Political Quotes

“as we stood outside of the building, witnessing the devastation, listening to the descriptions, the fact is that from the outside we can only see a part of what is going on. There is vastly more destruction inside the building as it is spread out and there are dead bodies there. I was struck by the comment of one worker. He had been there when the plane went in the building. He had seen the building moments after its first impact. He said to me his most difficult moment was not then and not when he was told perhaps there is a second plane en route and their lives were in danger. His toughest moment was when he went home last night and his 5-year old asked him who would do this and why would they perpetrate such an act, why would they bring down an airline, why would they seek to kill so many people. It is incomprehensible when you see the death, when you see the devastation, and when you understand it. But make no mistake, our opponents need to look no further than the roof of this building. The American flag, the symbol of freedom, Old Glory was there yesterday. It is there today. It will be there tomorrow. We will not surrender until we have found them and we have exacted retribution.”
