9-11 memorial-not what it appears
This needs to be stopped dead in its tracks. The World Trade Center memorial, as presently planned by the International Freedom Center Organizers, has turned into a platform for the political left, including George Soros, in which the story of the 9-11 attacks will turn into something totally different.
To the IFC's organizers, it is not only history's triumphs that illuminate, but also its failures. The public will have come to see 9/11 but will be given a high-tech, multimedia tutorial about man's inhumanity to man, from Native American genocide to the lynchings and cross-burnings of the Jim Crow South, from the Third Reich's Final Solution to the Soviet gulags and beyond.
According to the New York Times, early renderings of the center's exhibit area created by its Norwegian architectural firm depicted a large mural of an Iraqi voter. That image was replaced by a photograph of Martin Luther King and Lyndon Johnson when the designs were made public.
How did this group get hold of the decision making authority in New York? Let's find a way to put an end to this kind of "blame the victim" or the victims' ancestors explanation of history. More here and here. Email NY Governor George Pataki Or NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg Or your own Congressman or Senator.
