The '''Ground Zero Mosque''' (officially '''Park51''' and formerly the '''Cordoba House''') is a proposed [[Muslim]] house of worship a very short distance away from the former [[World Trade Center]] which was destroyed by Muslims on [[9/11]], killing thousands of Christians. Most Americans (except some [[liberals]]) are against the construction of this monstrosity, rightly seeing it as an insult to those who died in the terrorist attacks. [[President Obama]] supports its construction, siding with Muslims over Christians, as usual.
