The memorial was
dedicated on September 11, 2006 in a ceremony attended by former
President Bill Clinton.  Also in attendance were Michael Chertoff,
the Bush Adminstration Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security,
and family members of World Trade Center victims. Recording artist Leann
Rimes sang the National Anthem and Amazing Grace at the dedication
ceremony.  
This It is the "TEAR DROP" made and
installed by the Russians to honor those who died in 9 11 and a
statement against terrorism. It is very impressive.. The tear drop is
lined up with the Statue of Liberty...
The walkway is made of stones.
Names of the persons killed on 9 11
are inscribed on the base.
The base like the Vietnam Memorial
wall.

Awesome. Why didn't the media cover this? Are they purposely trying to keep us in the dark?

Absolutely stupendous. I was overwhelmed. I am mystified as to why the American media overlooked this. I can only conclude that the media, for some strange reason, purposely chose to ignore it.
