The third-tallest building (previous to 9/11) of course in New York is lit up to honor the Muslim holiday...seems to me like something is wrong with this?

As noted on a prior thread, the building’s controlling owner is a big Hillary donor.

Why don’t they just go ahead and paint a big bullseye on it. Idiots.

if the goathumpers had hit the ESB INSTEAD of the WTC... maybe they wouldn't feel the need to bend over and appease them!!!

When Lenin said “give a capitalist a rope and he will hang himself” he was astutely referring to mankind’s craveness in the face of intimidation and danger. Appeasemennt may very well earn these folks an unfortunate rendevous with terrorist destiny.

I’m not getting it. I buy that they’re honoring islam... Ok, so they’re douchebags. But I don’t see why making it green does that? Could they have picked any color they wanted? I haven’t seen where green is associated with islam.

Come on, folks; what did you expect? It’s New York, after all. New York suffers the slaughter of 3,000 of its citizens and all it can do is wring its hands, get on its knees and bow to its murderers, and whine: Why, oh why?

Why not light up the World Trade Center instead?
Oh, right... Never mind...
