I disagree with President Obama’s support of the construction of a mosque near the site where thousands of Americans were killed by radical Islamic jihadists.
All of us support the right of people to practice their religion. No one would deny that to Muslims or any other faith. That is not at issue here. Out of deference to the wishes of the families of the deceased, and to deny extremists fodder for their anti-American propaganda, we should not construct a mosque near Ground Zero. I believe we should look for an alternative location that would permit Muslims a new place to worship while also respecting the memories of the fallen.

Good for you, John. We agree wholeheartedly!
I totally agree with the statement made above. Not only would building the mosque lay the groundwork for extremists foder with anti-American propoganda – it would also give the “American zealists” a platform to spew their hate against anyone of a Muslim religion.
