Try to remember what started it all...


... the firey destruction of the WTC by fundamentalists unswayable in their blind convictions of being right while everyone else is wrong.

This is a characteristic they share with the bushbaby and his playpen, along with both groups' distrust of human rights, people who are different, free thought, passion, justice, etc.
As September 11 again nears, six years after those events, it is time to recall what was and is at risk:
  • civilized enlightenment with humans doing what makes them human : thinking
and what the threat is:

  • blindly believing religious fundamentalists afraid of thought and free people and prepared to do anything to stamp them out.
Fly the flag of enlightenment on September 11 !

And here's is an accurate assessment of the current dilemma from -
