Here's a good article on the background. The wife of the Imam who leads this project is a member of the advisory committee for the National September 11 Memorial and Museum.
These are Muslims building bridges. I imagine some of the same people against this project are the same people who ask where are the moderate Muslims speaking out against violence. Well, they're right in the thick of things.
Define enemy.
As I mentioned before, Freedom of Religion means just that, no religion can be banned. We do not have a law that offers freedom from religion, though some interpret it as so.
As Pogo once said, "We have met the enemy and he is us."From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An enemy is a person who hates or dislikes another person.

Im not sure where you get all this info but the kuran itself accepts the bible and encourages muslims to read and examine it,''You know, Muslims, who will stone any woman to death who dares to look at a man who is not her father or husband.''You should know by now not to believe everything u're told and with all due respect thats probably the stupidest thing i've ever heard and as a person who lives among countless muslims(im not one myself but still)i can asure you that ''killing all the jews and christians''are not their ultimate aim.In an attempt that surely will go down as the second most impertinent, disrespectful, cruel, insensitive and despicable attack on America, the Muslims want to erect a mosque near the place of their greatest achivement in history, near the site where they destroyed close to 3000 lives.
You know, Muslims, who forbid a Bible on any Muslim land. You know, Muslims, who will stone any woman to death who dares to look at a man who is not her father or husband. Muslims, whose greatest ambition is to kill all Jews and for good measure, all Christians. We are still waiting as to what their plans are about Buddhists, Mormons or any other "apostates".
Should they be allowed to build this mosque? If yes, WHY and if not WHY NOT?

So you agree then as per Miriam Webster that it's either a person or unit, a unit sugesting an organized body. That being the case, seeing that Muslims do not fall under one organized body, they cannot be the enemy, at least not in the singular sense. An individual terrorist can be the enemy as that's a person. Al-Qaeda can be the enemy as it's an organized unit with a paramilitary chain of command.
The Muslim community as a whole does not share any common organizational structure and thus cannot be a personal or unitary enemy.
I don't see how you can...?Yes they can. The Taliban is muslim. The taliban is organized, the taliban is the enemy.
Anyway I don't see how you can claim that the muslim community does not an possess an organized structure.
