Even though I never had the chance to meet you, you will always be my hero. | ||
I've heard so many amazing stories about you and I am blessed to have such a great role model as my grandpa. | ||
I miss and love you so much. | ||
You are forever in our hearts. | ||
And my aunt, Hardee Casey Parbu. | ||
My family and I miss her so much. | ||
She was always filled with so much joy and cared for her loved ones. | ||
I am honored to have known her. | ||
We truly cherish all the great memories we shared with her. | ||

To all the victims and their families, I sincerely hope today you all can find some peace. | ||

Nathaniel Lawson And my father, Brendan Francis McCabe. | ||
I remember the day before 9-11 just as vividly as I remember the 11th itself. | ||
My father took me and my brothers to the store to get soccer cleats and clothes for the fall season. | ||
Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think that he would be ripped out of our lives less than 24 hours later. | ||
I remember it like it was yesterday, but it's been 20 years. | ||
Things have not been the same without you, Dad. | ||
You never got to see us grow up, chase our dreams, graduate school. | ||
Never got to help us become adults. | ||
You never got to see your nieces and nephews and younger cousins grow up and get married and start families of their own. | ||
All we have left are memories of you, how amazing you were as a father and a person. | ||
It sucks that the younger kids in the family will never ever get to hang out with Uncle Bonebender firsthand. | ||
All they have are stories to learn about you from. | ||
There's been a lot of pain and heartache over the last 20 years. | ||
And we all miss you like crazy every day. | ||
From your brothers and sisters, nieces, nephews, your cousins, your wife, son, and your daughter. | ||
We all miss you every day, Dad. | ||
It sucks that a bunch of cowards had to take the lives of innocent people who were just trying to provide for their family. | ||
We'll meet again one day, and it'll be nothing but tears of joy when we do. | ||
I love you, Dad. | ||
We all do. | ||
unidentified
|
And I know you're up there, uh, looking down on us. | |
Never forget, God bless America, God bless New York, and God bless all the first responders that gave their lives that day. | ||
This is our city. | ||
You can't take down New York ever. | ||
After 20 years, Mom, we're still carrying on all the love and the traditions that you've implanted in our hearts. | ||
You would think after 20 years, it would get easier. | ||
The last 20 years, you lost that on birthdays, holidays, anniversaries, Sunday dinners, celebrating your favorite season, fall, and our lovely Florida vacations, and watching your eight grandchildren grow up, and watching them be born. | ||
The missing goes on and on. | ||
And all we have to go on with our lives, we have. | ||
And all of your children are successful. | ||
And that's a testament to you, Mom. | ||
Your absence has created a huge void in our hearts and our lives. | ||
And that will never be filled again. | ||
We miss you so much, Mom. | ||
It's unbearable. | ||
God bless America. | ||
Please keep us safe. | ||
I love you. | ||

You have been and continue to be missed every single day the last 20 years. | ||
We will never forget your life or any of the lives lost on or as a result of or in response to 9-11. | ||
But let us also never forget what came right after that horrific day. | ||
An unparalleled sense of unity, of pride and love of our country, of amazing compassion of each other, whether family, friend or complete stranger. | ||
And in our grief and our strength, we were not divided based on our voting preference, the colour of our skin, or our moral or religious beliefs. | ||
That was the United States I fell in love with, and that's the United States I proudly chose to become a citizen of. | ||
God bless all those lives lost, God bless our troops, and God bless America. | ||
Why don't we know you through stories told and your legacy? | ||
But I will make sure to let that legacy live on and to never forget you. | ||
I am proud to hold your first name as my own and I'm mostly proud to be able to carry on said legacy for generations to come. | ||
We love you and we miss you. | ||

There is not a single day goes by that I don't think of you. | ||
Losing such a beautiful soul and a kind spirit more than words can express. | ||
If I have known missing you would hurt so much that I wouldn't have let you go. | ||
I miss my best friend. | ||
You understand and love me unconditionally. | ||
You are unreplaceable. | ||
All these years since I lost you, I was devastated and hopeless. | ||
Although you were gone, but you always have guided me to be strong and courageous to move on. | ||
Losing you is a deep pain that is unexplainable. | ||
You always will be in my heart and will never be forgotten. | ||
I love you deeply, brother. | ||
You will be forever with me until we meet again. | ||
And my uncle, Walwyn Wellington Stewart Jr. | ||
To this day, we are still inspired by your heroism, kindness, and selflessness. | ||
Your memory will live on in our hearts forever. | ||
We love you and we miss you so much. | ||

