Andrew Blake at the Washington
Times offers a piece on President Trump authorizing the construction on a memorial
for the War On Terrorism.
President Trump has signed a
bill authorizing the construction of a new memorial on the National Mall
commemorating U.S. service members who fought in the international war against
terrorism.
Mr. Trump announced his
signing of the Global War on Terrorism War Memorial Act through his official
Twitter account Friday evening, paving the way for the monument’s sponsors to
ramp-up work on erecting one of the nation’s capital’s newest memorials.
The Global War on Terrorism,
also known as the GWOT and the War on Terror, refers to the international
military campaign initiated by President George W. Bush in reaction to the
Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, including ongoing operations against targets
including the Taliban, Al Qaeda and Islamic State.
