While the RW is getting its knickers in a wad over the building of a Islamic center near Ground Zero on the basis that those who died on 9/11 have made this holy ground...and, I guess, for a two-block radius around where the WTC once stood...the fact that innocent Muslims were ALSO killed on that day is being totally ignored.
According to one count over 60 Muslims died as a result of the 09/11 attack. But, evidently, in the RW mind those deaths do not count. Their death does not make Ground Zero hallowed ground, because, if they did, what would be the grounds for the uproar over the Islamic Center? Would anyone give it a second thought if a Jewish or Catholic community center was built where the Islamic center is planned?
So...I am led to the conviction that this issue has nothing to do with real estate -- who builds what where -- but with the value of a human life and it seems that the right wing, the former party of family values, has decided that the life of an AMERICAN MUSLIMS and, by extension Muslim families, have no value.
If that is not sedition, will someone please explain it to me.
