Yup.

Matthew 5:44: But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

Even the name that was originally proposed for the center (Cordoba) carried that implication.

That is not entirely true. There are mosques across the nation that local citizens are protesting against. It is not just this cultural center, people are getting riled up from the fear-mongers and are trying to find a terrorist behind every Muslim. This is not just about the location. It is about religion.

Michael Bloomberg said it best the other night. He said that this would go away after election season, since it was just a ploy by politicians to get extra votes.

I tend to agree with him. You will be hard pressed to find this kind of outrage once the politicians stop beating this dead horse come after November.

So the building was damaged by the Muslim terrorist attack, but since the building didn't fall, it is NOT part of the 9/11 attack? The Pentagon is still vertical also.

This is for a Muslim Victory dance. It is to boast about results of the attack. Notice how they put on a face?
