The US flag from the world trade center was used in the opening ceremonies for the Olympic Games. I think it was a great thing to do as it was a definite symbol of unity among our nation. GOOD LUCK USA OLYMPIANS.

USA ALL THE WAY!!!

I also support the idea of using that, as it is a great idea, and I just think that is shows great respect to what this nation has gone through and what many people will continue to go through

I found the fact that they used the the WTC flag very touching. I'm very happy that they chose to use the WTC flag as well. :)
