There is already a mosque two blocks from the proposed site but it is very small and cannot accommodate the Muslim community it serves.
If an organized group claiming affiliation with a certain religion went into a country and killed thousands of its citizens who had done nothing wrong, and then the religion built a center very near the site of the attack, the appearance or impression is that the religion has built a monument to its victory, and is gloating and demonstrating the ignorance of the country's citizens. It is hard to avoid the impression, given that the original name of the center was Cordoba House, a catch-phrase among Muslims symbolizing pride in conquest and occupation. The name has since been changed following public outcry. See discussion for more.

∙ 12y agoThe planned Islamic community centre will be two blocks from 'Ground Zero', further from the site than one already existing nearby. As to why in that part of the city: because it is the people in that part of the city who want it built, and that happens to be the site they have obtained for building the centre on.
