It is not a mosque and it is not located at Ground Zero, so the term "Ground Zero mosque" is entirely inaccurate. The Park51 project (so named because of its address, 41-51 Park Place, which is two blocks away from Ground Zero) is a Muslim community center. Not a mosque. It will have a prayer space -- again, not a mosque -- which welcome those of all faiths. The Park51 project has not been cancelled. Groundbreaking is scheduled to begin in late 2011.

Obama is not building a mosque anywhere. In fact, the so-called mosque is not a mosque at all, but an Islamic cultural center. The center is being built by a Muslim imam named Feisal Abdul Rauf, and his congregation and some real estate developers. Obama has nothing to do with any of it. They are building the mosque two blocks from Ground Zero because that is just where they happened to find space for it.
