Google Earth Forces $600,000 Navy Bill
The Navy is embarking on a $600,000 alteration of meaningless barracks facility near San Diego, changing the look of the 40-year old building so it no longer resembles a swastika. Because of the availability and popularity of Google Maps, Google Earth, and other satelite maps services, people noticed the shape of the building, which matches the logo of the Nazi party, causing a mini and constly uproar that otherwise would never have happened.
The Navy said officials noted the buildings’ shape after the groundbreaking in 1967 but decided against changing it at the time because it wasn’t obvious from the ground. Aerial photos made available on such services as Windows Live and Google Earth in recent years have since revealed the buildings’ shape to a wide audience.
On the one hand, the building’s shape is unusual but efficient, and not that big a deal, and they could have just ignored it. On the other hand, if we can get the swastika building changed, perhaps we can start cleaning up all the buildings left behind by the Freemasons before their strange architecture begins confusing our Thetan masters.
Hey - if they are changing the barracks to not look like a swastika (a religious symbol with thousands of years of use PRIOR to its usurption by the Nazis) when will they make the pentagon not look like, well a pentagon. Exactly what kind of demon have they trapped there?

Mr. Weinberg appears to be rather insensitive. i have a friend who is a holocaust survivor. whenever she hears a knock on her door, she flashes back to the terror of those Nazi war years and becomes frightened. rather than questioning why the building shape should be changed, mr. weinberg might have asked who approved the design in the first place. after WWII the US invited many former Nazis citizenship in return for their technical knowhow. perhaps the building was designed by one of them.

This is a national atrocity.
That our government would allow this to be built in the first place, and then to appropriate $600,000 more for a facelift to this facility today for a 40+ year old building is unconsiable!

The US Navy along with the Army and Marines were part of the US military that lost hundreds of thousands of memebrs fighting the likes of the Nazis. So many gave their all. Those who belive this was itentional are oversensitive or paranoid or both. Just a couple of decades after doing all tey can to wipe the Nazis from the face of the earth, our military didn’t intentionally create a Nazi symbol to stand the test of time. Replacing of altering these barracks because of this is just another example of the U.S. goverments incredible waste of money because of some liberal political correctness.

I have seen s few stories about this building for like almost 2 yesars now. Now it has gotten enough attention that they are rebuilding it wich I think that it would be illogical and compleatly improbable that they did not notice it was shaped like a swastika in the first place.In the building plans it would of been clearly visable,not only would of the builders them selves seen it but more importantly the people in the Navy who apporved its funding and construction would of clearly seen it before even the builders. I doubt they would have “Not” noticed it. This is the real question.
