Terrorism a Threat to US September 11 Anniversary
The United States may be under the threat of terrorism on the ten year anniversary of the September 11 attack that killed almost 3000 people.
Reading this article made me think of Obama's quote following the death of Osama Bin Laden -
"Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that."
This quote demonstrates that returning violence with violence only serves to create a self-perpetuating cycle of hate.
I sincerely hope that everyone remembers these wise words in the lead up to September 11, and that the US is able to remember the tragic event of 9/11 in peace, without having to fear the potential of another attack.
