I thInk we have a Imarsana.com/news/terrorIst-act'>TerrorIst Act of proportIons that we cannot begIn to ImagIne. Oh, my god thIs Imarsana.com/news/terrorIst-attack'>TerrorIst Attack changed the world. Nearly 3,000 people dIed, and thousands more had theIr lIves upended. ThIs Is the story of three of those who found themselves at the eye of the storm. My dad was an amazIng human beIng. Max gIaccone was a ten year old schoolboy when he was called to the prIncIpal� s offIce. HIs father, joseph, worked at the Imarsana.com/news/world-trade-center'>World Trade Center.

But nothIng can capture the sense of chaos, anger, dIsbelIef of what was unfoldIng. Then, there was steely resolve, and amerIcans were unIted and most of the rest of the world stood wIth amerIca. The talIban, In power In afghanIstan, whod harboured the alqaeda terrorIsts, would be drIven from power and the us would try to replace the warlords wIth democracy. But 20 years on, amerIca has abandoned afghanIstan. I thInk were stIll the greatest democracy In the hIstory of the world, but we are not shInIng the way we used to shIne, and, yes, we are tarnIshed. I do thInk that It has been a defeat for the Imarsana.com/news/prIde-of-amerIca'>PrIde Of AmerIca and the respect that we have had around the world. 20 years ago, amerIca was never more unIted. Two decades on, and the Imarsana.com/news/terrorIst-threat'>TerrorIst Threat largely quelled, and amerIca has never been more dIvIded. The way we came together was. It was awe InspIrIng.

Whether Its Imarsana.com/news/9-11'>9 11, whether Its january 13th, whether Its july 7th. I mIss my dad and that wIll never change. And so to 2021, and the most powerful country In the world seems to be sufferIng a crIsIs of confIdence. And In the manner of Its departure from afghanIstan, the kabul debacle, a crIsIs of competence.

The story of flIght 93 Is one of a0 people brought together by cIrcumstance caught most of whom knew no one on board. BandIng together In a tIme of crIsIs. I can thInk of no greater act of servIce, no hIgher callIng than prIorItIsIng the lIves of others when ones at the lIves of others when ones at the very exIstence Is at stake. DefyIng comprehensIon, these unsuspectIng people suddenly thrust Into extraordInary sItuatIon, acted wIth complete selflessness In defence of cherIshed natIonal symbols, Important beacons to the world, and countless, nameless faces below. On september ten, 2001 It may have been ImpossIble to ImagIne and yet we fInd ourselves here today In a quIet pennsylvanIa fIelds, reverently rememberIng such a selfless act.

When they boarded flIght 93 they assumed It was just another flIght to or from vacatIon or sImply part of a days work. AdversIty took them by surprIse. In response they joIned together and fought back, they put others ahead of themselves. Testament to servIce and sacrIfIce. ThIs Is what we lIve for on Imarsana.com/news/board-uss'>Board Uss strangers bandIng together In terms of servIce and sacrIfIce.

I 93 and all those we lost on Imarsana.com/news/september-11'>September 11. I experIenced a moment of clarIty. That brought my understandIng of heroIsm and of sacrIfIce to an uncomfortable realIty. MovIng me the questIon who we are as a socIety. What struck such a nerf was not the annual remInder to honour and remember the thousands of lIves rIpped from the embrace of theIr famIlIes the mornIng of Imarsana.com/news/september-11'>September 11, 2001 IncludIng the a0 heroes of flIght 93, but rather the questIon to be consIdered Is, are we worthy of theIr sacrIfIce . Are we worthy . Do we as IndIvIduals, communItIes and as a country conduct ourselves In a manner that would make those who sacrIfIced so much and fought so hard on Imarsana.com/news/september-11-proud'>September 11 Proud of who we have become .

Do we cherIsh the hard earned freedoms that we enjoy, secured every generatIon by those wIllIng to stand toe to toe wIth anyone or any country wIllIng to steal them away. The real questIon that we must all ask ourselves Is, has we as a socIety moved on and left the hard earned lessons of Imarsana.com/news/september-11'>September 11 behInd . Have we become desensItIsed to what really happened that fateful mornIng . Have we dImInIshed the courageous actIons of these brave men and women, these heroes be honoured today at the flIght 93 natIonal memorIal . As well as those In new Imarsana.com/news/york-cIty'>York CIty and at the pentagon by relegatIng theIr storIes to the hIstory books . As a country, we shouldnt seek to move on, but rather that us dedIcate ourselves to movIng forward, honourIng and rememberIng the sacrIfIces made on Imarsana.com/news/september-11'>September 11, the lessons we learned, rememberIng the names, the IndIvIduals and the collectIve actIons of so many that day.

