Closing Statement

The Islamic Community Center, which is known as Park 51, is a place for a memorial, not for a sign of victory. It is a right for everyone, including Muslims, to have freedom of religion. The construction should be allowed in order for the U.S. to keep what they are there for, which is freedom.

According to this website, there are two strip clubs in three blocks. It is disrespectful for those who were murdered in 9/11 attack. If the right of these inappropriate places are preserved, then why not for the Islamic Community Center where people visit for memorial?

Stopping the construction can cause the extremists to go against America thinking that the country is anti-Islam. That will bring risks of terror to all the citizens in the U.S.

According to these websites, there were quite a few of Muslim victims (About 60) in the 9/11 Attack. These Muslims are victims as well, and their families should be able to do tributes. Their right cannot be taken away even though the number is small compared to the total number of victims.

According to this news article, Park 51 isn't a mosque, but a Islamic community center. The center is public, which means it is open to everyone. Where did you get the information saying that Park 51 is a mosque?

“And if they incline to peace, then incline to it [also] and rely upon Allah . Indeed, it is He who is the Hearing, the Knowing. But if they intend to deceive you - then sufficient for you is Allah . It is He who supported you with His help and with the believers” (8:61-62)

“And if any one of the polytheists seeks your protection, then grant him protection so that he may hear the words of Allah . Then deliver him to his place of safety. That is because they are a people who do not know.” (9:6)

All of these verses in the Quran, tell Muslims how to act, not to be bad. Try to be peaceful. The religion of Islam does not like violence, but says it’s ok in cases in self defence. The men who committed the 9/11 bombings were not committing acts of Islam, but in fact the opposite, they were opposing everything the Quran stands for. Also, the First Amendment gives us the freedom of speech, and the right to freedom of religion. Taking away the right for Muslims to build this city center. would be very insulting, and will ruin the base of what America stands and what the founding fathers fought for.
