Russian 9-11 Memorial

A video about the amazing memorial to the victims of 9-11, erected in Bayonne, New Jersey, by the people and government of Russia. This monumental memorial was dedicated on September 11, 2006, on the fifth anniversary of the terrorist attacks of 9-11-01. If this is the first time that you're hearing about this memorial...join the club. While our own government has been mired in political controversy for the past seven years, and has done little to honor the thousands who died on 9-11-01, the Russians have done, what we're apparently too partisan to do...honor our dead in a dramatic and meaningful way.
