I'm sure that Poland would be glad to have a big Swastika near the death camp at Auschwitz; Israel would be glad to feature a similar Nazi symbol near the Holocaust Museum; Simon Wiesenthal would be glad to honor Adolph Eichmann for his contributions to Jewish Culture; the Cemetery in Normandy where America's dead is buried would accept a Nazi Symbol near the entrance; and Pearl Harbor would be glad to have a museum dedicated to the Japanese fliers who bombed Pear Harbor. This Mosques at the former WTC site should be opposed by everyone in America. Build it someplace else in the city.

Who's putting up the $100M?

NEW YORK (AP) - A 13-story mosque is planned near the World Trade Center site, in a building that was damaged by airplane debris on Sept. 11, 2001.

A Lower Manhattan community board said Wednesday that it supported the $100 million mosque and cultural center. The project is aimed at creating a space for the neighborhood's growing Muslim population.

Supporters say the history associated with the damaged former department store was one reason to pick it.

But some 9/11 victims' families said they were offended by the idea.

Massapequa resident Rosemary Cain called the plan "despicable." She lost a son on 9/11.

The American Society for Muslim Advancement and the Cordoba Initiative said the project would help to improve relations between the West and Muslims.
