September 11th 2001 vs September 11th 2010 - 9 Years Later: Pastor Terry Jones, Planned Protests Of Mosque Near Ground Zero

September 11, 2010 should be a time for reflection, instead it may will be a day of rage and resentment.

On September 11, 2001, almost 3000 lives were snuffed out by a calculated acts of awful viscousness.

On September 11, 2010 hundreds of protesters will convene near the Ground Zero memorial. Police will deploy a small army to keep the anti-mosque and pro-mosque demonstrators from clashing.

On the day after September 11, 2001 President George Bush forcefully declared that America was NOT at war with Islam.

On the day before September 11, 2010 President Barack Obama said that one of the things he most admires about President Bush was his courage to say those words and unite the country.

Six months after September 11 2001 New Yorkers witnessed the subtle and spectacular Tribute In Light, which illuminated the city's skyline every night for a month.

In the months after September 11, 2010 the debate over the Mosque near Ground Zero will continue, and Pastor Terry Jones may or may not hold his Quran Burning event.

In the days after September 11, 2001 the United States invaded Afghanistan hoping to capture Osama Bin Laden, "Dead or Alive."

On the 9th anniversary of September 11, 2010 the United States is still in Afghanistan and Bin Laden is still on the loose.

Have you ever been in love with someone who you were wrong for, and when you realized it, you let them go, though it broke your heart? You decided to care more about their welfare, their heart, their future, rather than insist on keeping them?Rauf and Islam needs to do that with their precious mosque. If they want to display the tolerance that Americans are being accused of being short of, then they would behold the pain and anguish their location, and subsequent inflammatory defense of it, and they would readily put down their stubborn will and make other arrangements.Because if he is allowed to put that monument to his eqo and Islamic triumphalism right next to the 3000 graves, then the message is loud and clear: terrorism works.

All the paragraph breaks in my just previously posted comment were thrown away. This being the first time I've commented here, I didn't know that would happen. Sorry for the Block O'Text formatting--see the comment administrator.
