Mosque to go up near New York's ground zero The mosque project has gotten mixed reviews from families and friends of 9/11 victims. Plans to build a mosque two blocks away from ground zero have set off an emotional debate among area residents and relatives of victims of the September 11, 2001 terror attacks. Cordoba House project calls for a 15-story community center including a mosque, performance art center, gym, swimming pool and other public spaces.

there is not tolerance in the koran go read it for yourself , tell them you let them build the mosque when they let you build a church in saudi arebia respect the victims of 911 political correctness i going to destroy our country in europe they are taking actions we need to do the same before is to late stop islam they will not stop until the usa will became an islamic country under sharia low
Francesca Ehlke alias Fatima Alzahara Livingforthefirsttime? Is this really you? You are a devout Shiia Muslim can't believe a person changes her mind so often in two years . Please go take your madication !Say hello to your "iraquie toy" husband of yours .......
there is not moderate islmam i became a muslim for about a year i left that religion in horror there is nothing but hate and violence do not let them foul you i was briefly married in an islamic wedding to a muslim cleric one of the most prominent figure of islam in this country and the world i know what islam is is not the religion of peace. stop the mosque on on ground zero is an insult and stop the islamization of our country respect the victims of 9 11
So you were briefly married to a Muslim Cleric ? You left Islam but now you are back to Shiaa Islam . What is next Suffie Islam?
There is nothing wrong with Islam the problem is the loosers and criminals who convert to Islam > Let the Mosque be build in NY after all that was and old Syrian neighborhood at the begining of the 20 th century . They are only coming back home
I'm a vet of the viet nam era and my fellow Americans make me sick when it comes to patroitism. Has anyone asked, why do the moslems insist on building a mosque at ground zero or the immediate vicinity????? I think it's a slap in the faces of all the Americans killed there, on America's ground. Read and remember your history Americans.....America was born as a Christian Country. I say donot let them builded that.....SUPER MOSQUE....atleast not within 10 – 20 miles. And for every mosque builed let their be a church and a temple also.
I'm an Iraq war vet (I say that because for some reason that matters to this debate) Im embarassed and sick at the blatent disregard of the foundation to which this country was built on. You say that America was born as a Christian country, yet there is no proof, but there is in writing, if you read it the freedom of religion. You not only slap America in the face, but every founding father by putting your beliefs of religion in front especially since they worked so hard to assure that religious intolernace will not be accepted.
They choose to build there because there is a large population of Muslims in the area and they need a space to pray and socialize. You disgrace every American and non American person who died to include the many Muslims.
Why can't they build a mosque in that area?????????
I'm just curios to know, if the US was built as a Christian nation, why is it that there is no mention of it as being so in our Constitution (the one that counts), it seems as though it was purposely left out, why would that be?
It's funny how YOUR beliefs are the exactly reasons why our Founding Fathers left Europe, YOU have become what the founding fathers didn't want. Congratulations sadly.
I will take a hundred mosques run by the "Cordoba" Muslims over one extremist church like the one you go to.
You do understand that those who have not served in the Military can be Patriotic as well? (after all your fellow bigots Palin and Gingrich never served) As well your determination of what Patriotic is just your Fundy Christian beliefs masked behind your "patriotic beliefs".
