Idealism vs Reality

I've written this before and I'm going to write this again.

Not long after the 9/11 attacks, a video by bin Laden was released
where he stated the United States has "too much freedom" and they will
use these "freedoms" against us. This was evident with the creation of
TSA and all of the insane checks people have to go through to fly. It
was also evident with the creation of The Patriot Act. The latest
example is the mosque controversy in New York.

Without a doubt, it is legal for a mosque to go at that location. From
what I've read, there are no building regulations restricting the
mosque. The U.S. was founded on freedom on religion so there are not
Constitution issues involved. However, what is allowable is not always
right.

I am firmly in the camp that suspects this mosque is a marker of
triumph for the Islamic attackers, especially since the funding source
is suspect. I am firmly of the belief that this is an intentional
thumb in the eye. I am firmly in the camp that KNOWS -- not believes,
KNOWS -- the mosque should not be at that location.

I suspect more terrorist plannings will happen at that mosque.

I know I'm right.
