How do you feel about the new Mosque location?
“ I think it’s a great idea. If people weren’t too ignorant, they should know that park 51 (The Islamic Cultural Center) has a memorial place for those whose lives were lost on 911. Muslims are people who care for others. You can’t blame an entire religion based on a few really stupid and misguided people.”

Do you believe that placing the Mosque near the Tower is a drastic move or is it a good idea?
“Yes I believe that Arab people should be allowed to worship in the new Mosque. They need to understand that Americans such as myself have nothing against their culture. All our anger is among the individuals who attacked the Towers and killed so many people.”
