The Twin Towers Alliance Petition When someone dies it is impossible to bring them back to life, but we are given a unique opportunity to do just that in this case; 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 words of our petition ring as true now as they did in 2006. And the thousands of comments that have been left since we first posted it are just a glimpse into how much people have always cared about rebuilding the World Trade Center in a way that would honor the will of the people and the price this country – and the world – paid on 9/11. Now, even though a third tower has joined the two pictured above, the WTC skyline doesn't come close to the awe-inspiring vision of the towers we lost. We trust that time will take care of rebuilding the Twin Towers. From their inception, they were dedicated to world peace and cooperation in ways that no other commercial structure ever was. And, they came to represent the aspirations of millions of people as no other towers ever could. They should not have been abandoned. We have faith that one day the people of this country and the world will recognize the Twin Towers' powerful significance and demand they be restored to the world's skyline. We thank each one who adds his or her name and comment to the petition below for moving our world one step closer to that transcendent day.

I am a portuguese guy and i want the beutifull wtc exactly as it was,because the terrorists will never win
My grandfather built those buildings with many other brave men. To have them knocked down by a group of spineless jerk offs would be a slap in his face. So lets rebuild, send a message you can break our walls but never tear us down.
I think it will be great making the twin towers 2. New York is well known for those towers.
Yes, build them back please. As citizen of the world, no other construction will do for New York what the original towers will. Bring back the Lower Manhattan landscape.
I have always felt that the twin towers should be rebuilt and correctly this time. I was disappointed when I heard they were not going to rebuild them. I realize that it is a very hard task at hand. It would mean jobs for many people also.
We can rebuild america one step at a time, starting with the world trade center.
I worked in the trade center in the early 70’s as a Drywall taper. And I was always proud of that. But most of all we need to rebuild them and not show that we live in fear. If we can spend trillions on this war why not rebuild the towers giving thousands of people much needed jobs here at home. And most of all let’s do it in remembrance to all of those who died that fateful day on Sept 11. 2001. Let’s rebuild for them. God bless America.
I always said that we should show the world we can not be intimadated. If you knock our buildings down we will be them back. If you knock them down again we will build three fold. We are not to show fear, Americans need to stand tall and show the world and our enemies that we will not live in fear..I worked in the trade centers as a drywall taper..God Bless America
the twin towers are a historic trademark for america. THEY MUST BE RESTORED!!! and to also show u can not bring us down.
First and foremost as a proud NY’er, I understand and feel the pain with all of those who lost loved ones on that tragic day. As a child, I did not see my father for the first years of my life because he was busy ‘building his towers’. He was a foreman for the cement and concrete union, was on the job for all those years and I didn’t mind one bit. I got to see my dad’s work every day, and HE was so proud of that. Unfortunately, I lost him right after the attacks of 9/11. REBUILD THE TOWERS!
WE NEED TO REBUILD WHAT WAS THERE AND SO BEAUTIFUL. WE CANNOT LET ANYTHING STAND IN OUR WAY, NOT POLITICS, NOT FINANACES …. NOTHING… LETS REBUILD!!!!
Please help the alliance and the people of New York City get back what we miss so much, the twin towers! I was a maintenance electrician at the towers and loved to go to work every day as did those who were fortunate to work there as well. I believe that we would show great strength as a nation by rebuilding the Towers. N.Y.C. union construstion can build a safer, stronger, and better than ever World Trade Center.
NY skyline needs the twin towers back. Rebuild because it will send a message like from a famous American Terminator (Schwarzenegger) it will speak volumes of “I’m baaaaaacccck!!
It sucks a whole lot not to see the twin towers.
Rebuild now!We are the people! Not the press!
Carpenters Local 1144
Lets do it!
Rebuild Now!! When I watch movies made in New York after 9/11, it is like a big hole in the skyline and I get angry all over again. People rise up like we all did with Senate’s skewed amnesty bill and get this thing rebuilt.
