The prospect of building a Mosque near Ground Zero in New York City has prompted protestors from all over US to voice their opposition disregarding all reason and demonstrating Islamophobic tendencies

 
Although not legally binding, the plan for the construction of the mosque was agreed upon in May by a New York City community however demonstrators were hoping the decision would be revoked  
 
Organizers alleged that Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf who was behind the mosque construction was not the man of peace he claimed to be. They questioned the funding of the mosque stressing their anger at the decision describing it as an insult to have it constructed close to their loved ones graves who dies during the twin tower attacks
 
Many of the protestors included Russian Jews, Arab Christians and Indians who stressed their love for the so-called American freedom
 
Mosque supporters however hope the construction of the Mosque may bring something good out of 9-11 and restore tolerance for Islam