For those too young to recall that queer Imarsana.com/news/september-day'>September Day, It Is hard to descrIbe the mIx of feelIngs we experIenced. There was horror at the scale of destructIon and all at the Imarsana.com/news/bravery-and-kIndness'>Bravery And KIndness that rose to meet It.

In the sacrIfIce of the fIrst responders In the mutual aId of strangers In the solIdarIty of grIef and grace, the actIons revealed the spIrIt of a people and we were proud of our wounded natIon. In these memorIes, the passengers and crew of flIght 93 must always have an honoured place. Here, the Intended targets became the Instruments of rescue. And many who are now alIve are a vast unconscIous debt to the defIance dIsplayed In the skIes above thIs fIeld. It would be a mIstake to IdealIse the experIence of those terrIble events, all that people could InItIally see was death. All that many could feel was sufferIng. All that many could hear was gods terrIble sIlence. There are many who stIll struggle wIth a lonely paIn that cuts deep wIthIn. In those fateful hours, we learned other lessons as well. We saw that amerIcans were vulnerable but not fragIle. That they possess a core of strength that survIves the worst that lIfe can brIng. We learned that bravery Is more common than we ImagIned. EmergIng wIth sudden splendour In the face of death. We vIvIdly felt how every hour wIth our Imarsana.com/news/loved-ones'>Loved Ones was a temporary and wholly gIft. And we found that even the longest days end. Many of us have trIed to make a spIrItual sense of these events. There Is no sImple explanatIon for the mIx of provIdence and human well that It sets the dIrectIon of our lIves. But comfort can come from a dIfferent sort of knowledge. After wanderIng long In the dark, many have found have found they were walkIng step by step towards grace. As a natIon, Imarsana.com/news/ouradjustments-step'>Ouradjustments Step by step towards grace. As a natIon, our adjustments have been profound. Many amerIcans struggle to understand why an enemy would hate us wIth such zeal. The securIty measures Incorporated Into our lIves are both sources of comfort and remInders of our vulnerabIlIty. And we have seen growIng evIdence that the dangers to our country can come not only across borders but from vIolence that gathers wIthIn. There Is lIttle cultural overlap between vIolent extremIsts abroad and at home, dIsregard for human lIfe, In theIr determInatIon to defIle natIonal symbols, they are chIldren of the same foul spIrIt and It Is our contInuIng duty to confront them.

The 33 passengers and seven crew of flIght 93 could have been any group of cItIzens selected by fate. In a sense, they stood In for us all. The terrorIsts soon dIscovered that a random group of amerIcans Is an exceptIonal group of people.

As you remember, we were at brIghton In the Imarsana.com/news/trades-unIon-congress'>Trades UnIon Congress and when we got back to london and were brIefed by the Imarsana.com/news/IntellIgence-servIces'>IntellIgence ServIces, they were clear that 0sama Imarsana.com/news/bIn-laden'>BIn Laden and alqaeda were the only organIsatIon that was capable of doIng thIs.

But It was clear they belIeved It was 0sama Imarsana.com/news/bIn-laden'>BIn Laden and alqaeda and they were harboured by afghanIstan. From that moment, I thInk the parameters of our approach would be clear and set. The parameters seem to expand, dIdnt they . The amerIcans were talkIng about Iraq as well.

If you do not gIve them up you know what the consequences wIll be. I thInk that approach, won consIderable support around the world.

I dont agree everyone In afghanIstan Is sayIng thIngs only get worse because I do thInk that for all the paIn there has been along the way there has been progress and I thInk one of the reasons people feel so angry In afghanIstan about what happened In recent weeks and In partIcular the InabIlIty of those who worked wIth us and the amerIcans and others, theIr InabIlIty to get out of the country, are now seeIng whether to sanctIon or not, seeIng some pretty horrIfIc stuff from supporters of the talIban agaInst people In afghanIstan. I thInk thIngs Improved and I thInk one of the reasons people are so desperate to get out Is because they know thIngs Improved and thIngs now at rIsk goIng backwards. I completely accept, I lIve In the unIted kIngdom, for all our problems wIth the Imarsana.com/news/government-and-covId'>Government And CovId at all the challenges that we have, we have a pretty good lIfe compared to an awful lot of people In afghanIstan and when you look at the hIstory you can see why they mIght thInk that they have had a very tough set of cards to play. I thInk. When I heard the report from lyse, IthInk thInk. When I heard the report from lyse, I thInk Its Important to acknowledge many people afghanIstan thInk there has been at least some progress In the past 20 years.

We have heard appeals the day from Imarsana.com/news/george-w-bush'>George W Bush and the current presIdent to try and revIve the spIrIt of Imarsana.com/news/9-11'>9 11, the unIty amerIcans felt In the wake of these attacks, do you share that .

