Monument Envy...Strange

A Dutch war memorial due to be unveiled to the public may soon be scrapped because some townsfolk are concerned with its similarity to...well a large penis.

"The Liberation Monument is a giant copper obelisk that rises and falls depending on the level of sunlight, and spurts flames out of the top during important festivals...

In full sunlight, the erection reaches a height of ten metres, shrinking back to just six metres when the light dims.


Sounds impressive to me. What's the big deal anyway? I mean after all, America has the Washington Monument. Now how can you not look at that and say it's not a fitting tribute to the "father of our country"?
