9/11 Families Confront the Marathon Bombing
Elise Cooper * American Thinker
In the wake of the Boston Marathon bombing, many Americans reflected on September 11th, 2001. That date lives in the minds of everyone, but especially those who were most impacted, the 9/11 families. They spoke with American Thinker about how viewing that tragic bombing conjured up memories of the previous atrocity, and they wondered if Americans actually learned anything from 9/11.
Everyone interviewed felt, after seeing the video and hearing reports, that it was a Jihadi attack. They wanted to warn Americans to be prepared, since this is just the beginning. Each family member interviewed was angry and saddened by this tragic event.
Debra Burlingame, a co-founder of Keep America Safe and the sister of the pilot whose plane was flown into the Pentagon, emphasized policy issues. “After seeing what happened, I closed my eyes and swallowed hard. Then I thought about two people who should feel vindicated, Congressman Peter King (R-NY) and NYPD Police Commissioner Ray Kelly. King was treated with such contempt for choosing to look into the radicalization of Muslims in the U.S., while Kelly was criticized (by Attorney General Eric Holder and New Jersey Governor Chris Christie) for his stop-and-frisk as well as his Muslim surveillance programs. Americans should understand political correctness is the big danger here.” She also believes that any community who has gone through an Islamic terrorist attack is more than willing to endure searches and camera surveillance. “Civil liberties matter until they don’t.”
Her personal feelings came out as she reflected on the footage of Krystle Campbell’s mother speaking about her daughter who had died in the Boston attack. Debra is hoping that people will still look on those that died or were maimed as the victims not the nineteen-year-old terrorist. “Seeing that mom speak was absolutely crushing for me. I understood exactly what she was going through: the shock, the stunned surreal sense that her dear beloved Krystle was gone, and her raw public heartbreak. It all took me right back, even more than the bomb itself.”
Judi Reiss lost her twenty-three-year-old son, Joshua, when the World Trade Center buildings fell. She is fed up with all those who are asking why. For her, it is the fact that they became radicalized Muslim extremists that want to destroy America’s culture. “How many wake-up calls do we need? We did not learn from 9/11 and we will not learn from this either. Is anybody asking why this terrorist got his citizenship on 9/11, 2012? What is it going to take for us to realize that their mission is to destroy the American way of life by killing us? Reading him his Miranda Rights is stupid and insane. I could not believe it. Even Bill Maher said last Friday, ’I mean there’s only one faith, for example, that kills you or wants to kill you if you draw a bad cartoon of the prophet. There’s only one faith that kills you or wants to kill you if you renounce their faith.’ Let’s face it — a percentage of this religion wants to murder people who do not agree with them. They murder us in the name of their religion.”

Not interested. The 911 ‘families’ took the money, all except for one woman, who held on to the end, years after everyone else caved. Now they trot out to do their show for the boston bs. Gross.
Agree – Boston was a truth sandwich false flag – look at how they used it for a dry-run for martial law; passing the CISPA; walking all over Miranda Rights. People are oppressed and injured and their lives ended EVERY DAY as a result of this kind of tyranny worldwide – much of it directly due to Anglo/American psychotic megalomania.
FBI was in on this false flag, as it has been for 23 of the last 25 “events” over the past years since the other massive false flag 9/11.
“Muslims” are on the US payroll – except they are not Muslims, they are US assets on the payroll for a purpose – and that purpose is Full Spectrum Dominance by a sector of the US/Anglo power-possessors for their own sociopathic reasons.
Isn’t it clear to all now that Osama bin Laden was already dead by 2001? Wake up, there’s a fight going on – and it’s not with Muslims, it’s with a bunch of psycho-bullies.
Sister to the pilot that flew into the Pentagon and co-founder of Keep America Safe? Wonder how much she’s getting paid for the drama and lies… The Congressional staffer that was the negotiator for Iraq & Libya prior to 9/11 has blown the whistle already – after they used the Patriot Act to wrongfully incarcerate her trying to keep her silent….
Fascism is winning. Eighty years ago its racial thrust was against Judaism and today it’s Islam. It appeals to bigotry and fools its victims into blaming its enemies. It is manipulative and skillful, its greatest ally the most base of human instincts. With that at its side it may be unstoppable.

GOBIERNO DE eeuu responsable de las masacres de 11S y Boston ellos son los terroristas asesinos torturadores…FBI.CIA y sus allegados son los terroristas ya no engañan a nadie en todo el globo se sabe ya quienes son los verdaderos imperio del MAL
When architects and engineers from all over the world are saying the 3 buildings that fell on 9/11/2001 were controlled demolitions, then that’s what they were whether we like it or not!
This was a most frightening piece-of-shit artice!! What about the victim’s families for 9/11 truth? Why are they not heard from?!! What is going on here!!!!
