Message from the Director: Honoring the Victims of 9/11
Statement to Employees by Director of the Central Intelligence Agency Mike
Hayden on Honoring the Victims of 9/11
September 10, 2008
Tomorrow, we mark the seventh
anniversary of one of our nation’s most difficult days. To see
America under attack, as it was then,
is something none of us can ever forget. In an office here at CIA Headquarters,
in a unit crucial to the fight against terrorism, a prominent sign still reads:
“Today’s date is September 12th, 2001.” That stark, simple reminder
speaks to the spirit of determination that defines our Agency. There can be no
finer way to honor the victims of 9/11 than to continue working with that full
dedication to protect our country and uphold its values of freedom and decency
in the world.
Mike
Hayden
