In the matter of moderate Muslims, there are actually two mosques in the vicinity of Ground Zero. They are small and few non-Muslims are aware of their presence. The controversy has been created by the triumphalist design and promotion of this $100 million structure. Personally, I doubt they will ever get the money. Saudi sheiks do not throw their money out the window, although they might bet too much on baccarat in Monaco when they have had too much 20 year old scotch. This is just an attempt at self promotion by this imam and there are lots of useful idiots being outed at the same time.
