ONLY ONE MENTION OF 9/11?

The State of the Union speech last night contained just one reference to 9/11.

From http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/01/20070123-2.html

For America, this is a nightmare scenario. For the enemy, this is the objective. Chaos is the greatest ally -- their greatest ally in this struggle. And out of chaos in Iraq would emerge an emboldened enemy with new safe havens, new recruits, new resources, and an even greater determination to harm America. To allow this to happen would be to ignore the lessons of September the 11th and invite tragedy. Ladies and gentlemen, nothing is more important at this moment in our history than for America to succeed in the Middle East, to succeed in Iraq and to spare the American people from this danger.


Not bad. It's good to see the milking of 9/11 has nearly ceased.

But what are these lessons Bush refers to?
"...the lessons of September the 11th"?

It would have been useful to discuss those.

Never let Cheney run terrorist drills.
Never use 9/11 and similar events as a pretext for multiple, simultaneous wars without a thorough impartial, international investigation into the events.
