"The idea that we could secure this construction site from a very dedicated suicide squad isn't a wise one."

And this differs from every other target terrorists could choose? Should we just shut down the entire country?

That was the whole idea of taking the war to THEM, remember?

Distinguishing this structure from most others is easy. If you can't do it, you must need mental help.

This structure is at the site of the original WTC, which was completely destroyed. (The Pentagon was dented but not completely destroyed).

It is a Stateside and NYC target that the Islamofascists have aleady hit, in some cases multiple times (the WTC was attacked as you know in 1993 and in 2001).

It is also a very ambitious structure - other structures around the country are nowhere near the 1776 feet of the planned new structure.

Other structures have nowhere near the notoriety and notability of the WTC site.

Other structures won't need the added security for the construction site, though basic security is always necessary.

I agree that we should take the war to THEM (all capitals as you insist, for some reason). But that's not to say that it won't be fought here also. 'Freedom Tower' is one big arrogant obnoxious target.

People will die.
