Title: "September 12 because One Day is not Enough"
Episode Description:
Join Ray Doustdar in this special episode of the Deep Shallow Dive podcast as we pay tribute to the 9/11 Attacks, not just on September 11, but also on September 12. It's been 22 years since that tragic day, and every year, we pause to remember and honor the lives lost. This year, RayD extends the commemoration, shedding light on the enduring impact of that fateful event. In a touching and insightful episode, RayD brings you exclusive interviews with former President George W. Bush and General Wesley Clark, providing a unique perspective on the aftermath of 9/11 and the resilience of a nation.
Former President George W. Bush:
During the interviews, President Bush opens up about the decisions that led to the United States' military interventions in Afghanistan and Iraq, driven by the belief in the existence of weapons of mass destruction. However, a decade later, he made a candid admission on CNN, revealing that such weapons were never found. This revelation adds a thought-provoking layer to the conversation about the post-9/11 era and the consequences of those fateful decisions.
General Wesley Clark:
General Wesley Clark, who played a crucial role in the post-9/11 military landscape, shares his experiences from a pivotal moment just days after the attacks. He recounts his time at the Pentagon when officials shared a plan to attack seven countries in nine years as part of a broader strategy. This revelation sheds light on the complex geopolitical landscape that emerged in the wake of 9/11. Tune in to this heartfelt tribute as we reflect on their experiences, the nation's response, and the importance of remembering, not just on one day, but for as long as it takes.
Summary:
This poiniant tribute encourages us to remember and reflect not only on one day but for as long as it takes, honoring the memory of those affected by the 9/11 Attacks and the lasting impact on our world.
