The world was robbed of the 21st-century Twin Towers most of us always wanted.
Click above for more comments that rebuke the cynicism that tried to replace the Twin Towers and failed.
Please Note: This petition is meant to provide a forum for this subject alone. It is a petition, not a bulletin board. We will not sanitize controversial remarks if the comments are primarily in support of the petition’s purpose. But off-topic remarks are subject to removal on a case-by-case basis to keep the focus where it belongs. Thank you.
Important Mention: Those who read back over the comments will find that from time to time we have highlighted excerpts to help those who only have time to skim a page get a sense of what people are thinking and feeling. We rarely do that now and it was never a methodical effort, but just a window on public opinion regarding this monumentally important issue. The important thing to know is that no comment matters more than any other. Each one is valued and helps make the case that the public was sidelined on something that mattered so much.
TTA Note: Occasionally a current signature will disappear. When that happens it is because someone who has already signed the petition signs a second time and when the second signature is validated the two are automatically merged and appear in the original chronology. If someone leaves a second signature and comment, it automatically overwrites the earlier placement when the validation link is activated. If it isn’t activated, or it is made using a different email address, there will be duplicate signatures. When we recognize that someone has signed before, we will delete the earlier entry and, if it was verified, verify the new one, since the clear intention is to make the new comment visible. We may decide to manually include the earlier comment at the end of the current message.
Regarding anonymous signatures: Taking a stand using one’s full name is always preferred, but when a name is withheld, the signature and sentiments are still of value. In every case, we have an email address that corresponds with the entry and is kept private.
* Indicates that the signer has not yet activated the validation link, often due to spamblocking software. They are included out of respect for the sincerity of the comments.
Hello
The events of September when it happened on 11.9.2001
I was only 10 years and I'm from the Middle East, now I remember the scene very frightening
I was child, but there is something in my heart told me that this is something bad and dangerous
Now I am 18 years old and very sad because of what happened
It was a normal working day suddenly turned into a disaster
In the eighth anniversary heard in the news that there is still Ground Zero as it is not the project ends
Discussed in the Internet and knew everything about design
And I chose to rebuild the Twin Towers
It's the best building in the world and I think that this is also what made terrorists destroy it
But do not anyone will be able to destroy life in the heart of New York City
So I found it my duty to join with you and encourage you
I'm with the Twin Towers
But we will be to see the twins towers again rise in the skies of New York high and lofty say to every terrorist
I'm back again will not be able any person to collapse me
Yes for twin towers
World with you YES TWIN TOWERS
