    Well, it's never really been about a mosque at ground zero - it's not a mosque and it's not at ground zero. At it's core, it's xenophobia. This is just the most recent incarnation.

      Facts are remarkably anti-American to some folks. I really thought the whole, 'Reality has a well-known liberal bias' thing was a joke, I'm starting to wonder these days. Another fun fact, Muslims existed before 9/11. I know people who don't realize that.

        It's a wonderful example of how little some people read into what the media tells them. An age of most of the world's information being readily available, some people don't bother to check it.

          I am waiting to find out just how the buildings came down so easilly. At the time I was shocked at how they just collapsed. An airplane is an insignificant thing to a building. Many buildings have been hit by planes, none to my knowledge have collapsed (Soon after 9 11 a plane in Italy hit a uilding, then there was the Dutch plane that crashed into a tower bock in Amsterdam years ago). And given the buildings were supposedly designed to withstand a plane crash. Well, its just very surprising that they came down so fast. I shudder to think that the US gov/big business had a hand in it, but I wouldnt put it past the Americans. Nothing is more important than profit to them.

                You mean the 747 that hit the tower block at low velocity with a 90 degree roll and created a 747-at-a-90-degree-roll sized hole in said tower block? That one? And I presume you mean the Pirelli building crash? The one with the SEL light aircraft that cratered a couple of floors? I mean that aircraft weighed > 3000lbs and could have hit at 170 knots, where as a 767 weighs > 500,000 lbs and could hit at over 500 knots. I mean, there's nothing (but the 2nd law of motion) between them.

                  Many people forget about building 7. The building was not hit by a plane, it just had a small fire in it and then suddenly free-fell perfectly without warning.

                      Islam is not a religion of peace. They will kill you deader than a hammer for drawing their prophet, or destroying their book. They have no tolerance for Jews or Christians, once they get the numbers like they have in the middle east, sharia law will be the supreme law of the land.

                              I rarely visit fox news, your basis for me being closed minded is your own bigotry and hatred towards a news agency that is owned by News Corp which owns about 100 other news papers around the world.

                                I saw the paper posted by Ravel, but I had heard something different. I had heard it was designed to withstand a 747 size impact (which that paper seems to suggest it wasn't). What I saw on the news afterwards was that it was designed properly, but not executed properly. The problem, as was reported, was with the insulation. Instead of using the insulation in the designs, it was constructed with spray-on insulation. The force of the impact caused a shockwave that literally blew all of the insulation off. This left the structural metal without any heat protection which lead to the weakening of the members and eventually the collapse of the building. But I'm sure there are other reports out there as to the cause of the collapse.

                                    How little you know about other religions... I'm jewish and let me tell you again, you're wrong, you just keep failing, you will look more intelligent if you just leave this thread and say nothing else

                                    I want to die like my grandfather- asleep, not like the passengers in his car, screaming!

                                      You are an ignorant Jew. Ignorant Jews get beheaded by islamisists and get loaded up in concentration camps.

                                          I saw the paper posted by Ravel, but I had heard something different. I had heard it was designed to withstand a 747 size impact (which that paper seems to suggest it wasn't). What I saw on the news afterwards was that it was designed properly, but not executed properly. The problem, as was reported, was with the insulation. Instead of using the insulation in the designs, it was constructed with spray-on insulation. The force of the impact caused a shockwave that literally blew all of the insulation off. This left the structural metal without any heat protection which lead to the weakening of the members and eventually the collapse of the building. But I'm sure there are other reports out there as to the cause of the collapse.

                                          Oh, hush. No-one wants the facts when they interfere with a good conspiracy fantasy. ;) :-D
