To all the mosque apologists
 
To all the people who think that a Mosque should be built anywhere near ground zero. Chew on this, is there a shinto(sic)? shrine at the USS Arizona site ? I think not. Case closed.

Well, I have to say that I saw plenty of Japanese tourists taking pictures...

That isn't even a relevant question since Park51 isn't AT Ground Zero. It is 2 blocks away and around a corner.

It was destroyed by parts from one of the planes so, close enough for me

It's all relative when one has their mind made up beyond repair.

Well, I think it would be a great gesture of love and reconciliation if we took our tax dollars and built a Shinto shrine at that site. The shrine could have a meditation room with murals all around of some of the scenes of destruction of the ships sinking in the harbor and the damaged buildings and U.S. aircraft. Also, a full size replica should be built of a Japanese bomber and placed inside the building or on the grounds.

Maybe it's my age (will be 73 years old before the end of the year); maybe it's the color of the back of my neck (I live about 25 miles from Kentucky); maybe it's my education (1 year Bible College, 1 year secular college --no degree); maybe it's my religious beliefs (Apostoloc Pentecostal); but I do not think it is a good idea to allow Muslims to build a monument to their victory at the site of a successful Islamic attack on the great satan (U.S.A.)

Ditto (everything except being that old)

"Case Closed" unless you care about law, order, constitutional rights, liberty, and the ability to think.

I don't think any of us believe that the Muslims are prohibited by the U.S. constitution to build a building designated for religious assembly there. This goes beyond their constitutional right. This is perceived (rightly or not) to be an "in your face" memorial to their victory over the U.S. there. Even the name that was originally proposed for the center (Cordoba) carried that implication.
