This is basically a financial district without any real Muslim population.

You say there isn't a Muslim population there, yet this group and other Muslim groups have been in that neighborhood since before the WTC was built, for 40-50 years.

This group has been at the exact location in question since last year. Why should these Americans be kicked out of their private property now? Why are their fellow Americans turning against them now?

Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf made many of feelings known in the 60 Minutes show, and he supports a strict Muslim law going against our constitutional way of life.

Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf trained our FBI on counterterrorism tactics, and is currently on a USA-government-sponsored tour of the middle east trying to - sigh - show how tolerant Americans are of Muslims. Rauf is also executive director of the American Society for Muslim Advancement, and sits on the advisory panel of the 9/11 memorial and museum.
