Speaking just as a US citizen. any disrespect or perceived disrespect to the events surrounding 9/11 are horrific to me. I lost co-workers in that horrible attack. I/we waited for days in hopes survivors would be found. I have 2 friends that will never know what happened to their husbands because the bodies were never found in the rubble. I don't think it's acceptable for a young Russian girl to skate to the voices and sounds from the attack....and then have people worrying about whether she underrotated a jump, yada! yada! And I'm sure people feel the exact way - if not more so - with the horribleness of the Holocaust. I do think Lip's freeskate was tastefully done. Not so much the other programs. I do think these programs are designed to evoke emotions and attention but in sort of a warped way. JMO.
