An honest statement for a change. The average American, from the President on down, simply has no concept that we have been abusing the Arab world for 100 years or so. disigny

"We don't know why, and we don't know what it means."

Why is this a bad thing? Many people are still confused, and I almost think it is a more appropriate way to set up a memorial. These are very different times, so why not install a memorial to match that?

Memorials do not have to be practical. I would hardly call any memorial installation practical, unless it doubles as a museum (ie Holocaust museums, etc).
