Strangely though just because a subversive Christian group were terrorising the country we didn't prevent anyone from building Christian churches .... terrorists might hide partially behind a religion but its power and influence they're interested in, don't tar all believers of whatever relgion it is just because of a few idiots.

When they start blarring their "Call to Prayers" out across the WTC memorial everyday, they will be doing a much better job of equating Islam to 911 than folks on this message board could ever do. I would say that the damage they will do to the image of their religion is a valid argument for not building it.
