The new US Air Force Memorial, located next to the Navy Annex in Arlington, Virginia and largely built with donations from Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon, United Technologies, and even the United Arab Emirates Air Force (the UAE was a major financial hub for Al Qaeda and was from where money for the 9-11 hijackers was transferred. The Air Force Memorial sits right on the Pentagon crash flight path of American Airlines Flight 77) looks like a giant coat track jutting into the sky and dominating the Washington, Dc skyline. Although it is designed to look like an Air Force “bomb burst” formation, many Washington area residents see it as an unwelcome eyesore, more reminiscent of something Nikita Khrushchev would have built honoring the Soviet space program in a Soviet Potemkin city than a military service memorial. Casting its bizarre shadow over Arlington National Cemetery, the $30 million gaudy stainless steel memorial was the brainchild of the Air Force Memorial Foundation, headed by Ross Perot, Jr., but it also had the personal support of then-Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Richard Myers of the US Air Force.

Some more religious people have commented that the three spires of the memorial look somewhat “Satanic” in nature because the spires resemble “horns.” The New American Bible, Book of Daniel, Chapter 7, verse 7, contains this passage: “After this, in the visions of the night I saw the fourth beast, different from all the others, terrifying, horrible, and of extraordinary strength; it had great iron teeth with which it devoured and crushed, and what was left it trampled with its feet. I was considering the ten horns it had, when suddenly another, a little horn, sprang out of their midst, and three of the previous horns were torn away to make room for it. This horn had eyes like a man, and a mouth that spoke arrogantly.” Well, for the more evangelical readers of WMR, the three “horns” springing out of the ground in Arlington are directly west of a mouth that speaks “arrogantly” and it is located in the White House.
