I had no idea this even existed until today. I'm not a pro-Russian cheerleader; but this softened my perspective a bit. I chalk it up to the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Didn’t know that either.
Russia is not our enemy.

Interesting, never heard of it before.
Not a cheap memorial.

You’re right. I don’t think the Russians at large feel we are enemies. But i’m an America-first kinda guy, and i bet the Russians feel the same way. “Can’t we all just get along?”

Very beautiful. But of course, Islam is a Religion Of Peace, and this might make the Muslims feel bad.

I remember reading about this, but didn’t realize it had been pretty much hidden since it was delivered.

Vaguely reminiscent of those silly fake scrotums that dooshbags affix to their pick up trucks.

I knew about it vaguely from something I read maybe here on FR or elsewhere on the internet but other than that nothing. The out of the way location doesn’t help of course but maybe this article will begin to make it better known.

Wow! On Snopes?! Yes, i bet that was a tough one.
To: qam1
Yeah, i caught that too. But since FR tradition is to not read the article, i didn’t want to look like a noob.

The memorial was dedicated on September 11, 2006 in a ceremony attended by former President Bill Clinton. Also in attendance were Michael Chertoff, the Bush Adminstration Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, and family members of World Trade Center victims. Recording artist Leann Rimes sang the National Anthem and Amazing Grace at the dedication ceremony.
So George Bush sent Skeletor to the ceremony, and the MSM pretty much ignored the whole thing.

Really? It’s a tear - representing sadness, I believe. Get your mind out of the gutter, dude.

But but but!!!
That can’t be a real 9/11 memorial. There’s no star and crescent built into it and there’s no super mosque nearby.

I see far too many of those silly truck scrotums on the road.
