September 11 terrorists attack were series of suicidal attack by terrorists Al-Qaeda to United States of America people on September 11, 2001. At that morning, 19 terrorists Al-Qaeda hijacked four commercial passengers jet airliners and intended to crash the planes to vital building of United States of America such as World Trade Center, Pentagon and Capitol Building. The attack to the Twin Towers, World Trade Center was able to hijacked the 2 commercial passenger jet airlines to destroy the buildings and killed instantly 2752 innocent people alive by terrorists. The attack to the Pentagon, Defense Ministry of United States was able to hijacked one commercial passenger jet airline to destroy part of Pentagon and killed instantly 184 innocent people alive. The attack to Capitol Building failed because the plane crashed and killed instantly 40 innocent people alive. The died victims weeks after the attack are 6000+ innocent people. Weeks after the attack, the estimated death toll was over 6000 people.

At first the terrorists were planning to destroy the nuclear power plans of United States of America rather than World Trade Center, Pentagon and Washington DC but they weren’t attack the nuclear power plans at 9/11 attack because they fear they would be of control. Police was able too detonated a car bomb at the US State Department,Washington DC.

The reports from phone callers said that knives were used by hijackers to stab the cabin crews at the commercial passenger jet airlines.

More than 90 countries lost citizens in the 9/11 terrorists attack. A total of 411 emergency workers who responded to the scene died as they attempted to rescue people and fight fires. Next, the terrorists were indicated as radical moslems.

And now, just less than 9 years after the spectacular terrorists attack Obama plan to build mosque near the ex World Trade Center twin towers at New York, United States of America. This plan is a suicidal plan that hurts the feeling of relatives of dead victims in the massive terrorists attack. This plan also will damage the solidarity of American people to live freely against any intimidation or terrorism for the American people.

I think Obama have to decline the plan to build Mosque at that place.

Because The 9/11 Terrorists Attack is worse than The 7/12 1941 Pearl Harbor attack.

Protesters descend on Ground Zero for anti-mosque demonstration

A proposed mosque near Ground Zero has gotten mixed reviews from families and friends of 9/11 victims.

STORY HIGHLIGHTS
  • NEW: Protest at Ground Zero gathers opponents of mosque building
  • Protest leader says “We’re asking them not to.”
  • Mosque is to be built near site of destroyed twin towers
  • Plans call for mosque, performance art center and other public spaces

New York (CNN) — Protesters gathered in lower Manhattan mid-day Sunday to demonstrate against plans to build a mosque near the site of Ground Zero, where the twin towers of the World Trade Center were destroyed by Islamist hijackers on September 11, 2001.

Protest organizer Pamela Geller, a conservative blogger, and her group, “Stop the Islamicization of America,” planned the event because, according to the group’s website, “Building the Ground Zero mosque is not an issue of religious freedom, but of resisting an effort to insult the victims of 9/11 and to establish a beachhead for political Islam and Islamic supremacism in New York… Ground Zero is a war memorial, a burial ground. Respect it.”

Geller said the NYPD and security at the rally told her about 5,000 demonstrators were there. But NYPD spokesman Sgt. Kevin Hayes said the police department’s policy is to not provide crowd estimates and that he could not confirm Geller’s number.

CNN iReporter Julio Ortiz-Teissonniere, who attended the rally and sent photos to CNN, said the number was closer to 200-300 while he was there for the first 45 minutes of the event. All three said the protest was peaceful.

Human rights advocates, politicians and families of 9/11 victims addressed the crowd. Both Geller and Ortiz-Teissonniere said those family members elicited a powerful, emotional response from the protesters.

Geller recently told CNN’s Joy Behar that no one’s telling the mosque’s planners they can’t build it, but “We’re asking them not to.”

“We feel it would be more appropriate maybe to build a center dedicated to expunging the Quranic texts of the violent ideology that inspired jihad, or perhaps a center to the victims of hundreds of millions of years of jihadi wars, land enslavements, cultural annihilations and mass slaughter,” Geller said.

The project calls for a 13-story community center including a mosque, performing art center, gym, swimming pool and other public spaces.

It is a collaboration between the American Society for Muslim Advancement and the Cordoba Initiative.

The Cordoba Initiative aims to improve relations between Muslims and the West.

“The Cordoba Initiative hopes to build a $100 million, 13-story community center with Islamic, interfaith and secular programming, similar to the 92nd Street Y,” its website says, referring to the cultural institution on the upper East side of Manhattan.

Daisy Khan of the American Society for Muslim Advancement told CNN it was a “community center with a prayer space inside.”

She said the project was an opportunity for American Muslims living in New York to “give back” to the community.

