Stop the Memorial Blogburst: Support Tom Tancredo’s call to scrap the crescent memorial
Support Tom Tancredo’s call to scrap the crescent memorial
The Park Service has a history of keeping the Secretary of the Interior in the dark about the decisions it makes in his name. It is likely that Secretary Dirk Kempthorne has never been told about the many warnings of Islamic symbolism in the planned Flight 93 Memorial. Please help bring Dirk into the loop by pasting the following letter (or one of your own) into an email for him. Text below the dotted line:
—————————————————
Dear Secretary Kempthorne:
Please heed Congressman Tom Tancredo’s call to completely scrap the present design for the Flight 93 Memorial. The original Crescent of Embrace design would have planted a bare naked crescent and star flag on the crash site:
The memorial plaza that sits roughly in the position of the star on an Islamic flag marks the crash site. (Click pics for larger images.)
All the redesign did was add some trees to the west of the original crescent:
Aside from the re-coloring of the site-plan image, the only actual change in the design is the additional arc of trees to the rear of a person facing into the original crescent.
The Park Service promised Congressman Tancredo in 2005 that Islamic iconography would be removed from the memorial. Instead, this iconography has only been very slightly disguised. Every particle of the original Crescent of Embrace design remains completely intact in the redesign.
The giant crescent points to Mecca
In September 2005, a half dozen different bloggers verified that a person facing directly into the original Crescent of Embrace would be facing almost exactly at Mecca. That makes the crescent a mihrab, the central feature around which every mosque is built.
Face into the crescent to face Mecca:
Left: mihrab from the Great Mosque in Cordoba Spain. Right: Crescent of Embrace also faces Mecca. The green circle is from the Mecca-direction calculator at Islam.com. When it is placed over the original Crescent of Embrace site plan, the Mecca-direction line (the “qibla”) almost exactly bisects the crescent.
You can plant as many trees around a mosque as you want and it will still be a mosque. But this isn’t just the world’s largest mosque. The planned memorial is also full of terrorist memorializing features.
Please hear my voice along with those of Congressman Tancredo and Tom Burnett Sr., who is refusing to allow Tom Jr.’s name to be used in the crescent design. The memorial to Flight 93 should not be a terrorist memorial mosque.
Sincerely
(Your name)

Excellent posting. I would recommend that everyone follow through - and send the link [ http://caosblog.com/6488 ] to all of your friends so they too can help stop this travesty.
one suggestion: If you have a little “creativity” in your soul, you may want to modify the text slightly; Kempthorne and his staff will get the same message and your e-mail may have more of an impact.
just a thought…

Stop the Flight 93 Memorial!
Just signed up to join the Stop the Flight 93 Memorial blogburst. I would encourage you to do the same. Because, you see, this is not a tribute to the innocent victims of this cowardly attack. It is a memorial to the Islamofascists who perpetrated it. …

I notice my trackback didn’t come through for some reason, I tried Kalsey and Wizbang, and it still would not go through. I’ll try again later.
