Why building a mosque near "ground zero" is bad

   Well I'm reading now that they are continuing the plans for the building of the mosque so I will update the thread with the link. I believe the idiot Sarah Palin commented on this by using a non-word not even in a dictionary. Anyway I will keep you guys posted.

	Yeah I agree with you two. I wouldn't want to go to a mosque at ground zero for fear of some radical American terrorist... I mean, maybe a cultural center? It seems like a lot of people like the idea of a multi-cultural project there, what about a global understanding thing? Like flags of every country, imported jewelry or something. Like a global exchange? Have ethnic classes in pottery/language/etc? Maybe if it was a super Sufi mosque it'd be okay. I dunno.

	Gibbs, I agree with your above comment. It would be insensitive to go ahead with it. How near is 'near'? People are still suffering the effects of 9/11..call it PTSD if you like. And I don;t believe it will benefit muslims in the long term with their relationships with others in the US.

	I believe its bad for the simple fact that for the sake of political correctness muslims should allow a good two decades for the feelings to fade. Because of societal media, people are influenced by how Islam has negatively effected America. If a mosque is built I do believe vandalism would happen whether the first day, second day, or a month from now. I believe that the idea of Islam still has a negative connotation and people especially Muslims building the mosque needs to be smart
