Detectives discovered
a rusted piece of landing gear
wedged between
an apartment building
and a mosque
and believed to be a remnant
of one of the hijacked planes
from
September 11 2001.
Back then this country
had lots of questions
like who did this
and why
all of which
needed to be asked but
the first question to answer
was and is "Who do we
want to be?"
