9/11 Remembrance Time Again…
By: Joseph M. Lenard
First, let me start by saying I hope everyone had the chance to get some relaxation, relief, release, over the long Holiday Labor-Day weekend. That last chance, for many, before Summer symbolically (at least) comes to an end (though we’ve had a cooler than usual Summer here in MidWest USA and Canada, hotter after Labor-Day than had all Summer and more Rainy than “average”/normal Aug./Sep. (as, of course, it isn’t Climate Hustle it’s called normal/natural cycling)). As I’ve written before, we all deserve some occasional distractions and time away from the seriousness of everyday life. Now, after you’ve hopefully had some fun, joy, laughter, time to shift to somber thoughtfulness.
Remember 9/11 while not an Official Holiday is Nationally observed (as “Patriot Day” or like here in Michigan (more down-thread) entire “Patriot Week.”) but NOT an Anniversary (per se) but a REMEMBRANCE and/or COMMEMORATION day – those that were lost, as well as honoring the sacrifice to those who may have Fallen as result of events that then followed.
VIDEO (60m 03s): Behind-The-Scenes look at pre-9/11 CTP Show (S1E12) Show dropping same day as this TLB piece (Sat. Sep. 9th 2023) – including discussions with Ed Bonderenka (WAAM), Pastor Robert (FAITHcasters), Roger Landry (TLB Project), and Michael Gardner (Savaged Unfiltered) — coming in October CTP will have J. J. Carrell (Activist, Author, CBP retired, NEWSMAX contributor):
As most of you know I also co-host the Savaged Unfiltered podcast, and we did a 9/11 Commemoration Show (S4E498) there also that dropped Thu. Sep. 7th.
I say the same thing regarding “commemoration” vs “anniversary” about Memorial Day (you likely already say my “Honoring the Fallen Beyond Memorial Day” piece on that)…. DO NOT DARE CALL IT AN ANNIVERSARY (I do not even like the “Holiday” (as by extension the adoption of the words/terms “Holy Day” though we consider those died as given a Holy Sacrifice (as will be discussed in an upcoming “God and Guns” piece) to Defense of people and Freedom), “Anniversaries” are for happy things and the commemorations are indeed either commemoration days or remembrance days!!!
Remember our words have meaning! We have to be more careful in our word-choices. Cannot be as loose and warping of intent of word meanings as the Left. Holiday and Anniversary are upbeat, positive implication, words (like for 4th-Of-July Celebration of our Freedoms, though yes too we honor those who fought a Revolution for us to Celebrate such Freedom on that day and why The Left wants that Holiday cancelled (as discussed in couple of “Movies and Politics” pieces (here and here, and another “Music, TV, Politics” (that, yes, will have more film/movie references in it too) on the way dropping Sept. 30th) and the “An American Carol” film)) – versus Commemorations and Remembrances.
VIDEO (4m 03s):Billy Ray Cyrus – Some Gave All (Official Music Video):
Gone, not forgotten. Forever in our Hearts!!! Far too many have given that “last final measure” of sacrifice. We are failing our Nation and our own Children not properly Educating them!!! In the USA the Indoctrination factories (and other supposed FREE SOCIETY systems) are peddling Radicalism, Raunch/peRversion (tRans, pedophilia), Racism (cRt), and anti-ameRicanism – the new “R’s” – to our Entitled/lazy, participation tRophy overblown self-esteem buffoons, know nothing brats (thankfully, not all, thankfully some are raising well-rounded respectful Kids – educating them at Home via Home-Schooling directly or supplementing their Education as time allows); meanwhile China is teaching their Children the traditional “R’s” of Reading, wRiting, aRithmetic, histoRy, scRience (see what I did there, cuz our kids are so dumb they wouldn’t know the R doesn’t belong there), biRology (not fake gendeRism), honoR, Respect, woRk-ethic, etc… Americans taught only the flaws of our past (when/where taught History at all, taught to Hate America so Leftists can “fundamentally transform” us to another failed State), not the countless great accomplishments (and how the World would look so different without her).
