Flight 93 Memorial Opposition Gets Traction
onebigdog.net — Fox has a lot more information at their disposal. They had a television crew at the Somerset County Courthouse yesterday where Colonel Harry Beam laid out a precise and devastating expos é of Islamic and terrorist memorializing design features, and they were sent extensive fact checking materials.

- Johneeeee, on 05/05/2008, -3/+44Appalling. This is what I loath about the Political Left. They have to project their partsian bigotry and ignorance into everything! They have the emotional IQ of very young children when it comes to anything political. God forbid anything or anyone be allowed anything that does validate their ignorant overly emotional world views.

Frankly, 911 blame, IMHO, can be placed directly at the feet of liberalism.
Who stopped oil companies from drilling in America?
Who stopped any new cracking plants in America?
Who caused the quest for oil abroad?
Because of all these minor liberal knife cuts..... over time we have indirectly funded a genocidal nutcases hell bent on death, destruction and chaos.
What liberal president devastated our military and wrecked our intelligence gathering ability?
Radical Islam believes all Americans are exactly like the fruit loops twisted sort frequently exported by Hollywood... another liberal bastion. Even our enemies don't like liberals!
To top it off, liberalism, the MSM and many liberal politicians are/have aiding and abetting the very enemy who is plotting the demise of all of us.
Maybe we should go with all the Islamic features of the memorial but simple change the name of the memorial to
Liberalism Gone Wild! ?
Or Perhaps
The Do-Me Memorial
We could sell DVD's on TV of the place after 10 PM and are children are asleep.- keymanjim2, on 05/05/2008, -2/+15Hammer some copper nails into the trees and pour salt on the ground. Then they can rename it the "The Dead Crescent Memorial to islam and liberalism."
- hadees, on 05/05/2008, -6/+8We would never have enough oil if we only got it at home even if we drilled everywhere and we don't get that much oil from the middle east, the middle east just affects the price of oil we do get.
Don't blame the victims, meaning all of us including liberals, for the actions of Islamic extremists. - hstege, on 05/06/2008, -3/+2which republican president left troops stationed in saudi arabia following the persian gulf war?
which democratic president continued to leave them there?
osama bin laden wasn't pissed at america for buying oil...
anyway, i don't think you can lay the blame completely on one side of the aisle or the other for most issues, including for issues relating to 9/11. obviously the guys hijacking the planes and funding / planning the operation are to blame, but you can look back and see tertiary "minor knife cuts" that may have influenced their actions from both liberal and conservative actors. and if you can't recognize that, then it's time to be a bit more objective in making observations...

It's sickening that it's been years since they came up with this design and these asshats still want to go it. - keymanjim2, on 05/05/2008, -3/+33Why don't they just build a mosque there instead?
Tom Burnett said if they go through with this he doesn't want his sons name on it. The rest of the families should do the same. - Christinewjc, on 05/05/2008, -4/+28How utterly disgraceful!! What is wrong with that one guy on the video who does not care that the design of the memorial would be shaped like an Islamic crescent?
This is insane. We are supposed to honor, memorialize and remember the VICTIMS of terrorism - not the false religion of the terrorists who did this despicable act.
Good for Mr. Burnett for speaking out against what would surely be a travesty if the current design is not changed! - Qong, on 05/05/2008, -1/+15Whether it was an intentional part of the design is irrelevant.
The eerie resemblance should be more than enough to change it, let alone that fact that, at the very least, one of the victims close family members wants his son's name left out if the current design does indeed go through. That is a sad thing to have his son's name removed, no matter if you are liberal, conservative, or anything else. That just isn't right. - DerangedPenguin, on 05/05/2008, -1/+12Petition signed, just what we need a memorial to flight 93 that resembles a mosque. If it weren't for the possibility that there might have been victims of Jewish descent on board flight 93 , I would love to see the ground soaked in pigs blood just to ward off the evil Muslim spirits.
- Rotzooi, on 05/06/2008, -3/+1Hillary Clinton is opposed to this version of the memorial, but Barack Hussein Obama likes mosques. The more the better.

The crescent, the main design feature, is in and of itself completely inappropriate. The glass blocks numeric symbolism, the orientation, the prayer time sundial, all might be coincidental individually. But with each additional coincidence, the probability that all these aspects of the design are coincidental diminishes. There are just too many coincidences here to be accidental.
Considering the importance of building a suitable tribute to the memory of those who died as victims of the terrorists, or actually doing battle with them in the air, the idea that this design should go forward is just incomprehensible. Surely a design can be found that does not, even arguably, contain tributes to the terrorist murderers. - caoilfhionn, on 05/07/2008, -1/+5The design is for the biggest mosque in North America by a factor of 100. One of the Islamic Scholars they're using to make excuses for the design is R. Kevin Jaques, from the University of Indiana, who wrote a paper saying our response to 9/11 should be - submit to sharia law. He says the reason we shouldn't be concerned is that the mihrab -which is what the giant crescent is -when you face into it, you are facing mecca - nobody has seen a mihrab this big before. A mihrab is the central feature of every mosque!
- USNavyBlue, on 05/13/2008, -0/+1Signed and forwarded the petition to everyone I know! Gee, I can't imagine why the MSM has not picked up on the story? /sarcasm.............Traitors that they are.
