10. "They KNEW they were building a mosque next to a sacred site..."

"I say, let'em move!"

2. WaPo says NOT A MOSQUE expects 2000 worshippers every Friday.

Which would seem to make it a mosque. WHICH IT IS LEGALLY ALLOWED TO BE.

St. Patrick's has a seating capacity of about 2400, also legal.

I don't know why people who insist that it can be whatever it wants to be are so insistent on saying it's NOT A MOSQUE.
