>> How many blocks away would suit you??

Trump suggested at least five blocks more distance than the current plans. I think that would be totally sufficient to show that the intent is not to create a symbol, but instead, to practice freedom of religion.

>> And by your definition there is a mosque in the Pentagon....

And you are totally missing the point, which isn't surprising.

Michael Moore wants mosque ON Ground Zero - proving the offensiveness of the mosque at GZ is really important to anti-American leftists:

-----

(CNN) – Liberal filmmaker Michael Moore is weighing in on the proposed Islamic Community Center in New York City, stirring the the pot by saying he doesn’t want it to be built near Ground Zero but rather on Ground Zero.

“I want it built on Ground Zero.
Why? Because I believe in an America that protects those who are the victims of hate and prejudice,” Moore writes in an open letter on his website. “I believe in an America that says you have the right to worship whatever God you have, wherever you want to worship.

“And I believe in an America that says to the world that we are a loving and generous people and if a bunch of murderers steal your religion from you and use it as their excuse to kill 3,000 souls, then I want to help you get your religion back. And I want to put it at the spot where it was stolen from you,” he added.

The filmmaker is also urging his supporters to contribute money to help fund the controversial project and is pledging to match up to $10,000 in donations.

“C’mon everyone, let’s pitch in and help those who are being debased for simply wanting to do something good. We could all make a huge statement of love on this solemn day,” Moore writes.
