“Americana Pride Products!” |
|
features pins commemorating 9-11-2001, the toppling of Iraq’s oppressive dictatorship and our continuing support of United States troops, where ever they’re stationed. If you’ve been collecting pins, you’ll find one to express your feelings in our Pin Collection. In June (2002) we introduced the first two “Lest we forget” 11-ounce commemorative mugs. There are three mugs currently in the collection: 2001, 2002, and 2003. The 2004 design will be added to the Collection and made available after September 11, 2004. These mugs were conceived when Michael Jacobs e-mailed us a picture on the afternoon of 9-11-2001 which he had taken of the twin towers just months before their destruction earlier in the day. After talking about the terrible tragedy that had just occurred, Michael modified the image and thus his award winning photograph, “Reflections™”, was conceived. Then came the prose for “Lest We Forget,” followed by the second mug in the series, followed by the third. The two ladies in the picture below are (on the left) Ruby Handler Jacobs (Michael's wife) and (on the right) Georgiana Rose, Michael's daughter and Sam’s G-d daughter. This picture was unposed and taken within hours of the infamous attack on the Twin Towers in NYC. Americana Pride Products has exciting merchandise that represents the tragic events of September 11, 2001, our liberation of Iraq and most importantly. . . products that reflect American Patriotism and American Pride. |

The two letters below were conceived and written on September 12, 2001, the day after the brutal attack on two of our nation’s landmarks. While we have elected to put the New York Holocaust Department to rest, and have replaced that Department with Americana Pride Products, we felt the contents of our letters (one written by Sam and one by our staff) should still be displayed.
| An Open
Letter from the SALA-GROUP Staff We are writing you today with very heavy hearts. On September 11, 2001, thousands of American citizens were horribly murdered in several dastardly terrorist attacks within our boundaries. Our prayers and deepest sympathies are with all the victims and their families. Our dream has always been about building a GLOBAL community. . . a brotherhood of men and women from every walk of life, united in the goal of improving lives and working together for mutual benefit. Although we’ve often referred to our objective as “putting a dent in the universe,” what we really mean is CHANGING THE WORLD, making it a better and safer place for our children and our grandchildren. Like hundreds of millions of people around the world shaken by this catastrophe, we too have been deeply shaken; however, even though we here in America have had our very foundation attacked, our objectives in pursuing our dream will not change. We WILL make the world a better place and we CAN have peace on earth for all people. All of us at SALA-GROUP™ (Sam, Jodi, David, and Harold) are determined to be a part of that peace. No matter where you live in the world, we urge you to get personally involved. Do whatever you can. We firmly believe that we are at a great crossroads in history. What we do at this moment will greatly affect the rest of our lives, and what all of our futures will hold. We can either be proactive and have GOOD come out of this tragedy or we can let negative decisions be made for us. Remember that we here in America are an extended family, and together, as a family, we can do things in the coming weeks, months and years to help make sure this happens NEVER AGAIN.
Let us all unite now. May God’s blessings be with us all, The SALA-GROUP Staff |
An open letter to all
inhabitants of this planet called Earth from an old man named Sam DID THE TERRORISTS MISCALCULATE? The answer is an understatement! These despicable individuals with no regard for anyone other than those who support their “cause” have unwittingly not only united the inhabitants of the United States of America, but have most likely helped to initiate the beginnings of a united mankind. My life-long dream of leaving our children and grandchildren a world with one race – the race of mankind – might have been propelled forward by this dastardly deed. We Americans, as a nation, are the most generous people on all the Earth. We’ve aided a majority of third-world nations in helping to bring them into the 21st Century. Other than the Gulf War, where we had a strong coalition of allies, we have always been one of a few countries that helped other nations advance their technology thereby enriching the lives of their citizens. It pleases me that Israel, our strongest ally in the Middle East, has also sent not only technicians to these third-world nations, but also has provided medical and humanitarian aid. Now the terrorists, with their vicious attack and utter disregard for human life, have united countries all over this planet as never before in the history of man. President George W. Bush has publicly announced that there “will not be a cave to hide in nor a rock to hide under that we will not search out” and bring each and every one of these cowards down. Secretary of State Colin Powell has also publicly stated that any nation aiding and abetting these terrorists will also be considered an enemy of freedom-loving people everywhere. To the point, the United States of America will consider a host country as an enemy who is just as culpable as the terrorists themselves. After hearing the rescue workers yelling “USA, USA, USA” at “Ground Zero” during the President’s recent visit to New York, I’ve asked friends and associates from all over America to help me provide wearable Americana to proudly display for the world to see. These pages are the fruits of my efforts. All of the merchandise in our Americana Pride Department * is priced with our regular Suggested Retail prices; we have not altered nor raised them. Why are we doing this? Because John F. Kennedy once said, “Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country!” It’s time to do something for my country. |
Marty Steinberg, a learned man, reminds us of the Nostradamus Quatrain 6,97 (1503-1566):
| “At forty-five degrees the sky
will burn Fire to approach the great new city: In an instant a great flame wil leap up, When one will want to demand proof of the Normans.” We can take that Michel de Notredame, more commonly known as Nostradamus, predicted this catastrophe nearly 600 years ago. The great city of “New” York is located on the 41st degree latitude. The second aircraft struck the World Trade center tower at a 45-degree angle. “Fire” could refer to the fuel in the aircraft. “The Normans” refers to brutal invaders. . . terrorists! |
