Dear Editor:
Regarding Steve Gorman’s letter in the June 17 edition of The Dispatch:
No, Mr. Mitchell does not “need to be reminded” of 9/11, although apparently Mr. Gorman needs to be reminded that the number of deaths was 3,000, not 5,000.
Characterize it however you want, however, it does not automatically justify any conceivable action the president might wish to take; there are good responses and bad ones. Bush did start two hot wars as I said in my column.
One of them is against a country which a bipartisan commission, appointed by the president himself, has just concluded after an exhaustive two-year investigation had nothing whatever to do with 9/11.
It is not the liberals who have forgotten 9/11; it is the defenders of Bush’s catastrophic foreign policy blunders who have forgotten that Bush and Cheney have been using 9/11 as the excuse to implement their pipedream of remaking the Middle East into a neoconservative fantasyland.
Robert B. Mitchell, Morgan Hill
