Everyone older then 7 knows what happened on this day 7 years ago - you don't need me to remind you. The most influential day in our history , and if you can stand the use of an over used cliche - the day that changed history.
So much has changed in our world since that day, and it is not likely that we will ever be able to revert back to how we lived our lives prior to 9/11 - this is the new reality.
I'm a Canadian so I have a different outlook on this situation simply because I do not reside in the US. Your troops are stuck in a quagmire of a war with no end in sight - and that makes me feel sad for the troops. Men and women who are just doing their jobs and find themselves in the middle of a cluster F*** because of inept politicians.
There are people out there that fully believe and stand behind the logic and rationale applied by George Bush when it came to starting the wars - I speak of both Iraq and Afghanistan. There are others out there the "conspiracy theorists" that state that 9/11 was just one move in an intricate game of chess executed by the global elite.
Where is the truth? No one knows for sure. The one thing I would like to state is that when an emotional and traumatic event such as 9/11 happens it is doubly important that we don't let our thoughts and emotions get effected by the adrenaline of the situation. We need to let logical rationale thinking, and the asking of questions be our moral compass through the difficult times. It is when we dismiss outright the opinions and points of view contrary to ours that we show our ignorance.

As an American, I would say that of all the times in our national history to have an idiot in the White House, 9-11-2001 was the worst timing ever.
I suppose there is never truly a good time for an idiot to be running a super power. If idiots must be in power - may they run the country during a time of world peace and overall hibernation