VIDEO (12m 07s): President G. W. Bush’s (much anticipated, Post-9/11) Memorial Day Speech (Normandy American Cemetery in Colleville-Sur-Mer, France on May 27, 2002):
The following is from my “TERROR STRIKES: COMING SOON TO A CITY NEAR YOU” book ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS / DEDICATIONS section (IN-PART):
Thank you too…
… all those who have suffered loss due to the cowardly attacks against the United States’ innocent citizens that occurred throughout the years and especially September 11, 2001 – to which I said I would NEVER FORGET and I shall indeed Never Forget and I carry a tribute to you all on my right arm.
… first responders (Corrections, Dispatch, EMS/EMT, Fire, Law Enforcement, Military).
… those helping others through charitable pursuits (please help pay it forward – see: http://TerrorStrikes.info/charities). [includes several 1st Responders and Military Charities]
And, of course, thoughts and prayers to family of so many of those we’ve lost. Rest in peace, your memory lives on in us all.
Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. (Matthew 5:14)

Rest-in-peace, you knew the horrors of War (those that day, many of them not recognizing, knowing, realizing, we were already at War and they became casualties of that War on Western Culture by GIJIAS), and we owe you a debt that can never be paid. Have you forgotten?? Are you actually doing things (that matter, of substance) to preserve Freedoms here at Home?!?! You Shall Be Known By Your Fruits (not your online, empty-rhetoric, virtue-signaling). We don’t know them all, but we owe them all.
VIDEO (3m 56s): Darryl Worley – Have You Forgotten?:
#ThoughtsAndPrayers – to the Fallen and to those all left-behind to pick up the pieces of Family, Friends, and even complete strangers (still fellow Americans) we hold dear now (if not then) – as I talk about the issues of “Survivors-Guilt” in my Terror Strikes book and the horrors of PTSD in that book’s 9/11 chapter as they too deal with (like our Soldiers often do) and too issues of Depression and Suicidal-thoughts.
VIDEO (34m 29s): Active FM (S. Africa) With Joseph M Lenard about 9/11 and more:
From my friend Justice Michael Warren (who, with former MI-State Senator Patrick Colbeck) created PATRIOT WEEK (that encompasses week of 9/11, to teach Constitution, U.S. History, more) and others at the organization here in Michigan….
Established by Congress in 1894, Labor Day (the first Monday of September) was created to commemorate the struggles and landmark accomplishments of the labor movement. No doubt a worthy cause. But let’s face it, today it represents the end of summer and provides a three day weekend marked by barbecues and appliance sales. This has become so ingrained in the American mindset, we can never go back.
The real holiday to celebrate this September is Patriot Week. Starting on September 11 (the anniversary of the terrorists attacks) and ending on September 17 (the anniversary of the signing of the Constitution – Constitution Day), Patriot Week renews America’s spirit by celebrating the first principles, Founding Fathers and other patriots, vital documents, speeches and flags that make America the greatest nation in world history.
Patriot Week began as a response to the commercialization and loss of meaning of traditional national holidays, like Labor Day. Patriot Week invigorates American citizens’ appreciation and understanding of their nation’s spirit. It began when 10 year old Leah Warren pounded on a restaurant table and demanded that her father and her start a new celebration of America.
In this time of discord and hyper-partisanship, Patriot Week provides the opportunity to remind us all of what unites as Americans.
This year, we have a wide variety of initiatives and events: a Fun Family Event, a Panel Discussions, Fundraisers, 9/11 Commemoration Ceremonies and more! Please join us and have a meaningful celebration of America.
God bless you and God Bless America.

The Liberty Beacon Project is now expanding at a near exponential rate, and for this we are grateful and excited! But we must also be practical. For 7 years we have not asked for any donations, and have built this project with our own funds as we grew. We are now experiencing ever increasing growing pains due to the large number of websites and projects we represent. So we have just installed donation buttons on our websites and ask that you consider this when you visit them. Nothing is too small. We thank you for all your support and your considerations … (TLB)