Okay, this is Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
The special coverage of the reading of the names is very powerful. | ||
We're going to go back to that momentarily. | ||
I want to go now to David Zier, who's at Ground Zero. | ||
We're going to have a few quick interviews over the next hour, but we're going to continue with this very powerful reading of the names of the victims at Ground Zero and also Pentagon and in Shanksville. | ||
David, the question I want to ask you is you went down to 9-11, you went down to Ground Zero a few days afterwards. | ||
I just want you to put the audience in the mind frame. | ||
We see this beautiful spot today, incredibly moving ceremony, commemoration. | ||
What was it like when you went down a day or two after the attack? | ||
Well, I was at the base of the debris field volunteering and, you know, I walked down from the Javits Center. | ||
I went down there to volunteer with the steelworkers and people, you know, I got online, but they said they were only taking steelworkers. | ||
Steelworkers. | ||
So I went downtown. | ||
I walked with a group of guys and we got right to the base of the pile and we helped out handing out water and stuff. | ||
You know, the debris field was 16 acres and I was right where that superstructure was sticking out of the ground a little bit back from Ray's Pizza, famous Ray's Pizza, where you saw all that ash and dust and soot on the windows and the sill and people took refuge in there. | ||
And one of the most moving things were passing the Marine Terminal. | ||
Three, four, five hundred ambulances just sitting there. | ||
Nobody moving. | ||
No, you know, there was no rescue effort, right? | ||
There was a very few survivors after the initial attack. | ||
And one thing I just talked to a Chicago firefighter here, you know, and I saw these big burly guys coming out of the pile. | ||
And it said Chicago FD on it, and there were like a whole platoon of guys. | ||
And, you know, there was a sense of hopelessness and despair that we're not going to find anybody alive. | ||
And, you know, firefighters from Washington State. | ||
It was really devastating. | ||
And the smells, I'll never get out of my head. | ||
And, you know, I had to take a few minutes before, you know, to collect myself. | ||
But, you know, what's gone down here On the rebuilding, even though it took 10 plus years, has been extraordinary. | ||
And the buildings, I met with Larry Silverstein, the owner of the Trade Center and the builder of the new buildings and Building 7, and explained to me about the 13,000 foot PSI per square foot concrete around the elevator shafts and the stairwells in these new buildings and how they can't get taken down easy. | ||
And what's, the redevelopment down here is extraordinary. | ||
So, definitely very moving. | ||
And if I could just add, you know, last night we interviewed members of Engine 3 and Ladder 12, and as we were doing the interviews with these guys, you know, a woman walked in right in off the street and said, listen, because you said these memories are seared into their heads, right? | ||
These images, whether you saw it on TV or here, and this lady came in to thank the firefighters. | ||
20 years later, they're still thanking them. | ||
It was very moving. | ||
David, tonight we're going to have a special at 8 o'clock with Rudy Giuliani and Bernice Carrick. | ||
We're going to play some of your interviews. | ||
David's here. | ||
He's got some just incredible interviews with firefighters. | ||
David, before we go back to the reading of the names, what's the general, it seems like so solemn over there at Ground Zero itself. | ||
It seems like people have really pulled together on this 20th anniversary. | ||
Is that the feeling you have where you are at Ground Zero? | ||
Yeah, well, they're about halfway done with the readings, right? | ||
And, you know, people are breaking down. | ||
People are breaking down, you know, during thanking their mom and their father and asking to keep our country safe. | ||
But, you know, we're a little bit, like, right outside of where the ceremony is. | ||
You know, people are socially gathering, you know, Harris Bar is packed again, and there are firefighters from all over the country here, and people. | ||
So, you know, I think it's a combination of the two. | ||
Remember the fallen, but, you know, get some closure moving forward. | ||
David Zira, they'll be back to you throughout the day. | ||
Thank you very much. | ||
Real America's Voice and Trump Reporter. | ||
We're going to go back to the reading of the names. | ||
We've got Raheem Kassam, Norah Bin Laden, and Admiral Sonny Masso coming up. | ||

