On the 20th anniversary of 9/11 it’s important to recognize the establishment’s spectacular failure in responding to it effectively. The only thing worse is if we let this moment go by without noting that. Waging war should now be replaced by waging peace. google.com/amp/s/www.vox.com…

The failure in Afghanistan comes from Biden's rapid withdrawal that will end up setting back women's rights in the region. "Waging Peace" cannot happen in the region with a regime that treats women like property without equal rights to men. axios.com/taliban-gender-seg…

Let's recognize: 1) 9/11 was a complex, difficult problem of immense proportions. 2) It was not easy to find the right way to deal with a tragedy like that. 3) no matter what you do, some won't like it. 4) The easiest thing in the world is watch on the side line and criticize.

In a sane world waging peace is the way forward for humanity. But with a capitalist economy, for long term peace to even be considered as an option, you need to make it at least as profitable as long term war.

I listened to your talk about Islam and Afghanistan on YouTube. I met a Sufi the summer before 9/11 happened. I’ve learned a lot about Islam after practicing it off and on for the past 20 years. Questions will be answered if anyone would like to ask.
