As the country’s leaders remember the thousands of Americans who lost their lives to terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, activists and social media users remind the public of the years of devastation those attacks were then used to justify. Fittingly as an outgrowth of that discussion, the name of former President George Bush was trending on Sunday along with video of a veteran’s demand of an apology from this country’s former leader.
That video was of anti-war activist and Iraq War veteran Mike Prysner. He interrupted Bush during a speaking engagement last September.
"Mr. Bush, when are you going to apologize for the million Iraqis that are dead because you lied?” the activist asked.
