The 9/11 tribute at the RNC

He thinks it's exploitation of a painful subject for political gain; but there's something else going on here, too. While the video does not suggest that Iran was connected with the 9/11 attacks, it does seem to blend Iran and Al-Qaida into a seamless Islamist threat. What do you think?
