Reid: Build mosque elsewhere
hosted.ap.org...
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Senate's top Democrat says a mosque should not be built near the site of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
Sen. Harry Reid of Nevada on Monday became the highest profile Democrat to break with President Barack Obama, who on Friday backed the right for the developers to build a mosque near ground zero.
In a statement, Reid said the first amendment protects freedom of religion and he respects that, but the mosque should be built somewhere else.

Personally I'm hoping that Haaretz is wrong, simply because otherwise, a very ugly precedent is set.

I do not care what the reasons. I read a story the other day that said 68 % of Americans are against this. If true then this is a fine example of democracy in action. The people have spoken, no matter what their reasons, this is the law of our land and therefore is right and just.

Thanx shady Americans for not being cool how sad ran them off too. Now what if it was a SECRET evaluation THAT THE POWERS THAT BE (whom I am sure consist of muslims as well as other religious groups) ran to see if the US WAS WORTHY IN THE BIG APPLE of real peace and love for their fellow brothers
