This week saw the worst mass murder in the history of the world. Potentially tens of thousands of innocent lives, cut short by the fanatical callous hands of suicidal terrorists. Their goal, kill as many people as possible, disrupt the democratic world, damage a way of life. They succeeded.

But where do we go from here? Suddenly, there is a movement to erase the existence of the World Trade Center towers from our memory. Indeed, the New York skyline, and the lives of those connected to it is altered forever. However, three days ago, the World Trade Center did exist. Three days ago it was the heart and soul not only of New York, but of the financial free world. Today, movie theaters, movie web sites, and TV stations across the country are rushing to remove every trace of the WTC's existence from every Billboard, TV Commercial, Movie Trailer, and Movie poster.

The most notable casualty is the upcoming Spider-Man movie, whose trailer prominently featured the twin towers of the World Trade Center. Now, across the country, theaters and TV stations at the direction of Sony Pictures, rush to expunge the trailer from existence. Posters are being pulled down and mailed back to Sony. Web sites, like Spider-Man Hype are taking any images off their site that contain pictures of the WTC. All in a misguided attempt to spare the American people pain. To take away one more reminder of what occurred September 11, 2001.

This is wrong. The World Trade Center did exist. To pretend it did not is an affront to those who died and fought and lost there that fateful Tuesday. Pulling a few pictures down off the wall will not spare people pain. Every time New Yorkers look at their beloved sky they must be reminded. Its good to remember. It is right that we never forget what happened that day. Never forget. Remember the past, acknowledge what happened there, and move on with our lives. Find a way to cope, find a way to make sure this NEVER happens again. But do not try to forget.

Go on living and remembering. We owe the victims that much. Don't give these murderers the satisfaction of seeing us flinch.
