I guess nobody will forget the historical September 11, 2001 attacks or more commonly known as the 911 where we witnessed the two towers of the World Trade Center being attacked by hijacked planes.

912 Project Celebrates First Birthday
I guess nobody will forget the historical September 11, 2001 attacks or more commonly known as the 911 where we witnessed the two towers of the World Trade Center being attacked by hijacked planes.
On March 13, 2009, a political manifesto was founded named the 9/12 project or the 912 project by talk show personality Glenn Beck to bring all Americans united and to protect their values as the greatest nation of all nations.
The 912 project is called as such since it contains “9 principles and 12 values” which Beck believed to be the principles and values of the founders of America. Among the 9 principles mentioned focus on God, America, hard work, family, US government, etc. while among the 12 values center on responsibility, courage, gratitude, etc.It was 52 weeks ago that Glenn stood in front of the Fox News cameras to announce the 9/12 Project. This site launched and was immediately crushed by an avalanche of interest from you. Over 50,000 hits per second fried a bank of servers for most of the weekend. Each time we managed to migrate the data and relaunch, you did it again. THANK YOU FOR THE SLEEPLESS WEEKEND.
We understood what this outpouring of interest meant – There was a glaring need for America to return to basic Principles and Values. And we did not require you to agree with everything on the list. Glenn stated that if you only supported 7 of the 9 Principles (and you get to pick which 7), then you stood with us. No matter what your party affiliation – if you are a proud 9/12er, you are one of us.
We offered reading lists – you made those books best-sellers. We suggested news stories to help keep you abreast of the vital issues – you made those issues bigger and your voices have created a dialogue with Washington DC that has not been this active since the 1960s. Well Done!
The days, weeks, months and years ahead will all be better if we realize that Principles and Values matter. And if we stick to these Principles and Values and work to restore honor in ourselves and demand the same from our elected officials, then no problem is too great and America has a bright future ahead.
Many of you have heard me say that this project, this mission is really about the truth. My personal mantra is “TRUTH HAS NO AGENDA.” The truth does not need to be defended. It is it’s own defense.
