Great. More hate and discontent? What this world needs is more love! How can we teach what we have yet to master?
Forwarding chain-mail that contains inaccuracies only perpetuates the lies and fuels the fires of prejudice. Did you know they haven't even started construction yet, so how could they build a 5 story stucture in less than a month? Also, this mosque is not being built on Ground Zero. It's at an old Burlington Coat Factory site... five blocks away. Five NEW YORK blocks. I've been to New York to visit Ground Zero and five blocks is like half a mile!
Do you know that there are millions of Muslims that are as horrified at what happened to the World Trade Center as we are? They want desparately to heal the wounds these damned Jihadists caused, not only to us but to all of their people, too!
Heck, Americans have their wild dogs, also. When some Christian radical kills innocent people it is NOT the doing of the Christian religion, is it? Klan members believe they're doing God's work, but I don't know anybody that agrees with them!
Come on! Where has the compassion for our fellow man gone? Are we going to let the hate-mongers and talking heads do all of our thinking for us? Listen to your heart and ignore clenched fists and gritting teeth out there. The world is full of good people. Don't let a few bad apples dictate to you who or what any group is or isn't. Remember that their job is tied to money, which is dependent upon ratings, which rely on viewership, which means that they focus on (and sensationalize) the worst in our world in order to get your attention. Look into things for yourself. You've got the internet right here!
Speaking of which:

Love is the music of life;
Compassion is
its melody.