Lawrence T. Stack. | ||
He held me in his arms, his first of six grandchildren. | ||
Seven days later, he was gone from the city and family he loved. | ||
We will love and miss you forever. | ||
Never forget 9-11 and our first responders who protect our city every day. | ||
We thank our military and our first responders, to our country, and God bless America. | ||
Thank you. | ||
Debra Merrick. | ||
Thank you. | ||
OK, we're going to break in just for a moment of the reading in the names and down at Ground Zero. | ||
I want to bring in now Noor Bin Laden. | ||
Noor, can you give us your thoughts, observations of today? | ||
Hi, Steve. | ||
First of all, I'd like to thank you for having me on. | ||
I realize that many people don't necessarily expect to hear from me on this day. | ||
My heart is very much in America today, even though I'm sitting here in Switzerland. | ||
Thank you for having me on. | ||
I feel I'm a bit more with you over there, albeit virtually, on this incredibly moving day. | ||
Nor, how can we work to make sure this never happens again? | ||
You know, this lady who was reading the names talked about unity and how in the aftermath of 9-11 the American people pulled together and showed, you know, tremendous unity in the face of such tragedy and horror. | ||
And I think this is absolutely what we need right now more than ever in America. | ||
Noor, I want to thank you. | ||
Didn't you work through a statement? | ||
Do you have a chance to read that? | ||
I know we're going to put it up in the live chat, but if you want to, why don't you go ahead and read your statement? | ||
I know you worked on it quite a while. | ||
Sure. | ||
It's a statement that I actually published last year, but it really encapsulates the essence of what 9-11 represents, to me at least. | ||
So I'll go ahead and read that. | ||
For the past 20 years, not a day has gone by since this horrific, tragic day that I haven't thought of you, America, and grieved privately with you for all the innocent lives lost. | ||
This is in part due to this inexplicable turn of fate that links me to these atrocious attacks, but more importantly, because of my love for your country. | ||
As I've written to you in my letter, the values and feelings I hold are diametrically opposed to the name that I bear. | ||
I, for one, will never forget the direct victims of this tragedy and those who lost their lives from complications subsequently. | ||
The heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice to help those in danger. | ||
The first responders, the brave members of the FDNY, NYPD, and Porth Authority. | ||
The survivors and those who rebuilt the ruins and rallied together, showing tremendous courage in the face of horror. | ||
Those left behind who miss their loved ones every day. | ||
Today my thoughts and prayers are with the victims' families, especially, and America, as it always has been and always will. | ||
Thank you. | ||
Thank you very much for joining us. | ||
Noor bin Laden. | ||
Let's return to the Ground Zero and the reading of the names. | ||
Thank you, Steve. | ||

|
You know, I'm not from this country and I'm not going to pretend to know how it felt to be in New York or in Shanksville or at the Pentagon that day, but I can tell people what it felt like from an ally. | |
We regard ourselves as one of the most critical allies of the United States on the world stage and watching not just our strategic partner, You know, our moral and historical part to be attacked in such a way was, for a young man like me, I think it was when I was 14 or 15, was just bewildering. | ||
And then getting to grips with everything, you know, I wrote an article this morning about it, getting to grips with everything that took place over the next 20 years. | ||
Everything had the backdrop of 9-11. | ||
Everything had the backdrop of what happened after 9-11. | ||
When the iPhone was invented, people were dying in Afghanistan. | ||
When SpaceX launched, people were dying in Afghanistan. | ||
Katrina, Afghanistan. | ||
The incident that occurred that morning wasn't just isolated to that morning or the time afterwards. | ||
I think one of the greatest things we can do to honor the people who lost their lives on 9-11 and since as a result of 9-11 is Is to remember, you know, what it wrought You know 20 years of heartbreak, 20 years abroad with coffins coming home, 20 years of opportunity cost for this country, 20 years of you know some of the most | ||
divisive politics this country, this world has ever seen and you know I still remember watching President Trump's inauguration in 2016 and that line when he said, you know, this American carnage stops here. | ||
That for me really was supposed to be the moment that America was able to You know, shrug off some of the people who had taken them into these wars and in a lot of ways created the conditions under which America was deployed around the world in the first instance, as of course, you know, Islamic terrorists often use as an excuse to attack the U.S. | ||
But then, you know, what we saw as a result of that moment up on Capitol Hill, you know, this man, this very American man, right? | ||
A very, very American man. | ||
Bellowing across the National Mall that the American carnage was over. | ||
You know, into the ears of Abraham Lincoln and into the ears of Thomas Jefferson. | ||
Across that reflecting pool. | ||
And that was the moment for me that America had to grasp with both hands. | ||
The globalists who took us into those wars and fought those wars and in a lot of ways we lost those wars. | ||
The same people, the same muddied interests, the same military industrial complex and the same globalist group that set about undoing President Trump's plans to end the American carnage. | ||
And how did it end? | ||
How did it really end? | ||
Well, it ended with Joe Biden committing what is probably going to go down in history as a war crime. | ||
And it ended with more Americans dying in a place they probably shouldn't have been for this long at all. | ||
I think 9-11 is of course about those heroes of the day and the tragedy, there isn't a word for it really, of that day but it's also about the next 20 years of heartbreak and that's I think what a lot of people will be reflecting on today. | ||
You see the arc of the people's lives that have changed. | ||
Very, very moving. | ||
We're going to go back to the reading of the names, but the solemnity of this event. | ||
I just didn't think of the change, the arc of your life. | ||
I remember Maureen told me that this is when she got inspired as a little girl. | ||
I think she was six or seven. | ||
Actually, she's a little older than that to go into the military. | ||
So it's a change of the arc of people's lives, what happened, the commemoration. | ||
We're going to go back. | ||
Raheem, stick around. | ||
We're going to have continual coverage throughout the day here in Ruhr and Monarchs' Voice. | ||
We're going to go back to the reading of the names. | ||
Then we're going to return and talk to Admiral Masow about the Pentagon, what happened that day. | ||
Let's go back to the reading of the names of Ground Zero. | ||

