I brought up this scenerio in another thread but no one responded. I'd like to know what some of you think.
Does it not work in Americas favor to have the mosque built where they want it if it is proven later that it is being used to perpetuate fanatical anti American sentiment?
Then the people can say, "See, we were tolerant and let them build a mosque here and they used it for ill intentions so fuck you all, we're taking a wrecking ball to it and now the world can see that there was an ulterior motive for having it here." If that was really the case it would solidify the belief most anti Muslim groups have with others around the world that may not intially share that belief about the followers of Islam.
