NY Gov. to discuss relocating Muslim center
2010-08-18
[Al Arabiya Latest] New York Governor David Paterson plans to discuss relocating a proposed Muslim cultural center and mosque to a less emotionally charged location farther from New York City's "Ground Zero" site of the Sept. 11 attacks.
How about Bolivia?
How about Islamabad?
"We are working with the developers," Paterson's spokeswoman Maggie McKeon said. "There have not been any formal discussions between the governor, the imam or the developer. However, we expect to have a meeting scheduled in the near future."

U.S. Representative Peter King of New York said he discussed the issue with Paterson on Tuesday and the governor told him he would meet this week with Muslim officials to discuss providing state funds to help the center find another location.
How about if they sell their expensive downtown Noo Yawk property and move someplace where their money'll go further, like Bangladesh?

#3  Just move it to the Lower East Side, triangulated with the established synagogues.

#2  NY government are gullible clowns to offer this. Tell them to FO and call it good. Time to vote them out. The thing was only half funded at best. Maybe this was their goal all along, or one of the "Plan B's".

#1  NYC will move the mosque and tax dollars will end up building it. Someone the other day said,"Watch the money". Well it will be easy now, just open up your wallet and watch it go, if your from NY.
