Restoration of the twin towers should not be an option. Return to the country that which was taken.

I whole heartily agree re-build the towers bigger and better. And let the world know that America is still the greatest country in the world and won't be bullied by anybody!

Time for America to stand up and be the world leader instead of cowering and pandering to all the special interest groups of the world!!!!! If we offend you, TO BAD!!! It's our right in this country. Rebuild them, bigger and better. If we don't stand up soon we we will never be able to stand up again.

We are in the best country on Earth. We, the people, want the towers back. We hire public servants, aka the politicians, to do our bidding. Let's not let them get in the way of doing our bidding.

Rebuild them exactly as they were. The NY skyline was a symbol of power and achievement recognized world wide. Now, it looks like an extension of New Jersey.

Really exciting to know that getting our tours back is still possible. Let it be known, putting it back in place will send the strongest message to the world, and to the terrorists.

Rebuild the Towers...Just as they were girder for girder. That is a true monument to those that lost their lives on that terrible day. A defining statement that says "We will not go quietly into the night, we will not vanish without a fight!" Show the world we are not afraid

When I first saw the Twin Towers from the Empire State building I was struck by the beauty and sheer size of them. When the sun hit them just right they glimmered like fine silver. New Yorkers told me that they were a great landmark and they were very proud of them. To this day when I think of New York I think of those towers. They were in LOADS of movies from when I was a kid, granted I'm not very old. They came to be as American as apple pie to me and many in my generation.I want them back!

The attacks made Americans stand a little taller and stronger. Put the towers back taller and stronger as well, not only as a memorial for those who were lost, but a symbol of our character and resolve aa Americans!

As the great General George Patton once said "Americans love a winner and will not tolerate a looser". We loose if we don't rebuild. We MUST rebuild as these buildings are a symbol of this country's success and will to succeed. These buildings represent the awesome nature of this country, not just New York. Please bring back America's Twin Towers.

The Twin Towers should be rebuilt exactly as they were...or perhaps even one story taller than before, as a subtle gesture of defiance. New structures of a different style would only be a constant reminder of that terrible day.

I think it's wrong that this process has taken so damned long. I'm sick of the politicalization.

Rebuild the towers and find out who was really responsible for their destruction and the other events of 9/11 We need an independent investigation! The 9/11 commission report is a bunch of lies.

The second biggest tragedy in NYC is that we aren’t rebuilding the WTC exactly as it was. It's almost 6 years later and nothing has been built. Lets start building, but do it right and put back the Twin Towers.

I agree as many Americans do, rebuild what we lost on 9/11. My future children deserve it. I would love to take them to NYC so they can see with their own eyes what America means. It would show a powerful message about growing through pain only makes us stronger. I am embarrassed by the slow growth of the construction process almost 5 years after 9/11. America could have rebuilt 3 sets of Freedom Towers by now. Please bring back the original Twin Towers! Matt from Kansas City.

we, as americans, must realize that the rest of the world is watching us. how we react to this situation, of to rebuild or not, is key to their perception of the strength of america. our, can do spirit, is in danger of being replaced with internal squabbling, and jeolous rivalry.did the evil ones do more than destroy some buildings?

Rebuild the Twin Towers as they were. They are the symbols of capitalism and the financial strength of this country. Do not mangle the site. Return the towers as they were and defy those that have tried to destroy it. The should be one story taller to symbolize an "in your face" defiance. Bigger, stronger and taller.

whatever structure goes there, in that hallowed place, will send a statement.................why not make it the correct statement? why not make the new structure even bigger and better than the towers were? why not make it look like the twin towers, just 5% bigger? this awful project that's being discussed is wrong, my friends, just wrong. it's a sell out to the concept of being PC. to be PC is the path to destruction, look at what has happened in Paris, in London, in Madrid, now Glascow

If Americans are still flying. If AA and United are still in business. If the people still has a say in how we operate in this country. Then we should build the the towers again. Was there any argument about what to do in New Orleans after the "twin storms"? No! The only fitting monument to those who died, and those who defend our way of life is to build them as a tribute to our resolve, and their sacrifice.

We need to put Ground Zero back the way it should be. Let's not let terrorists architect America! Bring back the Twin Towers!

Seems we have finally put our souls up to the highest bidder. I bet T.R. is turning in his grave when he were to see our lack of spine to face the harsh reality of these Facists. Put it back in their face that we are serious about our civilization! That shouldn't be a argument, but it is. We shouldn't have discussed building a new tower. It seems we don't want to offend the enemy. Put a fork in U.S., we're done! No Spine, no Spine at all.

The day they cut the ribbon on the new twin towers will a day not unlike the moon landing - an entire country unified in overwhelming pride and it's sprit made whole again

Nothing in my mind looked better than seeing lower Manhattan flanked by these two grand buildings standing guard over the city. Bring them back!

I've said this from the start...
A passive memorial will only embolden the Enemy,
and in the long run, help them recruit more fanatics.
The time for talking has long passed, and these Fanatics have to be dealt with, not just in the field of battle, but her at Ground Zero, where they made a clear and decisive move against the whole Western Civilization.

Why let the enemy decide our fate? Rebuilding shows them that we will not be cowed by their anger, and we are still strong, no matter what they throw at us. Lets show our children that we stood up just when the world thought we would crumble, and that we refused to falter, even when everyone else thought we would break. Rebuild the towers!

Our enemies know they are winning the war on terror, every day that hole stays in the ground in New York. What would our forefathers have done? What would the WWII generation have done? They would put the towers back exactly the way they were!!

Absolutely...Rebuild them so they look the same, only this time higher and bigger than before. No wussy politically correct memorial monuments that only make us look weak, show them that when you attack America it only makes us stronger.

What's not to love about the Twin Towers? Bring 'em back! I can't remember how many movies I've watched with them in the background, and then my mind says, "Oh yeah, they're not there any more." Let's make those Islamic warmongers cry as much as they all rejoiced when they came down. Let's make everyone who loves them, like me, shed a wistful tear of gratitude for the sacrifices made there, but only by seeing them restored to their original glory.

Build 'em just as they were, but stronger and throw in one extra "Freedom" floor as a "spit in their eye"!

Rebuild Now!! When I watch movies made in New York after 9/11, it is like a big hole in the skyline and I get angry all over again. People rise up like we all did with Senate's skewed amnesty bill and get this thing rebuilt.
