I was talking in general about the position thats been debated about the connection between the 9/11 extremists being the posterboys for islam.

Should there be a mosque there? I don't really like it. If I had my choice, no. But where then does the line get drawn? 10 blocks? 1 mile? 5 miles??? There is no clear answer.

On the other hand there are those that see everything Muslim as bad. I disagree with that point of view as well.

There are those who see all of Islam as bad. I disagree with this too.

There are those who claim that "they" are treating this like a dog marking its territory. Spain is used to support this position. If thats the case ... well I won't go there.
Still others say they are using our laws and freedoms against us and this is a grand conspiracy... uh ok.

If, and its a big if, this mosque is part of or funded by those who perpetrated the 9/11 attack, then I think there should be a clear link drawn and the project refused. I have, as of yet, not seen that link.
