the problem with people forgetting about events is the media. the media selects what they want you to hear, or whatever will get them the most ratings/papers sold, etc. you didn't hear about Afghanistan after the Taliban fell, even though there are still thousands of troops in that hellhole. the same goes for Iraq...as soon as something new comes along, the troops there and the service they are doing will be forgotten. Americans are infamous for having short attention spans when it comes to this stuff. I too had an American flag on my old car, but it got pretty beat up and i had to take it off. my parents have 9-11-01 stickers on their cars, and so does my brother. we don't forget.
