Yes, I agree... If you have been looking at this as some kind of prejudice against Muslims, who we don't want worshiping Allah near ground zero, then you are correct, it's really weird. The thing is, this has NEVER been about prejudice toward Muslims or denying them any right to worship, any where! It has always been about the appropriateness of building what would amount to a "trophy of conquest" at that location. You don't understand that because you've failed to comprehend the problem from the start, opting to believe it is about prejudice and discrimination toward Muslims. I don't know what can be done to make you understand it better, maybe a nice 2x4 upside your noggin?

your ignorance of world religions through out the ages is marked by your lack of understanding of 'trophy of conquest' requirements - to be a 'trophy of conquest' the trophy needs to be built on top of the conquered religions place of worship - this has been done by religions for millennium

this to exalt the power of the conqueror's religion over the conquered's religion and to absorb the power of the previous religion
