Twenty-five years after 9/11, ‘we the people’ are a house divided
United we stood. Today, as we approach the 25th anniversary of Sept. 11, the centrifugal forces tearing apart our civic and political fabric reflect a tragic irony: We are doing to ourselves what al Qaeda could only dream of doing itself.
TL;DR
- Approaching the 25th anniversary of Sept. 11, the US faces severe internal divisions.
- These divisions are ironically fulfilling what al Qaeda could only dream of.
- The US has defended itself well against external threats in the past 25 years.
- The nation has lost sight of protecting itself from internal enemies.
