"It's a seed of peace," board member Rob Townley said. "We believe that this is significant step in the Muslim community to counteract the hate and fanaticism in the minority of the community."

Re: NYC community board OKs ground zero mosque plans
what the fuck is wrong with what used to be our country?
so do we get to put up churches, temples, synagogs, a Tom Cruise love shack, and spaghetti monster shrine too?
having read it, it's a "multi-cultural building, with a worship space." wonder how many faiths will be represented or allowed into the worship space.

By these pictures I don't really see ground zero as a holy ground

Re: NYC community board OKs ground zero mosque plans
I don't particularly support this mosque, or any other for that matter, but it is looking a lot like the press created this, and the lefty/righty pundits have had a field day.
As for those pictures...yup, that's New York.

I know Bush was a bumbling idiot when he talked, but he didn't step in it constantly like Obama.
