The picture above is from the “One Million Strong for new Twin Towers” Facebook page, which was conceived by a fiercely dedicated young man, Steven Eiselen, to energize and focus the latent disgust Americans feel with what is being done to the World Trade Center.
Early today he sent out a broadcast to all his subscribers to express his frustration that the same people who are outraged over the “Cordoba House” mosque aren’t outraged over the despicable way the Trade Center has been handled. We sent him the following commentary — slightly revised — which he distributed to all of those who had received the original message:
“You have been a devoted and visionary supporter of rebuilding the Twin Towers since you were in your early teens. In fact, the great majority of those who contact the Twin Towers Alliance with ideas and encouragement happen to be young men — because their idealism hasn’t been worn down.
“But you are doing the cause of rebuilding the Twin Towers a disservice when you equate the strength of the current opposition to the mosque with the lack of a public demand to rebuild the Twin Towers. It is a matter of apples and oranges.
