Kucinich Statement on the Anniversary of 9/11

Washington, Sep 9 -

Speaking just two days before the 8 year anniversary of September 11, Congressman Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) today made the following statement:

“It is important that we remember 9/11, those innocent people who lost their lives, those who put their lives at risk while saving lives, and those who survived to grieve the loss of irreplaceable loved ones.

“We have a responsibility to remember 9/11. It would be good, too, for us to remember the course of action our nation embarked upon as a consequence of 9/11. We have a right, a duty to defend ourselves, but in the name of 9/11, war was waged against the people of Iraq who had nothing to do with 9/11.

“At this point, let us remember our troops and their sacrifices since 9/11 and the over 1 million innocent civilian casualties, who also paid a price because of 9/11.

“We should never forget 9/11 and we should never forget the truth. In a democracy, the truth is an ultimate defense. The truth is our security. It is the truth which sets us free and keeps us free.

2. "Never forget the truth."
ESPECIALLY the truth that has yet to be revealed as such.

4. The Bush investigation into 9/11 was flawless. Nothing to see here.
