It’s been 25 years since Al-Qaeda launched a horrific attack on our nation, killing nearly 3,000 Americans in the World Trade Center and the first responders who ran into those crumbling towers to save others. Remembering those lost on this tragic day is not enough. We must act. The radical Islamist ideology that motivated the jihadis who launched that attack remains the greatest near and long-term threat to our freedom and western civilization. It is the same ideology that fuels Hamas, ISIS, al-Qaeda, Boko Haram, al-Shabaab, al-Nusra, and others. Too many of our leaders have forgotten who the enemy is. We cannot afford to. We cannot allow ourselves to be terrorized into silence. We must never forget.
#NeverForget

Tulsi Gabbard reflects on the 25th anniversary of the Al-Qaeda attack on the World Trade Center, emphasizing the ongoing threat of radical Islamist ideology.
