Muslims terrorists destroy the World Trade Center and kill thousands of innocent people, mostly non-Muslims. The idiotic American government responds by taking years to build absolutely nothing as a memorial. And now Muslims build a 13-story mosque near Ground Zero. What a great visual, huh?

A proposal to build a mosque steps from Ground Zero received the support of a downtown committee despite some loved ones of 9/11 victims finding it offensive.

The 13-story mosque and Islamic cultural center was unanimously endorsed by the 12-member Community Board 1′s financial district committee.

The $100 million project, called the Cordoba House, is proposed for the old Burlington Coat Factory building at Park Place and Broadway, just two blocks from the World Trade Center site.

“I think it will be a wonderful asset to the community,” said committee Chairman Ro Sheffe.

Imam Feisel Abdul Rauf, who helped found the Cordoba Initiative following the 9/11 attacks, said the project is intended to foster better relations between the West and Muslims.

He said the glass-and-steel building would include a 500-seat performing arts venue, a swimming pool and a basketball court. “There’s nothing like it,” said Rauf, adding that facilities will be open to all New Yorkers.

Daisy Khan, executive director of the Cordoba Initiative, said donations from prestigious groups such as the Ford Foundation and the Rockefeller Brothers Fund would pay for the construction.

Khan said the project has received little opposition.

So, $100 million from politically correct infidels to build a massive mosque in the same area where Muslim terrorists brutally murdered thousands of Americans. This way every time relatives come to mourn those lost thanks to Muslim terrorists, they can walk past the massive Muslim house of worship that went up next door. Fan-fucking-tastic.
