I guess they have a great way of hiding evidence,from the twin towers being imploded. WAKE UP AMERICA building DON’T just fall straight down into there foot print. And if you do believe it I have some great swamp land in the everglades to sell you

Well, well, a 40,000 ton ship that has maybe 8 tons of steel from the twins, honoring 50 or so dead cops. I had 2 great uncles that went down with the Arizona and my father was killed in Veitnam a few moths after I was born. took the feds YEARS! to even consider erecting any kind of memorial, just goes to show be a cop and even a bad one and your a hero and first inline for awards, otherwise forget it. Will this vessel stop world terrisom? NO, wasn’t designed for such, it’s just a support vessel, not a sub or carrier, the real fighters of any modern naval engagment.

God bless America? Haven’t we created enough destruction in the last 8 years? To make a WAR ship out of the WTC seems like a horribly bad message.
