The Twin Towers Alliance Petition "We, the undersigned, share the belief that nothing could be more inspiring to our people, or disheartening to our enemies, than Twin Towers, at least as tall as before in every respect, soaring above Ground Zero. "We believe that the devastation of September 11, 2001, clouded the picture long after the rubble was cleared away and that a thorough public examination of the rebuilding option is overdue and now required before proceeding on an unalterable course. "We recognize no financial or political roadblocks that cannot be overcome if rebuilding the Towers is the will of the people. And, we see no conflict between stunning Twin Towers and a noble Memorial, which belong together on this site that means so much to us all. "We submit that there is only one way to truly heal the skyline of Manhattan and the heart of America: Rebuild the Twin Towers. Doing anything less would leave a permanent scar on the face of New York and diminish a legendary city." The statement above rings just as true in 2013 as it did in 2006. The thousands of comments that have been left on the petition over the years are just the tip of an iceberg. The question to consider is not will new state-of-the-art Twin Towers be built — which no one knows for sure — but should new Twin Towers be built, on which most of us have always agreed. The finances and politics at the site are in shambles. There is no guarantee that the other two towers will ever be built — giving us not a World Trade Center, but a lasting disgrace. Now, in 2013, the only right course is to establish what it would take to restore the majestic skyline with 21st-century Twin Towers soaring above the Freedom Tower and let the people decide if it is worth it or not — since the public is the primary stakeholder in every sense of the word and few things could matter more to the well-being and direction of our country. If you agree with our efforts and goal, sign the petition. Don't believe the propaganda. It's not true...

my uncle was at the world trade center the day of the attack. my uncle was a sheriff and tried to save as many people as he could.
Stand up and show the world – NYC is NOT IMPOTENT: rebuild the Towers!
never forget 343
I am the son of Retired F.D.N.Y. Lieutenant James Cierzniewski. He and myself lost what we considered 343 members of our family on September 11. The only right thing to do is to rebuild to show that these Brave few didn’t lose their lives in vain. Also to show we are stronger then ever before to those that are responsible for taking the lives of everyone that died innocently that day.
My cousin was murdered on 9-11 along with 342 other brave firefighters. That day, and the days that followed were all about loss and destruction, and rising above it all with unity and courage and a refusal to let those who were murdered that day be forgotten or lessened in any way. Rebuild the towers, rebuild the bravery and let that tell the story. Let it tell the story of all the heroes, and let them be a constant reminder of the enduring spirit of the American people.
The Twin Towers should absolutely be rebuilt to honor the memory of those who were killed. It would symbolize a strong America and show the world that the USA will continue to be strong and stay strong!
God Bless America
My father is retired FDNY. Many of our friends died that day. My aunt was on the 93rd floor. Growing up in Staten Island, I always loved the sight of the Towers when I looked at the City. Every time I pass the site where the twins were, I feel anger and rage. Those animals stole a part of my heritage. The Twin Towers were like the Grand Canyon, no picture or book could ever capture its awe-inspiring emotion. Rebuild the Twin Towers.
I remember them being built, worked on the site after 9/11 and would love to see them again.
hi my uncle a fireman died tryng to save people. in his honor and alot of other people we should rebuild.
