Perspective

Data Points:
- 2402 people died at Pearl Harbor on December 7th.
- 2966 died on September 11th.
Fact: More people died in the terrorist attack on 9/11 than in the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941.
My intention is not to belittle or defocus attention on this horrific anniversary.
It is to show that this terrifying caliber of evil persists; the same degree of blind savagery was perpetrated on both occasions.
God help us, we pray, but the work remains now, as it did then, ours to complete.
