Muslim leaders to abandon plans for Ground Zero community center (http://www.haaretz.com/news/international/muslim-leaders-to-abandon-plans-for-ground-zero-community-center-1.308426 - broken link)


Insiders say Muslim spiritual leaders behind the controversial initiative are considering giving up on the former World Trade Center location, in a gesture of appeasement.

I certainly hope they don't bow down to the ridiculous tide of bigotry in this country. I am incredibly upset and hope they stand their ground.

Great. Now we are going to get another terrorist attack or Allah will lash down on us because we didn't let them build their little Mosque there.

Thanks a lot, you guys. Appeasement, my ass. They have another treat up their sleeves.

Of course they would be... just like adults sometimes have to deal with a bunch of whiny kids.

I'd like to see this in a non Israeli paper. Any confirmation via an outside source?

Amazing, if the Park51 developers indeed revise their plans for no other reason than to end the controversy, just as the critics have wanted, instead of saying thank you and being on your way, you use the concession to heap more dirt. UFB!
