I Dont Think There Should be a Mosque near Ground Zero

But that's just my opinion....

Building a mosque (more like community center with a mosque inside, developer said) so close to the heart of pain and suffering that 9/11 brought to the people, is an 'insult to New Yorkers.'

I think sensitivity is an issue and a big factor. And yes, have people forgotten 9/11?

The proposed mosque by the Cordoba Initiative is stirring up heated debates for those oppose and in favor. Read more via CBS. See the comments too. People have a lot to say too.

A Mosque maligned - via NY Times. Read the article and the comments too

Islamist expert thinks it's more of political statement.

The question to ask and ponder ... why there? Why the land? Who is funding that? Is it really for cultural identity and to foster relations (with the west or other faiths). Questions left unanswered. So the skeptics.

Okay so American Muslims and Muslims in general are good people. It's the terrorist, extremist and radicals that makes the Muslims bad.

There is nothing wrong building that community center/mosque. They do have good intentions. They need a place where they can gather, pray, worship, teach, foster good relations and mainly a center for the majority of Muslims who needs help whether it be jobs or lawyers, for recreational purposes or just for everyday community center.

I know what they want to achieve with the center/mosque. I'm not an American and I don't live in the US much less NY but if I am...I would want something like that. One that would cater to my culture, where I don't have to feel indifferent because of my race or my faith.

However, building a mosque in NY gives Bin Laden (if he still alive.. is he?) another chance to wipe out New Yorkers. Americans. Al Qaeda and the extremists took years planning that 9/11 attack . A planned mosque/center for Muslims is easy mechanism for extremists. The center can be a tool they can use and service their needs for something that we should all be vigilant

C'mon. Be a realist. Everyone knows what's going to happen if a mosque is to be build in New York so close to ground zero.
