US: Flight 93 Memorial - Islamist Crescent Scrapped
Remember this abomination of bad taste? The image at left is the design which some moron suggested as a fitting memorial to the victims of Flight 93, and which a committee of morons approved.
Flight 93 was hijacked on 9/11 and would have been a flying bomb aimed at a target with more people for Muslim extremists to maim and kill, but for the actions of passengers. Some bravely managed to overpower the Muslim maniac at the controls, but could not stop the aircraft from crashing into swampy land near Shanksville, 65 miles southeast of Pittsburgh.
The memorial was called as a "Crescent of Embrace" by the morons on the design team, and instantly created outrage as the crescent seemed to be a symbol commemorating the Muslim maniacs who plotted 9/11 rather than their innocent victims. Outrage at this tasteless travesty of taste has been pouring out since September, originally led by Tom Tancredo, the Colorado Republican, but only now, almost three months later, have the morons at Paul Murdoch Architects accepted that they are "sensitive" to public concerns, even though they still dismiss complaints as an "unfortunate diversion".
Their "revolutionary" innovation, announced in the Flight 93 National Memorial newsletter, is to extend the crescent to create a circle, or bowl, states silive.com.
The original tasteless philistines who approved the "Crescent embrace" were "a jury of 15 made up of design professionals and family and community members." The design was selected from a pool which had originally included 1,011 submissions.
The circle of red maples will, hopefully, eventually create a commemorative garden where relatives and those with a reflective mind can sit or walk along pathways.
