Did anybody know about the plans for a 13-story mosque near the WTC, or did the group planning to build it operate mostly under the radar until the May 10th community committee meeting? Perhaps there’s been no outcry because most people are simply unaware.

In any case, why does Rauf’s group want to build a mosque that close to Ground Zero, knowing what happened there, if not to rub our faces in it? A Muslim mosque towering over Ground Zero is an unacceptable humiliation no American should tolerate.

Additionally, a mosque that large would bring thousands of Muslims into the area, and how long would it be before they start agitating to have Ground Zero covered over with a strip mall, or a Muslims-only park?
