Gotta read Victor Davis Hanson. George Wills' collections of colums are good, too.

The driving force behind the IFC is Tom Bernstein, the dynamic co-founder of the Chelsea Piers Sports and Entertainment Complex who made a fortune financing Hollywood movies. But his capital ventures appear to have funded his true calling, the pro bono work he has done his entire adult life--as an activist lawyer in the human rights movement. He has been a proud member of Human Rights First since it was founded--as the Lawyers Committee for Human Rights--27 years ago, and has served as its president for the last 12.

The public has a right to know that it was Mr. Bernstein's organization, joined by the American Civil Liberties Union, that filed a lawsuit three months ago against Donald Rumsfeld on behalf of detainees in Iraq and Afghanistan. It was Human Rights First that filed an amicus brief on behalf of alleged "dirty bomber" Jose Padilla, an American citizen who the Justice Department believes is an al Qaeda recruit. It was Human Rights First that has called for a 9/11-style commission to investigate the alleged torture of detainees, complete with budget authority, subpoena power and the ability to demand that witnesses testify under oath.

In fact, the IFC's list of those who are shaping or influencing the content and programming for their Ground Zero exhibit includes a Who's Who of the human rights, Guantanamo-obsessed world:

I haven't been following this as closely as I should but how in the world did these anti-American idiots ever get put in charge of the design of this memorial? Who selected the committee of designers?

lot of people die accidental death. they don't make these kind of claims to grab piece of public land.

This wasn't an accidental death...

This was a planned murder/act of war.

I suppose the 3000+ service members just accidently died Dec. 7th, 1941?

You are really heartless and deserved to be called Banned8

For grave act of indifference to follow human being it should be a permanent ban IMHO.

Look through Michelle Malkin's coverage for the answer to that question of how the leftists organizations became involved with their attempt to tarnish the WTC site. See links at the bottom of this link: http://michellemalkin.com/archives/003629.htm
