"Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them..."

Paul Thompson's The Terror Timeline is the indispensable research tool for anyone interested in the events leading up to, during, and after the events of September 11th, 2001.
I'm introducing a weekly installment that will showcase an item found on the Timeline. Some of you might find this a pointless exercise. Others will find some if not all of the items fascinating. I will present these items--all newsclippings that can be cross-referenced in mainstream news in some capacity or another--in their raw form, meaning with little or no commentary--rarely will I break this rule.
