I'm sick to death of having this site treated as just another commercial development. The history of the site - the awful slaughter that took place there, it's historical significance as a decisive moment in the War on Terror, it's symbolic importance as (if they ever get the damned thing rebuilt)American resilience in the face of terror... precludes that sort of thinking.
