Like I stated before in my quote on the Quran. Islam is a religion that preaches peace, not one that harbours extremists and radicals. Can you please show me a source where a mosque has harboured terrorists in New York. I have never seen that happen before. Also we are not talking about what the Turkish are doing, we are talking about the community center in New York. We wouldn't want to infringe on the sovereignty of Turkey, we are talking about America.
This poll was taken by our fellow students/teachers of DAA and their opinions are valued. Some of them in-fact were American, and believe the mosque should be built. Everyone's opinion should be valued, not just some...
(this argument is not a clarification it's a dispute, that was a miss click)
Park51 calls back to the democracy, where people in the First Amendment are allowed by any cause to practice their religion freely, peacefully, and safely. It is the muslim communities right to build a mosque wherever they please. Islam is all about peace as stated in this verse. Many people believe that the mosque should be built such as Obama and Michael Bloomberg. The building is not just going to be a mosque, it is a community center that accepts other faiths to bring people together. The community center also has a 9/11 memorial, and the muslim community as a whole denounces the attacks and claims them ‘unislamic.’
“It is not righteousness that you turn your faces to the East or the West, but truly righteous is he who believes in Allah and the Last Day and the angels and the Book and the Prophets, and spends his money for love of Him, on the kindred and the orphans and the needy and the wayfarer and those who ask for charity, and for ransoming the captives; and who observes Prayer and pays the Zakat; and those who fulfill their promise when they have made one, and the patient in poverty and afflictions and the steadfast in time of war; it is these who have proved truthful and it is these who are the God-fearing.” (Al Quran 2:178)

A survey was taken asking the students (students were of mixed races/ethnicities) in Dubai American Academy if the students believe a community consisting of a mosque should be built two blocks away from the 9/11 attack site. From the final results, the data collected states that 80% of the students believe that muslims should have the right to build a community two blocks away from the 9/11 site and 30% believe otherwise.
