And so, and before it does, I thought it’s worthwhile remembering that today was a day, sixteen years ago today, that changed the world, and where the world will never ever be the same again… : The 9/11 attack, on the World Trade Center towers in New York.  And where not all but so much of the turmoil and turbulence that we are living through in our times, and will perhaps continue to live through for decades to come, stem from that day, that attack – and whoever was responsible.

Of course there are; and what happened that day happened because of what already existed...  But nevertheless, there are certain things, certain events – like that one shot, that assassination, back in 1914 – that precipitate things that then, cumulatively, change the world forever.  And September 11 2001 was one of those.

Because that was, and is, truly a stand-alone event.  And where frankly, for me it's a little strange that other than news of the official commemoration in New York City, there have been no movement posts, no movement commemorations, no movement commentary, of that day…  How and why is this the case ?  Or am I missing something ?
