For centuries, whenever any Islamic regime or cabal achieves some kind of holy victory, a mosque is built at the site of battle. In 705, muslim rulers built the Agsa Mosque at the top of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem after their campaign of aggressive acts. When the muslims seized Hebron in 637, they desecrated the Cave of the Patriarchs before redesigning it into the Ibrahim Mosque. Examples of this practice extend across history. (http://www.americanthinker.com/2009/04/civilization_and_mosques.html).
Now, this is not to say that all that support the construction of the mosque are coming from an insidious place. Most supporters of the mosque are coming from a place of tolerance, unity and peace. The very values that serve as the bedrock of what make America the greatest land on Earth. It can be agreed upon by all rational sides of the debate that the construction of the mosque is, for all intents and purposes, 100% constitutional and should not be undermined by the government in any way, shape or form. Fortunately for the sound-minded, regardless of where they stand on this issue, these aforementioned realities are the very reason why there is a perfect solution that will advance the American value system while spitting in the face of Islamo-fascists around the world.
As of today, I will seek out ways to pursue the petitioning and funding for the construction of an Interfaith plaza to be located in lower Manhattan, specifically to be built around the new construction site for the new Islamic Interfaith cultural center. This plaza will consist of a synagogue located across from the mosque, a Judeo-Christian Church of any denomination adjacent to it on the west, and a Buddhist temple adjacent to it on the east. The name for this plaza will be named Interfaith Square.
If 9/11 taught us anything as a nation, it is how easily religious intolerance can erupt into violence and hate inflicted upon a group of innocent people. It is my belief that a truly Interfaith center would pay homage to the memory of the thousands that lost their lives that day with honor and dignity while demonstrating our calcified commitment to peace and religious tolerance. Let us send a message to those that wish to create division, regardless of the name of their God, that we as a people are bound by an unshakeable bond to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. May (Whoever You Worship) Bless America.
