Trump pledges to hit Taliban harder as he marks 18th anniversary of 9/11 at Pentagon


By COREY DICKSTEIN | STARS AND STRIPES Published: September 11, 2019

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump on Wednesday marked the 18th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, touting America’s military might directed against  the Taliban, which gave sanctuary to the masterminds of strikes against New York and Washington.

“The last four days, we have hit our enemy harder than they have ever been hit before. And that will continue,” Trump said during a remembrance ceremony at the Pentagon’s 9/11 memorial. “And if, for any reason, they come back to our country, we will go wherever they are, and use power — the likes of which the United States has never used before. And I’m not even talking about nuclear power. They will never have seen anything like what will happen to them. No enemy on Earth can match the overwhelming strength skill and might of the American armed forces.”
