enemies.
As we remember that day and grieve for all who lost their life, I fervently believe we must also remember and confront what came afterwards.
