PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Relatives of those who died aboard United Airlines Flight 93 want the Bush administration to seize the land needed for a memorial where the plane crashed in Shanksville, Pa., in the 9/11 attacks.
Patrick White, vice president of the group Families of Flight 93, said Saturday the group sent a letter in December asking President George W. Bush to empower the Secretary of the Interior to take the land.
The group says ground must be broken early next year in time for a memorial to be build for the 10th anniversary of the crash in 2011.
Svonavec Inc. owns one of the last large chunks of land needed for the 2,200-acre memorial, including the area where the plane crashed Sept. 11, 2001.
What the hell is wrong with these people? Don't the owners of the land have anything to say about it?
ReplyDeleteI swear, "families" of 9/11 victims, murderers, rapists etc. can be so annoying.
