I collected this image from Google Earth.  I had to do some cut-and-pasting to get a high-quality picture, since it blurs the outer edges of the image a bit.  It's a little late for 9/11, but here it is anyway in case anyone forgot what we're fighting to prevent.

We should fly a huge American flag on top and an Israeli flag right under it just to piss 'em off!

How about a Phalanx anti-missile system on the roof top?  Perhaps a Patriot battery (or whatever the upgraded Patriot missile system is called) would be better.

+1,  But I think they should build the towers right back the way they were. Why not show the terrorists that we are a nation that is strong. Thanks Arvin

PAC-3 but I could think of much better uses of taxpayer money.  We have already thrown away BILLIONS of dollars in an effort to prevent hijackings which no American passengers would permit in this day and age.

The greatest monument/memorial we could ever build to honor those who died on 9/11/01 would be to rebuild the twin towers.

Only bigger.

Rebuild what was there.  Bigger and well um... bigger.  F*@k this memorial stuff and build 2 new towers and make them the tallest in the world.

I've got the same picture a day or two after the planes hit if you want to make the thread a bit more impactful. I can't host it, but will email it to someone who can. It's a large file with incredible detail, so make sure your inbox can handle it.

With the way things are going on the wtc project, it will be  very long time before anything in built there

I'm for putting up a building taller than the WTC but in the shape of a CROSS.

"As it looks today?"
Um, not to rain on anyone's parade, but where is the new 7 WTC that topped out LAST fall?

Nice catch, I knew something looked off....

It seems that many groups want it to be a memoria or monument and all that.  No, I say build it back just like it was, only taller.  "WTC, we're back, new and improved."

Hoplite's post from lightfighter (Hoplite didn't get banned, did he?)



HEaring these just makes me even more agitated that shitbags are trying to use the 911 memorial for their own agendas. Sign the petition to keep the 911 memorial for 911 only and not some other BS.
Take back the memorial
This article sums up the IFC's plans on the memorial and how the intend to disrespect those who were murdered that day.
