Flight 93 Memorial design travesty

Michelle Malkin has a great column about the Flight 93 memorial controversy, also go to her site for more.

Please get involved to stop this insult from going forward, here is my email to the Superintendent of the memorial.

To those responsible for this travesty,

How completely inappropriate, insensitive and pathetically PC to the families of the victims of Flight 93 to create a memorial that "embraces" the symbol of the religion of those that murdered, no, slaughtered them on September 11, 2001. It is beyond disgusting that this design was even allowed to be submitted for consideration, much less actually win this supposed competition. Even if this is an innocent coincidence, which is highly questionable after viewing the firm's philosophy on their website, care should have been taken to protect the memory of everyone on Flight 93 considering what has happened (but hopefully thwarted) at the WTC site instead of attempting to invoke some subconscious guilt ridden acceptance/understanding of the murderers and their religion. The very fact that the jury did not want to use the word "embrace" in order to avoid controversy is further proof of the intent of this memorial.

CAIR apparently has already started its defense of the memorial by claiming that Flight 93 was simply "a plane that crashed" in Pennsylvania 9/11/2001. If this memorial goes forward as it is now then that is all that it will be. The memory of Flight 93 needs to be preserved accurately to respect the people who lost their lives while fighting back against those that this memorial wishes to appease.

This needs to be stopped, now!
