January 6 was just a continuation of terrorists attacking the United States, trying to finish the job that was begun on September 11, this time an inside job by DOMESTIC terrorists.
September 11 was a three-pronged attack against American life:
Our Economy: Two aircraft struck the World Trade Center in an attack a potent symbol of our economy, but the Twin Towers represented only a tiny fraction of our whole economy.
Our Military: The third plane hit the Pentagon — an attack on our military, but it is heavily, heavily fortified and, in any case, like our economy, is widely dispersed at bases around the nation and the world.
Our Federal Government: The Fourth Plane — the one that heroic passengers brought down at Shanksville, Pennsylvania — was aimed by conservative religious terrorists at the United States Capitol building. Both houses of congress were in session that fall Tuesday.
The U.S. Capitol, with both houses of congress in session, was a heavily-concentrated center of government, with the Supreme Court building less than 300 feet away and the White House just a couple of miles down Pennsylvania Avenue. As January 6 demonstrated, the Capitol building, open to the public and NOT heavily fortified, was a very vulnerable target.
If the conservative religious terrorists had succeeded on 9/11 in crashing a plane into the Capitol, with both houses in session, it would have been a major blow to the Federal Government of the United States.
On January 6, 2021, conservative religious terrorists tried to finish the job.
