The article mentions that 41 Republicans joined Democrats in a vote, IN A REPUBLICAN-CONTROLLED HOUSE, to remove and destroy the monument.

Where is George Soros with his money; banners and paid protesters?

So, I guess reconciliation is off the table, then?

Moses Ezekial, Jewish VMI graduate and WWI Veteran designed this monument and is buried by it. This is a travesty proving what the Marxists are trying to do— to bury the HISTORY of the Reconciliation which took decades to complete... through the Spanish American War, WWI and WWII!! For God’s sake— what idiots on the ‘naming’ commission decided this? The same ones who “renamed” Fort Gordon to Fort “Eisenhower” (who never even visited the place or had any interaction with it. He did play a round of golf at Augusta National Golf Club— highly restricted club).

And as usual, the American people will just sit back and watch it removed! Where the hell are the patriots to go down there and protest in the hundreds to take a stand and make their voices known! This is how you show fear to both the DC swamp and the backstabbing RINOS! This is why they can do what they want because nobody stands up against this monstrosity of destroying our country’s history! And once again, Trump was right! What’s next the Statue of Liberty? All the monuments in DC? Perhaps the Lincoln Memorial? This is only the beginning and the saps like ourselves are letting it happen. We don’t have a spine people at all! The left wing, anti-America hate everything about our history are making HUGE inroads without one iota of outrage. Mark my words if they can do this at the most famous American cemetery, don’t think for one minute they’re not coming after the most beautiful historical monuments across the nation.

Governor Youngkin apparently has made arrangements for the monument to be placed at New Market Battlefield Memorial:

I heard yesterday that the memorial is actually a grave. There is body buried near or under it. The guy buried there was against slavery. Then I found this.

“If your elected official is concerned about Anti-semitism, perhaps they should be asked what they are doing about the US Army’s post-Hannukah plans to remove the most important work of arguably the world’s most important Jewish artist, Moses Ezekiel, which marks his grave at Arlington National Cemetery.”

I guess we must remove everything from Arlington because it’s on the grounds of a plantation owned by a confederate general.

So, if the reconciliation statue goes, does that mean we are not reconciled and can continue to fight on??

If they have to, move it but NEVER destroy our history!

Feels like a symbolic declaration that half of America is no longer reconciled and united with the other half of America, as was the case from 1865 on.

Have it your way... Yankees.