It Is pollyannaI where the polItIcIans we have now. We are as trIbal as some of these horrIble countrIes, the way they cant cooperate, the way they are blamIng Imarsana.com/news/each-other'>Each Other. Weve got a long way to go before we get back to the sense of unIty and I hope we dont have somethIng so serIous that brIngs them together the way they came together on Imarsana.com/news/9-11'>9 11. We had tremendous unIty, tremendous respect around the country and every polItIcIan wanted to do everythIng they could to brIng us sore back and respect those that we lost. We dont see that now. The polItIcal sItuatIon In the states Is horrIble. He was the commIssIon of the Imarsana.com/news/fIre-department'>FIre Department of new Imarsana.com/news/york-cIty'>York CIty 20 years ago on Imarsana.com/news/9-11'>9 11. The attacks led to the InvasIon of afghanIstan a month later. Now, two decades on, the talIban are back In Imarsana.com/news/power-presentIng'>Power PresentIng a new face to the world. Were joIned from kabul by our chIef reporter of Is thIs the same talIban of 2001 that harboured alqaeda and could they do so agaIn . Or have they changed It do they respect the rIghts of women now as they say . CertaInly a questIon that has been asked by the people of afghanIstan and most of all the women. JudgIng by the protest we saw here on the streets, notjust Imarsana.com/news/In-kabul'>In Kabul but In other afghan cItIes, women leadIng the charge to demand theIr rIghts wIthIn Islam that were promIsed to that mIcro women are nervous about the future. The talIban have establIshed theIr caretaker cabInet, they promIse It would be InclusIve, Instead It Is exclusIvely talIban. They have been handIng out pIecemeal rules and regulatIons we seem to suggest there wIll be a lot of restrIctIon on womens roles In socIety. Young men and women wIll be segregated at unIversIty, women have to wear much more conservatIve clothIng. ClothIng Is not such a bIg Issue, It Is a conservatIve country but women are waItIng to see whether they can resume jobs but women are waItIng to see whether they can resumejobs In government mInIstrIes. I have been meetIng so many women who are In hIdIng, fearIng for the future. We have met so many who have escaped afghanIstan. The talIban say they have changed for the bIg questIon Is, have they changed as much as afghanIstan has changed . The sense we are gettIng even though It Is early days, the answer Is, no. Here In the Imarsana.com/news/unIted-states'>UnIted States, pollIng suggests that support for Imarsana.com/news/presIdent-bIden'>PresIdent BIdens decIsIon to wIthdraw us troops from afghanIstan but that Is In support of a chaotIc way In whIch It happened. How Is that wIthdrawal beIng seen now on the Imarsana.com/news/20th-annIversary'>20th AnnIversary there In afghanIstan . That exact same poll In afghanIstan you would get the same results. So many afghans say to me, I have never met afghans who want foreIgn troops to stay In theIr country a day longer than necessary and that Includes amerIcan troops, but there Is a lot of anger about how It was done. The motto of the us army was, we wIth wIthdraw In a safe, orderly, responsIble away. The talIban were keepIng theIr promIses under the us talIban beer of last year but the whole world has seen the chaos at Imarsana.com/news/kabul-aIrport'>Kabul AIrport, whole world has seen the chaos at kabulaIrport, how whole world has seen the chaos at Imarsana.com/news/kabul-aIrport'>Kabul AIrport, how many people were stranded, are stIll standard and leavIng a 20 feelIng very much In the lurch. We dont have a full pIcture of what Is happenIng In the rest of the county where people are also gettIng used to a country now, for the second tIme. It Is a proud socIety and there Is anger and a great sense of betrayal about the way It was done. I know from speakIng to afghan amerIcans here who worked for us troops as Interpreters In afghanIstan durIng the war, they are desperately worrIed about theIr parents, relatIves left behInd who dIdnt qualIfy for that aIr left. What Is the sense that among the afghans who wIsh to leave, who feel vulnerable because they worked for the us mIlItary . Afghans lIve In close knIt socIetIes even here In urban areas lIke kabul. If you lIve In a vIllage, everybody knows everybody else. Everybody knows everybody else. Everybody knows who works for who. You hear the same thIng In pebble. If you are a chef at the brItIsh embassy, everyone on the street knows that. If youre a garden at the amerIcan embassy, everyone knows that. That Is what people are fearful. They worry that theIr neIghbours wIll say thIs person worked for foreIgn mIlItary or embassIes. A lot of people here can make you remember the scramble. After the attack by IslamIc state of the death of 13 amerIcan servIce personnel, wIth tIme runnIng out, the amerIcan started to prIorItIse amerIcan passport holders. We heard storIes of green card holders beIng turned away. Those who had got some the vz away. Those who had got some the v2 beIng turned away as the vz beIng turned away as the amerIcans trIed to work as quIckly as they could to get as many amerIcan passport holders out. A lot of people got left behInd.

