Having a mosque built where almost 3000 people lost their lives to Muslim extremists?! Back in the 7th & 8th centuries, one of the first things Muslim Caliphs did was to build a mosque over any land they had conquered, which was basically to say, "We own you."

I do'nt know about the rest of you, but I seriously think this an insult to the people who were killed, their families, and the men and women risking their lives to defend this nation from terrorists.

Considering that the US is a democracy, shouldn't the people be surveyed about their opinion? Perhaps a vote of all the people in the city should be conducted, to see if they want it.

There has been various surveys done , and the most favorable one had 71% of people say that that it should NOT be be built.

I don't support this either, (and much less obummer's support) but I read an article yesterday, I'll try and find it (but I couldn't for the moment) that there is an existing mosque within 6 blocks or so now?! heh. Almost makes this argument silly...ALMOST.

Bav, I wonder if the mosque you are mentioning, pre-dates the 9-11 attacks. I think some people view this as "Holy Ground" or, the same as building a mosque in a cemetery. JMO
