Rising: Rebuilding Ground Zero September 4, 2011 8:09 pm FrankC

Anybody watching this on the Science Channel?

I like it!

“BRING IT” you stupid swine, kiss our national ass. We built it back bigger and better and we used huge quantities of the money and power you hate us for. Goddamn you, you bastards, goddamn you very much. The innocent people you killed without a care are now immortalized forever at the site.

What must those cretin pigs think when they watch this media production and see what we have built?

They probably think we are arrogant to rebuild what they destroyed as if they hardly matter. They probably wonder how they can hope to defeat an enemy that can brush off their greatest accomplishment and turn it into a national icon celebrating strength and courage. They probably wonder what happened to the weaklings that favored humility and a small memorial to those who died for our hubris.

Humans have an unbelievable ability to rationalize their causes in the face inevitable failure. Our enemies should pray to see the truth lest they be destroyed. We tend to smite a hundredfold when offended.
