#1 Is there nothing that we can do at this point?!

It sure is a 'symbol', and one that in my view is so wrong for ground zero.

How is it this 'slipped by'? Unf***ingbelievable. That New Yorkers along with the rest of America, who again put their trust in our government/management, which certainly gets an F- for this catastrophe . To make the right choices in choosing a company that would be put in charge, to hopefully make smart and sensitive decisions into the rebuilding of this site. I'm sure there must have been several layers of approvals that must have been necessary to get to this final decision right?

I remember just regarding the architecture alone the first year after how the public was solicited with many billboard pictures of what it would look like and to vote on the design they preferred. Not even looking into what businesses were being considered.

I'd like to see those responsible investigated to see if there were any payoff's. I don't want to believe that Americans would willingly want to put a Mosque at Ground Zero. This sends chills and is so very tragic. We all know of many Anti American sentiments that have been perpetrated in mosques across our country.

I'd like to see head's roll over this one. I embrace diversity, not a f***ing takeover of our country a little bit at a time. This is a big bit.

Bad mojo.

#2 They'd best be careful, or they'll find out what persecution is all about.

Supposing a "smart bomb" went stupid?

#6 Start leaving a pig carcass at the site, within the structure or on the grounds - once a week and take photographs. The muslims may not be able to use the property and if they in fact do, then post the pictures weeks to remind them thir mosque has been stained.

#7 You can be certain there would be hell to pay if a militia group decided to build a monument to Timothy McVeigh near the Oklahoma City monument where the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building used to be. As Joe Biden would say: "It's a big f**king deal."

#9 Neutron bombing Mecca and building a Church there would have a similar level of cultural sensitivity.
