I welcome these hearings because of the opportunity that they provide to the American people to better understand why the tragedy of 9/11 happened and what we must do to prevent a reoccurrence. I also welcome the hearings because it is finally a forum where I can apologize to the loved ones of the victims of 9/11. To them who are here in the room, to those who are watching on television, your government failed you. Those entrusted with protecting you failed you. And I failed you.
Good evening. I'm Will MacAvoy. This is “News Night," and that was a clip of Richard Clarke, a former counterterrorism chief to President George W. Bush, testifying before Congress in March 24, 2004.
我支持這一系列聽證會的原因是:國人能通過聽證會更透徹地了解911悲劇為何會發(fā)生,并認識到如何才能避免悲劇重演。我支持聽證會,還因為我想借此機會作出道歉向911遇難者的家屬朋友道歉向在場的各位道歉,向電視機前的觀眾道歉。政府辜負了你們,受托保護你們的機構與人員辜負了你們,我辜負了你們。
晚上,我是威爾?麥卡沃伊。這里是《晚間新聞》。您剛才看到的是在喬治?布什總統(tǒng)任期內(nèi)的前反恐事務主管理查德?克拉克的發(fā)言片段,2004年3月24日在國會的一段聲明。
