So, why did NBC edit out the commemoration of the London terrorist attacks of 7 July 1985 from the opening ceremonies?

NBC Omits Olympic Tribute To Victims Of London's 7/7 Islamic Terrorist Attacks

The 2012 Olympics opening ceremony included a beautiful tribute to the victims of London's 7/7 Islamic terrorist attacks. But if you were watching the opening ceremony in the United States, you probably didn't see it.

NBC chose to omit the tribute for an interview with Michael Phelps.

Words of Wisdom

"No one is more hated than he who speaks the truth."

Plato

"This country has shed more blood for the freedom of other people than all the other nations in the history of the world combined, and I'm tired of people feeling like they've got to apologize for America."

Sen. Fred Thompson (R-TN)

“In a time of universal deceit – telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”

George Orwell, the author of 1984

"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."

Dr. Martin Luther King

"Americans are so enamored of equality that they would rather be equal in slavery than unequal in freedom."

Alexis de Tocqueville

"A return to first principles in a republic is sometimes caused by the simple virtues of one man. His good example has such an influence that the good men strive to imitate him, and the wicked are ashamed to lead a life so contrary to his example."

Niccolo Machiavelli

“Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' But conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but because conscience tells one it is right.”

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
