Today my thoughts are with all the courageous men and women who risk their lives every day for us, the citizens.

17 years ago we all witnessed an inconceivable attack. An attack that not only costs many thousands of lives, an attack that also cost us a large part of our freedom. It was the occasion to push ahead with the surveillance of each individual. I witnessed the attack far away in Europe, I saw on TV how the BBC reported the collapse of Building 7 as it collapsed in the background, minutes later! Later I lost my job, by the crisis that resulted thereby. Unlike many others, I lost my job. Others were worse off, losing family members and friends.

For me it was the first event in my life where I saw: where we go one we go all. We will never forget!

God bless America, god bless the world.
