9/11 Museum Director Tried to Cut Firefighter Photo: Too 'Rah-Rah American'![]() According to Elizabeth Greenspan, author of the up coming book Battle for Ground Zero (St. Martin’s Press), Michael Shulan, creative director of the 9/11 Memorial Museum, thought about cutting the famed photo from Ground Zero of three firefighters raising the American flag amidst the rubble of the World Trade Center…because he thought it was too “rah-rah America.” Shulan said, “I really believe that the way America will look best, the way we can really do best, is to not be Americans so vigilantly and so vehemently.” |

He is a MARXIST Jew. They have contempt for patriotism. |

This guy is an idiot. He should be deported if he is so 'embarrased' to be too 'pro American'. At the least, he should be removed from his position as creative director of the museum. He is an embarrasment.

PPSM, if the truth were known, your not in Europe but using a VPN. So why not get a ticket and move to Europe if you don't like it here? |

First off, it's "you're" not "your," you illiterate cretin. Next, as I've explained numerous times (but will now do so again given your status as an illiterate cretin), my VPN is used to mimic US locations--not European ones. I obtained a VPN to get around DL's PrimeTime, which webbie keeps installing permanently in several countries in Europe. So I use the VPN so it looks like I'm posting from the US. Not the other way around. I would have no reason to mimic European VPNs, because this is where I'm banned. Finally, I have a blog with infinite proof that I live overseas. I know it will be hard for you to read, given your lack of literacy, but there are photos. And PS: Even if I were in the US, I've as much right to be there as anyone. Gay, brown, Muslim, Asian, Latino, Liberal, Atheist, etc. The US is supposed to be a mixing pot, and not some white heterosexual Christian only club. If you don't respect that, you're the one that needs to get the fuck out. Don't come to Europe, though. They would really hate you. |

According to whom? Is that in the Constitution? I say we designate Iran as a "mixing pot." It needs more Japanese, Chinese, Germans and Russians! |

What does the description "Jew " have anything to do with the article. Your comment says more about your ignorance and disrespect for human life. Of course quoting Justice Sandra Day O'Conner in a Supreme Court Decision that she authored, " you have the constitutional right to be stupid" |

Stay in Europe please, will keep our money and not intervene the next time you get in trouble (Iran) so do please stay over there. We will not help at all, just watch as the Muslim horde over runs you and forces you to convert or die ( turkey 1920's) enjoy the burka lady. |

I am an American who follows the Jewish faith. I have over 35 years military service(only one year in combat zone RVN 1969-1970). My second son has 7 gruesome combat deployments and has been on active duty since September 2000 as a Naval Aviator. I guess we are about as patriotic as any other US family notwithstanding that some idiot thinks all Jews are Marxists. Marxists, including those who influence Qbama, are a threat to the nation, except for Groucho. I would be delighted to meet the anti semitic commentator anywhere to resolve this by debate or otherwise. He may even have the choice of weapons, perhaps a limp noodle for him considering his cowardly attitude. Almost forgot. My Dad, a physician, was blind in one eye and had a heart murmur so thus exempt from military duty in WWII. He took sleeping pills to hide the heart murmur and memorized the eye chart and served for the "Duration" in China, Burma, and India in the US Army Air Corps. Liberty, Peter |

You mean like fundie Christians would have it in the US if they got their way? It cracks me up that you cretins think you're any more evolved or civilized than Muslims. You're all a bunch of primitive, superstitious, hateful, violent assholes who want to enslave women and imprison/execute gays. You have much more in common than you think. Get over yourselves. |

None. I'm not blocked on Zatalounge. I only use a proxy when I'm on DL or watching Amazon Prime (which isn't available where I live in Europe). |

What is amusing about a xenophobic American mocking Hindu beliefs is that he probably believes something even more ludicrous: That someone had sex with his own mother to conceive himself so he could fake-kill himself for three days because it was the only way he could not torture the creations he loves for doing what he knew they would do when he created them. That's some crazy, silly shit. |

The FIRST person who should know that patriotism is over-valued is the widow (sexist much?) of anyone lost in all the fake wars America has launched since World War II, the last war that mattered. So fuck you and your banal "support our troops" metallic car tags and your 9-11 grief porn. |

I am sorry - as an American, and a Veteran, I truly take offense to what Michael Shulan had to say about this image being 'Too Rah-Rah American'. We are Americans, we fought for our freedom over two centuries ago; this was again an attack on American soil, raise the flag, raise it so high in defiance to any attacker both foreign and domestic, and shout with pride - 'We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on, we're going to survive.' ... "O say can you see by the dawn's early light, What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming, Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming? And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there; O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave, O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?" And though I quote a movie, which in turn is a modified adaptation from Shakespeare's Henry V, I feel it truly reflects the American people [excluding Mr. Shulan ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Mr. Shulan - aka The Face and Eptiome of the UnAmerican, Hope this bit finds you and yours well, however I wish for you to personally, and face to face explain to every soul who was lost, every family which has and still grieves, and every soldier that has fought for that flag directly... what "Too Rah-Rah American" means following an attack on AMERICAN SOIL. Sincerely, ME

Shulan is obviously not a long time American citizen and highly suspect that he born in the USA. His contempt and decision making process is reprehensible - utterly disrespectful to the memory of the 3000 plus who lost their lives and those responders who sacrificed so much to save them. To 'PPSM' - Gee, continue in your warped and delusional fantasy of mental and intellectual superiority - it is obviously the only thing in your woefully hate filled and pitiful life that gives your ego any strokes. Gratification of any kind is clearly and agonizingly non existent for you! No wonder you are blocked on other sites! Your vile, venomous contempt for anything that is good doesn't play for long! You win at nothing- YAWN! |

God forbid anyone attempt to discuss patriotism or 9/11 without a country song, a flag, a prayer to Jesus, and a thinly veiled threat to brown people everywhere. |
