Steel from the WTC built a new warship?

[The2ndWheel]

Or used in the building of a new warship? Flipping through the channels, Fox news comes up, with that at the bottom of the screen. The USS New York, from what I heard, although I really wasn't listening since I kept trying to read the screen about steel from the WTC being used in building a new warship.

Then there's the on again, off again, PNAC tower...I mean, Freedom Tower.

I give up. I'm done. This shit was going on before Bush, it's not going to stop after Bush. Globalization, militarization, you can keep it. I want no goddamn part of it. I'm sick of it. A fucking warship.

1. We are living in "1984"

Perpetual war for perpetual peace ... thanks, Gore Vidal. My heart just sank to read that. REVENGE is all these BFEE animals care about.

2. Good way to cover up the evidence

Especially those pieces with Thermite on them.

NEW YORK Apr 3, 2006 (AP)— With a year to go before it even touches the water, the Navy's amphibious assault ship USS New York has already made history twice. It was built with 24 tons of scrap steel from the World Trade Center, and it survived Hurricane Katrina.

That combination of disasters gives the ship a unique standing among the 500 or so Avondale, La., shipyard workers building it, said Tony Quaglino, a crane superintendent who postponed retirement to have a hand in the New York's construction.

"I think Katrina made us more aware of the tragedy in New York," said the 66-year-old Quaglino. "One was manmade, one was natural, but they're both a common bond."

USS New York is about 45 percent complete and should be ready for launch in mid-2007. Katrina disrupted construction when it pounded the Gulf Coast last summer, but the 684-foot vessel escaped serious damage, and workers were back at the yard near New Orleans two weeks after the storm.

Un'Flippin'believable! :wow:
