ARTICLE SNIPPET: "(CNSNews.com) - A memorial to people killed while trying to flee communism by escaping across the Berlin Wall will be destroyed unless the director can raise enough money by July 4 to buy the land from a bank.
The memorial, which stands at the former border crossing known as Checkpoint Charlie, opened last October. Since then, hundreds of thousands of people from around the world have visited the historic site."