Carry on. | ||
Okay, I think you can see by the scale of this, we're in the second hour of the reading of the names, and they're going to continue for quite a while. | ||
By the way, the live coverage here on Rural America's Voice is going to continue after the end of the war at 2 o'clock. | ||
We'll be back at 8 o'clock tonight. | ||
Bernie Kerrick, Mayor Giuliani, a very special dinner commemoration speakers of the individuals that were the command center for 9-11 on that day, the horrific day at the World Trade Center. | ||
Want to make sure that we go full coverage. | ||
One of the things that doesn't get enough coverage, I think, is the attack on the Pentagon. | ||
I want to bring in now Admiral Sonny Masso, who was there that day. | ||
Sonny, we only got a couple of minutes before we go back to readings, but walk people through the attack when the plane hit the Pentagon. | ||
Walk us through what the heroes inside the Pentagon did to really make sure that more lives are not lost. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, to begin with, we didn't really have, where we were struck, first responders for Many, many hours. | |
So survivors had to be the first responders. | ||
And fundamentally, the Navy Command Center, which is the heartbeat of the Navy OPNAV staff, as you well know, was functionally destroyed. | ||
And we lost almost 90% of all of our naval losses came in that very space. | ||
And basically, I was there with the technology of a RIM pager. | ||
Was able to keep in communication with my folks who were in turn able to keep in communications with the big Navy, CNO, CNO's office, the Director of Operations, Vice Admiral Tim Keating. | ||
We deployed people to CIDAR, which is an alternate command center. | ||
We did all the things we needed to do while rescuing, not just our own people, where we were able to. | ||
But also the people in the floors above the army losses. | ||
We created human safety nets and people were jumping from the second, third, fourth floors into our arms in some manner. | ||
No one was injured from their falls. | ||
We did our jobs in that respect. | ||
It was a really destructive day. | ||
It was a surprise. | ||
You know, I think you would be proud of how your Navy responded, not just in that space, but globally. | ||
We turned ships around. | ||
We brought the George Washington Strike Group into New York Harbor, right off Coney Island. | ||
We were able to do some things that I think you'd be very proud of. | ||
Admiral Maslow, how did it go from just being a regular day to all of a sudden, instantaneously, a massive jet plowing into the Pentagon, plowing into the Navy Command Center? | ||
Walk us through those first couple of minutes when you realized that something, that this was one of the most, if not the most extraordinary thing in your life, had just happened. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, the most common answer that almost everyone gives is the first plane that hit the tower We thought maybe it was a Cessna. | |
We didn't connect with an airline. | ||
And that we thought it might have been an accident. | ||
There had been an accident. | ||
A plane had flown into the Empire State Building 30 years before. | ||
And of course, it really got our attention profoundly when the second plane hit. | ||
And we saw the destruction there. | ||
Uh, when, uh, when we were working, we were trying to get things coordinated, doing the normal, uh, activities of organizing our thoughts, uh, talking to the national command authorities, things like this to just find out, is this going to be an elevated, uh, defense condition, you know, things of this nature. | ||
And then, uh, all of a sudden, uh, you know, we were struck by flight 77 and, uh, the fuselage actually punched through, uh, through the command center. | ||
And in specific areas, people were lost immediately. | ||
And in others, it was a function of the 22,000 pounds of jet fuel. | ||
So for the first instance, Steve, we were really thinking about our own survival. | ||
And just to make it very blunt, all senses were engaged. | ||
You were smelling smoke. | ||
You were tasting smoke. | ||
You were hearing horrific screams and cries from the injured. | ||
You were feeling the heat. | ||
And the whole idea shortly after, you had to dismiss that right away. | ||
And the question is, who can we help and how fast can we get there in the midst of this horrific fire? | ||
And of course, with the exposure to the outside air and the elements between the C and D rings of the Pentagon, the fire accelerated profoundly and made rescue attempts not impossible. | ||
And we did a really nice job with that, but it made it very difficult. | ||
Admiral Massey, your personal bravery and focus that day is remembered by all, so thank you, and thank you very much for coming on the war room and sharing those memories. | ||
