World Net Daily has a very informative article today about our petition to investigate the Flight 93 memorial. It includes excerpts from Tom Burnett’s letter to the American people; it includes information about the fraudulent Park Service investigation (where an Islamic scholar said not to worry about the half mile wide Mecca oriented crescent because nobody has ever seen a mihrab anywhere near this BIG before); and it reviews the four specific complaints highlighted in the petition (the giant crescent, the Mecca orientation, the Islamic sundial and the 44 blocks).
Those last four links are to graphics that Tom Burnett is going to have on poster-boards when he addresses a Republican convention in Wisconsin at the end of the month. World Net Daily is looking to add video content these days so Tom is going to try to get video of his speech that we can edit down to five minutes of highlights for WND.
The first place we will be delivering the petitions is to the Memorial Project’s public meeting on May 3rd in Somerset PA. It looks like we are going to have quite a few signatures, both from the electronic petition (zooming towards 2000 already), and from the paper petitions (now circulating on the ground in PA).
At least one state legislator from Pennsylvania has signed the petition, and a Congressman has expressed interest in entering the whole thing into the congressional record. That would be a second Congressman coming out publicly against the memorial. (Tom Tancredo asked the Park Service last fall to scrap the crescent design entirely.)
Will any of the big radio radio voices wake up to the evidence that al Qaeda accepted our open invitation to the ENTIRE WORLD to enter our design competition? All they have to do is look at the FACTS.
I got a letter asking for a donation for the memorial project today. I don’t know what mailing list I’m on, but I live in TX. I sent it back with ” no money from me until the Islamic Crescent design is rejected and a new design for the memorial picked.”
I’m sure some clerk at the office will throw it right in the trash, but maybe they’ll tell someone? Made me feel better.
No way…never ever ever will I give them one more dime. What a disgrace this is.
I’ve been to Shanksville and visited the temporary memorial. This “temp memorial” was built from the heart and souls of complete strangers who wanted to thank the people who gave their lives on flight 93. It’s a small sight in size but it’s enormous in emotion.
I don’t know if the memorial that’s being planned was designed with evil thoughts in mind. I don’t think any of us really know that answer. The bottom line is that is this planned memorial is innocent and a total misunderstanding then the park commission should have no problems changing the design that would make the masses happy.
I do hope they work the temporary memorial into what ever design they finally go with. I stood in front of a row of tin angels with one of the mothers of a man that was on flight 93 on the 5th anniversary of the crash and it was one of the most touching moments I ever experienced. This is the kind of feeling they need to keep in this memorial. Not of of turmoil.
Peace.
I’ll be passing the Flight 93 petition around.
I’ve been hanging out here at Flopping Aces, reading, and enjoying. I am simply amazed at the quantity and quality of precise information and the intellectual superiority of this group. I am really impressed. BTW, this is an outstanding looking blog. I’m not all that familiar with the “how to” but if I could, I’d copy this one. Great work.
