Biden Criticized for 9/11 Anniversary Location Choice
President Biden Faces Criticism for 9/11 Anniversary Plans
Last year, President Joe Biden vowed to “never forget” the lives lost in the 9/11 terror attacks. However, this year, he is being accused of breaking that promise. Instead of visiting the usual 9/11 memorials, Biden is attending a ceremony in Alaska, thousands of miles away from Ground Zero.
In a tweet, Biden acknowledged the significance of the day, stating, “Today, we remember the 2,977 precious lives stolen from us on 9/11 and reflect on all that was lost in the fire and ash that September morning.” However, many have criticized his decision to be absent from the memorial sites.
Biden attending the 9/11 memorial in Alaska is like going to the beach to commemorate the Titanic sinking. It’s a little off, to say the least

9/11 Families United chair Terry Strada expressed her disappointment, stating, “He is now just saying that flippantly that he doesn’t have to come to any of the sites and commemorate the loss with the families. That’s terrible.” Retired Air Force Lt. Col. Donald Arias, who lost his brother in the attacks, also criticized Biden’s absence, saying, ”We can do without that.”
The decision to skip the 9/11 memorials has sparked a wave of criticism on social media, with many questioning the president’s priorities.
Today, President Biden chose not to participate in any of the 9/11 memorials and instead visited Alaska, where he has implemented restrictions on oil drilling. Giving Americans the double fingers salute!

The 9/11 attacks had a profound impact on the United States, leading to the “Global War on Terror” and military involvement in Afghanistan and Iraq. The decision to prioritize a ceremony in Alaska over the traditional memorial sites has left many questioning President Biden’s commitment to honoring the memory of those who lost their lives on that fateful day.
