INDIANAPOLIS — Indianapolis ' tribute to the September 11 terrorist attacks now has a spray-painted message referencing the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict.
"I can't tell you or the public what I would like to do to those people," said Sherman Goodwin, the executive director of the Indiana War Memorials Commission, which maintains the memorial."They obviously don't have any respect. They don't understand how the world works." "On that day, I was Chief of Staff of the Indiana Air National Guard, and two of our pilots escorted Air Force One from Nebraska back to Washington D.C.," Goodwin recalled.
Goodwin said he has a team of veterans ready to clean up the graffiti the moment the weather clears up.