“There is a lot of ignorance about who Muslims are. A center like this will be dedicated to removing that ignorance and it will also counter the extremists because moderate Muslims need a voice,” she told CNN. “Their voices need to be amplified.”

Local political leaders turned out in support of the community last month after Mark Williams of the conservative Tea Party Express reportedly said the mosque was for “the worship of the terrorists’ monkey-god.”

“To make room for peace there can be no room for hatred, bigotry or prejudice,” City Councilman Robert Jackson said at the May 20 demonstration.

The project has the backing of the Community Board of lower Manhattan. It does not require city permission to go ahead.

The plan has split people touched by the September 11 attacks.

“Lower Manhattan should be made into a shrine for the people who died there,” said Michael Valentin, a retired city detective who worked at ground zero. “It breaks my heart for the families who have to put up with this. I understand they’re [building] it in a respectful way, but it just shouldn’t be down there.”

Others such as Barry Zelman said the site’s location will be a painful reminder.

“(The 9/11 terrorists) did this in the name of Islam,” Zelman said. “It’s a sacred ground where these people died, where my brother was murdered, and to be in the shadows of that religion, it’s just hypocritical and sacrilegious. “

But Marvin Bethea, who was a paramedic at ground zero, said it was “the right thing to do.”

“I lost 16 friends down there. But Muslims also got killed on 9/11. It would be a good sign of faith that we’re not condemning all Muslims and that the Muslims who did this happened to be extremists,” he said. “As a black man, I know what it’s like to be discriminated against when you haven’t done anything.”

CNN’s Nicole Bliman, Richard Greene and Mark Morgenstein contributed to this report.

Masjid Diprotes Warga New York
Selasa, 18 Mei 2010 | 04:24 WIB
Telegraph
Ground Zero merupakan sebutan untuk lokasi bekas menara kembar yang runtuh ditabrak dua pesawat teroris dalam serangan 11 September 2001.

NEW YORK, KOMPAS.com — Sebuah rencana ambisius untuk membangun sebuah masjid di dekat Ground Zero di New York telah membuat marah warga kota itu. Ground Zero merupakan sebutan untuk lokasi bekas menara kembar yang runtuh ditabrak dua pesawat teroris dalam serangan 11 September 2001.

Para pendukung proyek itu mengatakan, rencana pembangunan pusat Islam yang berupa gedung bertingkat tersebut akan mengubah citra jalan Manhattan dan cara orang Amerika berinteraksi dengan umat Islam, sejak hampir 3.000 orang tewas dalam serangan pada 11 September itu. Telegraph, Senin (17/5/2010), melaporkan, masjid itu akan dilengkapi dengan fasilitas olahraga, teater, dan tempat penitipan anak, serta terbuka bagi semua pengunjung demi menunjukkan bahwa umat Islam merupakan bagian dari komunitas Amerika, bukan merupakan elemen masyarakat yang  terpisah.

Namun, karena lokasi masjid yang diusulkan tersebut hanya sejengkal dari lubang menganga Ground Zero, rencana itu kontan bikin marah sejumlah warga lokal. “Kemarahan berlanjut,” tulis situs web www.nomosquesatgroundzero.wordpress.com dengan gambar close-up retuntuhan Twin Towers.

Dalam situs itu dikatakan, keberadaan pusat Islam itu akan “memberi bayangan tidak sopan atas Ground Zero”. Yang lain membandingkan ide itu dengan membangun sebuah pusat budaya Jerman di Auschwitz. “(Itu sama dengan) meludahi wajah setiap orang yang tewas pada 9/11,” tulisBlitz, yang mendeskripsikan dirinya sebagai harian antijihad.

Tingkat kemarahan itu tidak biasa di antara warga New York yang menyalahkan Islam ketimbang hanya Al Qaeda atau kelompok militan lain atas peristiwa 9/11 dan konfrontasi global terhadap Amerika Serikat. “Ini merupakan lingkungan yang salah untuk membangun masjid,” kata Scott Rachelson (59) saat ia pergi ke kantornya. Rachelson, yang bekerja dengan orang-orang yang mencari kompensasi terkait kerusakan atas serangan 9/11, mengatakan, hidupnya berubah selamanya sejak hari ketika dua pesawat yang dibajak menabrak Manhattan.

“Saya di sini. Bagi saya, dan semua orang yang ada di sini, kami mengalami gangguan stres pascatrauma,” katanya. “Rasanya seperti baru saja kemarin.”

Seorang wanita yang tinggal di apartemen di sebelah rencana lokasi masjid itu mengatakan, dia tidak bisa menerima proyek tersebut. “Saya berbohong jika saya mengatakan itu tidak membuat saya sedikit gugup,” kata Jennifer Wood (36) saat ia membawa anaknya berjalan-jalan.
