DAVID MARCUS: Calling 9/11 'inevitable' is same as justifying it, and it is disgraceful
Milot Kiros, who defeated Rep. Diana DeGette in Denver, called 9/11 an inevitable consequence of American foreign policy in the Middle East.
The parade of Democratic Socialists ousting incumbent Democrats rolled on in Denver on Tuesday night with upstart 29-year-old, Ethiopian-born Milot Kiros defeating Rep. Diana DeGette, first elected to the seat before 9/11. Her would-be replacement justifies those attacks.
Kiros and her commie allies may use the word "inevitable" as a euphemism for "justified," but in this context, they mean exactly the same disgraceful thing.
In a recent interview, the socialist Kiros was asked if 9/11 was an inevitable consequence of American foreign policy.

"Inevitable in the sense that we destabilized a lot of the Middle East, which led people to believe that another act of violence was the only response," Kiros replied. "Our responsibility is to get rid of those conditions that lead to violence in the first place."
Let’s be clear, by calling the cold-blooded murder of nearly 3,000 Americans "inevitable," Kiros is saying that Usama bin Laden had no other choice but to commit this massacre, and further, that if only the United States had acted differently, then maybe Bin Laden could have avoided it.
That is absolutely a justification for 9/11, because if the United States created the conditions that made it impossible for anything but a 9/11 style attack to happen, then how can we blame Bin Laden? He had no choice, right?

Some will argue that Kiros is simply stating the cause of 9/11, not justifying that cause. Obviously, the cause of 9/11 was resentment and anger at U.S. foreign policy. But when you say that cause made the attack "inevitable," you are saying Al Qaeda only did what it had to do.
With all due respect to Kiros, who was 4 years old when the attack on our nation that to this day still leaves searing emptiness in the hearts of the tens of thousands who lost loved ones, there was nothing inevitable about it. Not one thing.
For decades before 9/11, America sought peace in the region time and again. In fact, it was in 2000 that former President Bill Clinton says then-Palestinian leader Yasser Arrafat "walked away from a once-in-a-lifetime peace opportunity." A year later, Clinton’s efforts would be rewarded in American blood.

I’m sorry, but Kiros and her purple-haired communist band of overeducated theater kids are not going to make America the bad guy of 9/11. We know exactly who the bad guy was, which is why we celebrated when former President Barack Obama took him out.
In fairness to Kiros, while she is clearly saying that Bin Laden had justification for 9/11 based on America’s actions, she isn’t quite as ghoulish as podcaster and apparent kingmaker of the Democratic Party, Hasan Piker, who says America "deserved" 9/11.
One can believe, as supporters of Israel do, that military action leading to civilian casualties is justified even though no civilian deserves to die, but clearly Piker does believe our 3,000 countrymen had that fate coming.
This attempt by the far-left Marxists to make 9/11 a day of shame for Americans is not likely to work outside their small bubbles, even if they say "inevitable" instead of "justified." Because even 25 years later, what that day means to most Americans is pride in the sacrifice of those who gave their lives.
Of course, for the Democratic Socialists, 9/11 is not about New York, or Washington, D.C., or Shanksville, Pa. Like everything else, it is about the poor terrorists in the Middle East who, in the DSA’s depraved minds, have no choice but to kill Americans.
Just as, for those of us aged enough to remember the Cold War, it seems crazy that we must explain again why communism is bad, for those of us who truly remember 9/11, it seems crazy to blame the victims. But here we are.
Not every act of murder and terrorism committed by jihadis across the globe is the inevitable result of American foreign policy, which by the way, has done more to uplift the freedom and prosperity of the global poor than any nation in history.
Don’t let the communists get away with this shameful euphemism. Words mean things, and what Kiros and her ilk are clearly saying is that the attack on America was made inevitable and therefore justified, by America and its people. And it’s disgusting.
