History books can tell you facts that happened, but they can never truly tell you how it feels.

I feel we're riding a knife's edge and there's a hurricane brewing in the gulf of absurdity.

Incidentally, I feel like this is why it is so hard to actually learn from history. You can read about the 1918 'Spanish' Flu, but you think "we're smarter now". etc.

Great quote. I feel the same way about 9/11 - the feeling of confusion, like "wtf is going on?!" IMHO, only those who lived it can really relate.

It's time to revisit 9/11 and think about what it means in the modern context

Bush threatened the Taliban, and they responded. How many is donald threatening?

The modern context is we have gone from a benevolent nation to a blidgerent nation. Not really progress. But the context is decisive.
