@thetimes: Esther Santer got married in a sweeping country club in New York surrounded by lush greenery with a dazzling blue outdoor pool. The venue, Crest Hollow, can host up to five weddings a day across its grounds in peak season. But when Santer and her husband tied the knot there in September 2017, it was unusually quiet. That is because their wedding took place on 9/11, the anniversary of the deadliest terror attack on American soil. Almost a decade later, the couple prefer not to celebrate their anniversary on the day they married, nor do they post about it on social media. “I wouldn’t say we pretend we have a different day but we don’t publicise it,” she told The Times. “We wish each other a happy anniversary on September 11, but when we go out to celebrate, it’s either on the 10th or 12th.” 🔗 Tap the link to read more #usnews #america #weddings #newyorkcity #anniversary

could you imagine if every other country couldn't shut up about their tragedies for years, and years, and years?

That’s mad weird. No one wants to get married on that day as a New Yorker.

Sounds like it was one of the most available dates and possibly a bit cheaper from most people not wanting it

I guess! The strategic partnership between Israel and the United States was part of the reason al-Qaeda attacked aside from America’s unlawful interference in middle eastern politics. How al-Qaeda responded was awful. Let’s not forget the “why”.

Why are the people who are obsessed with “terrorism” also the most likely to support U.S. and Israeli terrorism in the Middle East?
