Once I found examples you came up with an excuse as to why they don’t count.


you posted ONE example, both the submarine and the warship were participating in the same event, a multinational event, which every country can fly their flags on. That is NOT flying flags "above Pearl Harbor" (for the 27th time).

And the Muslims who died in 9/11 should be given the same respect as Jews and Christians

And they are. The t-bar is no different than any of the other exhibits there.
In the United Nations, there was a permanent exhibit of the atom bomb that was dropped in Nagasaki and Hiroshima. This exhibit included dishes, personal items, and the like, and it also included a statue of St Agnus that was that had fallen over when the bomb went off, and the whole back was blackened, but the front was still intact, as it fell in the dirt. That was an exhibit there, and it did NOT promote "Christianity" at the exhibit any more than this cross does. It's part of the history.

THE PERMANENT DISARMAMENT COLLECTION AT THE UNITED NATIONS

The statue of Saint Agnes stands in the centre of the permanent collection at the United Nations. The damaged statue was found in the ruins of a Roman Catholic Cathedral in Nagasaki, Japan in 1945. The Cathedral was completely destroyed when the atomic bomb exploded half a kilometre away. The charring and mottling on the back of the statue are the result of the intense heat and radiation.


And since no other religious symbols are used in construction you’ve created a criteria that can only be met by cross how convenient.

I gave many examples of items that may have been found. You attacked that post and said "so now you are saying they should be taken from the rubble". Well yeah, that's where the t-bar comes from, it's not like they are shipping in some irrelevant religious item from somewhere to profess anything.
