[quote=LARRYBOY,406327]Here is an example,,and this applies to everyone in every country and culture. Lets not make this just an "American" and a "Muslim" issue,,OK?? Now stay with me here everyone,,and leave your tears and feelings outside the door. This can happen anywhere in the world and it does not have to be religious, but lets say for an example,,a loved one passes away or is killed by accident or on purpose. You want to keep that persons memory alive because what happened was so sudden!! Some businessmen are looking to build a "nightclub" a hotel and casino,,because THEY WANT THAT LAND that your loved one is buried on!! Opponents said "Go build it next to your nations capital" the business men say " OH no!! we cant build it there, thats our nations capital,, we want you use your cemetery instead!" 
 So now through financial strength, and political ties, the lowly people whos vote counts in elections does not count in this situation. The night club/ Hotel and casino is built on the cemetery land,, the bodies are excavated and moved someplace else,, and the locals now have all kinds of people walking all around their homes from the newly "MUCH NEEDED" establishments that will only feed the pockets of the politicians and the businessmen,,and a lie that it will generate so much revenue and lower taxes...........Hmmm imagine that!! Lower taxes!!  The homeowners in the area of the this 3 establishment enterprise,,their property taxes go up because like being near a vacation hotspot,, they are forced to move and sell their house,,OR an insulting offer is made for the homeowners to move or risk having their home taken through eminent domain!!  
 Is not really an easy situation when there are alot of people involved,, especially when there is money to be made, by powerful people. So Who suffers? 
 I myself am not against a mosque being built but Im sure a Night club / casino and a motel would not get approved for construction or last long for that matter "Right next to"  within 100 meters of the Grand Mosque in Saudi Arabia.  
 There are just some things people need to research first and not rush into something because they want to exercise their rights.
