Polish city ravaged by Nazis to cut Hitler's tree
The towering tree is believed to have been Adolf Hitler's gift to the occupied town of Jaslo — planted to the sound of a Nazi band during World War II. Town authorities now want it cut down and burned to make way for a new roundabout. But some residents have become attached to the 40-foot (12-meter) oak and are lobbying to save it.
"The tree has not hurt anyone and is not guilty of anything," protest organizer Kazimierz Polak said, adding that his group was appealing to local and regional authorities to preserve the tree. "It is growing healthy and tall. Let it grow."

Then why don't you climb up to near the top of it and stay for a few weeks so we can have lots of threads making fun of you?
And why in the hell build a roundabout?I remember when I learnt to drive I read in the road code book that roundabouts were designed to keep traffic moving through intersections at all times.
I suppose they work ok in Europe
