Several stories during the past couple of days and some comments on several forum boards from average Joe Clueless American, just shot me into a realization that our country is becoming simply delusional or at worst, collectively insane.
There’s a saying that one should “never underestimate the stupidity of people in large groups’. With that in mind, it can also be said that ignorant multicultural idiocy is bliss – dangerous bliss, the kind of bliss that hangs a sign on our collective backs that reads “Kick Me”.
Frighteningly, our Jihadist enemies both within and abroad understand that sign and are taking full advantage of our collective multicultural insanity to eventually kick us hard enough that we cannot get back up.
On September 9, 2007, a pre-9/11 celebration of sorts will be taking place in New York City, as Islamists from across the Tri-State area will congregate there for the 22nd Annual Muslim Day Parade. While that might sound as innocent to some as say, The Scottish Day parade – this event has nothing to do with American values and traditions and has more in common with the ideology of the 9/11 hijackers. This parade has featured Grand Marshals such as Siraj Wahhaj, a potential co-conspirator to the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center; Muzzamil Siddiqi, whose organization was recently cited as being a funding arm for the militant Islamic group Hamas.
The fact they are marching so close to Ground Zero, and feature such questionable people who are known to hate the United States and have made thinly veiled threats against this country, would seem to be a slap in the face of Americans who lost 3,000 countrymen to Jihadists that appear to have the same ideals as these groups that are marching on September 9.
I think the idea of a “Muslim Day Parade” in this nation when Militant Islam is in a declared state of war with us, is as absurd and stupid as if America held “Japanese Day Parades” at Pearl Harbor during WWII.
But wait, the insanity doesn’t stop there!
The chosen design for the United Flight 93 Memorial in Pennsylvania is a RED CRESCENT. Yes, a RED CRESCENT of Islam. The crescent-shaped “memorial to heroes” is a grove of red maple trees that orient a person facing the entrance directly towards Mecca.
The entire design contains typical features of an Islamic Mosque, realized on the same scale as the half-mile wide central crescent. The minaret-like Tower of Voices part of the memorial turns out to be a gigantic Islamic prayer-time sundial. There are 44 memorial glass blocks emplaced along the flight path, one for every person on the flight – INCLUDING THE JIHADIST HIJACKER TERRORISTS!
The architects deny these charges of course, stating that the design, originally called “Crescent of Embrace”, but revised to “Bowl of Embrace” is a proper homage to the doomed 9-11 flight. In my estimation upon looking at the design, it would be the equivalent of creating a Holocaust Memorial in Auschwitz with hedges shaped into a swastika.
The design is so offensive, Tom Burnett Sr., whose son died trying to help retake the plane from the Jihadists, wants his son’s name withheld from the memorial.
The directors of the memorial apparently do not understand perception is reality, and have called the observations of the design as Islamic as “faulty assumptions”.
Offensive Islamic Design Worries Father
See for yourself from the Official Flight 93 Memorial Sight
In America today, such insanity is embraced, apologized for, or ignored.
We are not only handing rope to the Jihadists to hang us, we are tying the knots in the noose and giving them the knives to saw the heads off our children.
This collective insanity will kill us all.
You have a great site, with good, informative commentary; thanks for linking it up at MLF.
Regarding the memorial, while I do find it suspicious that they chose the design they did, in the interest of accuracy, the memorial site you linked to states that there are 40 groves (not 44) representing the passengers and crew. Presumably, the four hijackers are excluded. It could be that it was changed from 44 to 40 due to pressure from the families.
From what I can glean, the original design featured 44 glass blocks that marked the flight path of United 93 from the “Entry Portal” to the “Sacred Ground”. The grove of 40 Maple trees is what makes up the ‘curve of embrace’ (As an artist it’s embarrasing how stupid these titles are that artists come up for memorials). I don’t think the passengers were embracing the idea of death there. Only the Jihadists were.
Plus I don’t much like the idea of using the term ‘embrace’ inside a red crescent. It’s subtly insidious in my estimation.
There is no mention of how many glass blocks commemorate the flight path in the ‘new’ design. All the site now reveals is that “The memorial design expresses this confluence by marking the Flight Path as it breaks the circular continuity of the Bowl edge at the Entry Portal and the Sacred Ground, where the crash occurred.”
Hopefully the families will rectify that problem – but I gotta tell you – even looking at the re-design, it seems to look like an Islamic Crescent with the ‘sacred ground’ located at the very opening of where the star would be in the Muslim symbol.
The prayer tower that looks like a minaret and the aspect of a giant muslim sundial is too disconcerting in my book to be considered for a memorial.
They need to scrap this and let the families of the heroes of that flight come up with an idea that pays proper honor to their lost loved ones.
Agreed. I don’t much care for the flowery, biblical-style phrases either; it sounds too much like that nutcase in Iran. Maybe if the families stand up and say loudly-as one-that it would be better to have NO memorial than this one, that might serve. Whose district is that site in, anyway? Is it public property? Too many question marks…
Rally Against Islamofascism: Remembering Bloody Tuesday
Six years have passed since the worst terrorist attack on America. It seems that most Americans do not remember what happened on September 11, 2001. We are back to business as usual. While our military is fighting the War on Terror, American consumers are financing terrorism by buying Middle Eastern oil. While a Crucifix submerged in urine is considered to be a free artistic expression and received a government grant, flushing a Koran down the toilet is prosecuted as a hate crime. While moderate Muslim groups like American Islamic Forum for Democracy and Muslims Against Sharia are virtually unheard of, terrorist fronts like CAIR and MPAC receive multi-million dollar payments from Saudi Arabia and enjoy full recognition by our government officials.
