1.Whats being discussed in this article is an issue of building a Islamic Mosque near ground zero. There is however an even broader topic or issue being discussed which is the Americans view on the Islamic religion and the Islamic people. It is a clash of religions and countries essentially because they discuss the treatment of Muslims by the Americans by not allowing a Islamic Mosque to be built at ground zero because some believe that Islam was responsible for what happened on 9/11. However some American, European as well as Islamic leaders believe that nothing other than a memorial center should be built there, and think its especially weird to have a religious mosque or any type of religious building be built there. It discusses the process the American Muslims will have to take in order to get a Mosque built at ground zero saying that they might win in court but they will lose in the court of public opinion.
2.This is a not breaking news exactly but it is a current event that is being debated. Its a new topic that has had a lot of different opinions and debates around it lately. However it brings up an older debate that has been discussed since the 9/11 attack. That is the relationship between America and the middle east and the Americans view on Islamic religion as well as the Muslim peoples view on America and their religion.
3.I need to know more about the actual process that was take to try and get a Islamic Mosque built at ground zero. Also different opinions and reason for wanting the Mosque built at Ground zero. Also if I know more about what the Mosque will actually be because there are a lot of different opinions about the mosque actually being an Islamic community and cultural center.
