When a memorial to the victims of an Islamic terrorist attack is being built to specifications that will make it the world's largest mosque, we have a serious problem.
The person who has stayed on top of all of this is Alec Rawls, author of Crescent of Betrayal - Dishonoring the Heroes of Flight 93. He has given up permission to reprint it here. For more information, visit his website.
Here is that email:
Here are some details on the trip that Mr. Burnett and I (and hopefully a lot of others) will be making to Somerset on Saturday 2nd:
At about 1PM (when the Memorial Project meeting lets out) Mr. Burnett and I will host a press conference and a rally outside the Somerset County Courthouse (where the meeting will be held).
Saturday evening will find some buffet type place for dinner that can be flexible in accommodating our numbers. Sunday morning we will visit the crash site. (I am making arrangements with the Park Service now, in case we get a large turn out.)
The only reason to try to make it to the meeting itself (10AM-1PM) is if you want to sign up to speak at the public comment period at the end. Otherwise the meetings are pretty dreary.
For those of you who are new to this issue, the first thing everyone needs to know is that the giant crescent points to Mecca, and that it remains completely intact in the “broken circle” redesign. The unbroken part of the circle (the crescent) is unchanged. It is still a giant Islamic shaped crescent, still pointing to Mecca...

WTF is going on in this country??????
Pennsylvania Memorial, Gettysburg, PA
If yes, a lawsuit could be considered similar to those used by the ACLU to stop any public displays of crosses.
The world is gone mad... We are doomed if Obamasama is El COMADANTE. More and more of this Shite will happen..Its a mad mad world.
I am sick of the whole “memorial industry” that springs up in all these sites. Seems like the only folks who benefit are the lawyers. Ugh.
Put a nondescript obelisk on the site with a plaque. And let’s get on with the busienss of being American.
If you google "crescent of embrace," you'll turn up some of the debate from back in 2005. Here's the Cox & Forkum take on it.
I hope people go ballistic if this thing is built. I can only imagine the budget they'll need to repair "vandalism."
But there were four muslims that died on Flight 93 after the Christians tried to massacre them!
“...Put a nondescript obelisk on the site with a plaque...”
How about a huge patriotic red, whaite, & blue star in that field. Make it big enough to be seen from at least 40,000 feet. At that rate, make it big enough to be seen from the International Space Station. People NEED to remember why we are in this fight. Far too many have forgotten, or intentionaly choose not to remember what happened on September 11, 2001. And that is VERY sad.
Absolutely disgusting that a memorial TO THE HIJACKERS!!!! would be built in the USA.
The Suicidal Uncle Sam is spot on.
They work to make the Muslims seem like the victims and cast the United States as the bad guys. They are professional guilt mongers and they are absolutely disgusting.
Amen. Now THAT’s a memorial.
