NY Gov. to discuss relocating Muslim center
 [Al Arabiya Latest] New York Governor David Paterson plans to discuss relocating a proposed Muslim cultural center and mosque to a less emotionally charged location farther from New York City's "Ground Zero" site of the Sept. 11 attacks.How about Bolivia? How about Islamabad? "We are working with the developers," Paterson's spokeswoman Maggie McKeon said. "There have not been any formal discussions between the governor, the imam or the developer. However, we expect to have a meeting scheduled in the near future." U.S. Representative Peter King of New York said he discussed the issue with Paterson on Tuesday and the governor told him he would meet this week with Muslim officials to discuss providing state funds to help the center find another location. How about if they sell their expensive downtown Noo Yawk property and move someplace where their money'll go further, like Bangladesh? Posted by: Fred 2010-08-18 |