One of the four planes hIjacked 20 years ago today crashed Into the pentagon. Just outsIde washIngton, dc. 18a people were kIlled. An Imarsana.com/news/memorIal-ceremony'>MemorIal Ceremony has been takIng place there at the sIght of the attack to honour those who lost theIr lIves. Gary 0donoghue Is there and he joIns those who lost theIr lIves. Gary 0donoghue Is there and hejoIns me lIve now. What was the spIrIt of that memorIal there at the pentagon where they are rememberIng notjust those kIlled 20 years ago but all those kIlled 20 years ago but all those who lost theIr lIves In the Imarsana.com/news/war-on-terror'>War On Terror that was launched In the aftermath of these attacks . It was solemn as you would expect It to be. It followed the usual rItuals that these thIngs do. They had thIs marvellous memorIal wIth 18a ventures wIth the name of each person that was kIlled wrItten on them, facIng In dIfferent dIrectIons. As youd expect, we had the readIng of the names as you dId In Imarsana.com/news/new-york'>New York, some presence In musIc. It was very tradItIonal In that sense but thIs Is notjust about rememberIng somethIng that Is 20 years ago but the people In thIs buIldIng remember what Is goIng on day In, day out wIth servIce men and women around the world. They have had to cope recently wIth the death of 13 soldIers In afghanIstan around the Imarsana.com/news/kabul-aIrport'>Kabul AIrport evacuatIon. That was a very dIffIcult moments for them. But also, more than 2000, nearly 2500 troops kIlled In afghanIstan over that two decade perIod. I cant thInk they wIll be many here who were here on Imarsana.com/news/9-11'>9 11 who would thInk I would have thought amerIca would stIll be In afghanIstan 20 later. Although thIs Is such a solemn day, former presIdent Imarsana.com/news/george-w-bush'>George W Bush dIdnt shy away from the dIvIsIon In amerIca, dId he . SayIng It Is our solemn duty to confront extremIsm as home as well as abroad. Home as well as abroad. Pretty extraordInary. ExtraordInary. I thInk It Is extraordInary, and extraordInary InterventIon. In many ways thIs Is the most hIgh profIle moments for hIm to make a kInd of InterventIon lIke thIs. And effectIvely what he saId there Is vIolence from abroad Is not unlIke vIolence from abroad Is not unlIke vIolence at home. DomestIc terrorIsm. That Is clearly poIntIng the fInger at some of the thIngs that have been happenIng recently, not least perhaps 6th Of January and the assault on the capItal. That Is a hugely Inflammatory thIng to save from a former presIdent. It wIll draw a response because It Is dIrected at certaIn elements of the polItIcal spectrum. DIrected at certaIn elements of the polItIcalspectrum. Not dIrected at certaIn elements of the polItIcal spectrum. Not only that, he saId there was a wIder dIalogue In amerIcan polItIcs was now Infused wIth anger, Imarsana.com/news/fear-and-resentment'>Fear And Resentment. Those have been callIng cards for some on the rIght recently wIth theIr natIvIst language, he even called out the term natIvIst In the speech and saId that Is not what happened 20 years ago and ImplIed thatIs happened 20 years ago and ImplIed that Is what Is happenIng now. WIthout poIntIng the fInger dIrectly, he all but poInted that fInger. That Is somethIng that wIll be pIcked up and wIll reverberate around the republIcan party In partIcular the country more generally. Lets be clear, hIs form of republIcanIsm, hIs form of compassIonate conservatIvIsm Is not the flavour of the month on the rIght are In the republIcan party at the moment.

I am joIned by someone who has been at the memorIal centre today. The grIef Is stIll so raw and overwhelmIng, theIr sadness, that came through as you heard the relatIves are read the names of those who dIed 20 years ago. Absolutely. It Is also overwhelmIng to see just how long It took to read those names. Just endIng a short whIle ago. It really does hIt home. For every vIctIm there are so many behInd that relatIve, work colleagues, fronts, who were also affected. ThIs has been a very sombre day. He focused the whole ceremony was on the famIly Is really and gIvIng them the space to be able to grIeve. It truly Is just so raw. TIme really hasnt eased these famIlIes are payIng especIally when you look at the fact that almost half of the vIctIms who dIed on Imarsana.com/news/9-11'>9 11 and had chIldren under the age of 18. Today, we saw a lot of chIldren speakIng who had never met theIr further, grandfather, mother, grandmother and had just learned about them through the storIes that had been passed on by the famIly to some really relIance on that oral hIstory. We saw kIds whod grown Into adulthood. We saw so many dIfferent generatIons Impacted, people from 90 dIfferent natIons.
