Did anyone hear about this??? I didn't! Russian gift to the U.S.

I had never heard of this before receiving an e-mail. Wonder why the press didn't report it? > This 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.





Gift from the people of Russia......."Monument to the struggle against world terrorism, artist Zurab Tesereteii" ....it is an impressive memorial and statement against terrorism. 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. It was a cold and windy day but well worth the drive to see. It is down in the shipping yards across from "The Lady".

I live about 60-70 miles from this area & travel thru regularly & didn't know about this either!

I've never heard of this. :(  Must be that damn right-wing media.
