Ground Zero Mosque? The reality is less provacative

Yesterday I made a post that was all about how we shouldn't be allowing our differences of opinions hinder the remembrance of those who lost their lives in the 9/11 attack or those who have died fighting for our country so that we may retain the freedoms afforded to ALL AMERICANS by our nations founding fathers.

Lets have a history recap here will quick.

The founding fathers penned the Declaration of Independence, what at the time was an act of tyranny against the crown of England, siting multiple (27 i believe) Biblical Violations of the church of England (national and government supported establishment).

This could be why, when our Constitution and Bill of Rights was written the very first Right given to American Citizens was as follows:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

The government is not to hinder the establishment of religion, or prohibit the free exercise thereof, they are not to hinder the right of the people to peacefully assemble (with in a building or outside of one).

On 9/11 America was attacked.  The means Christians, Atheists, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, and so on down the line of religions and religious establishments, were attack as well.  Those of Islamic faith here in America were as much effected by the turmoil and loss as were any other religious group in this nation.

If we are to not allow their freedoms afforded to them by our bill of rights because they happen to profess the same faith and the radical extremists who attacked us, then the terrorists have won.  They have made us stop being Americans, they have made us stop valuing the melting pot of people and cultures that formed this country. They have made us as intolerant as they are, and if we hinder the Rights of the Islamic Americans, than we are no better than they are and this then justifies their attack on us.  This is the very reason they claimed to have attacked us, they claim that we stand in their way, hinder them, and hate them, and for that reason they hate us and attacked us.  We are proving the terrorists right, and only giving them more fuel to the fire.


How could we in less than 10 years go from a united patriotic nation revert back to the same fractured and hateful country that we were before the civil rights movement?  All we've done is switch skin color for religion. And the terrorist win, they're imploding us upon ourselves.

Don't let the terrorist win, show them no matter what they do they will NEVER stop us from being AMERICANS.  Don't let the efforts of the soldiers fighting and dying for these freedoms for ALL Americans be in vain.


Also IT'S NOT A MOSQUE, and it's more than two blocks AWAY from ground zero.  At least the British can see past American Media crap and see it for what it is.  Please read
