Despite what the Associated Press and the politically correct say, I agree with Iman Feisal Abdul Rauf in calling the Cordoba House (oh, excuse me, Park51) the Ground Zero Mosque. It is insane to consider the former site of the Burlington Coat Factory anything but Ground Zero.
The term Ground Zero does not just denote the footprints of the late World Trade Center; scores of blocks were covered by human ash, making a large area of Manhattan a virtual graveyard. But since pictures (and video) speak more than words, here are some 9/11/01 images of the neighborhood that we are not allowed to call Ground Zero anymore.
I must really thank many of the wacky “Truther” conspiracy websites where I found most of these photos, through a simple Google Image search, that so-called reporters or mosque proponents would prefer you didn’t see. If you’re not familiar with lower Manhattan here’s a Google Map for you to follow along and see how close theses scenes were to an address that may live in infamy, 51 Park Place.
This is West Broadway between Barclay and Park Place:

Gosh, what’s that sign on the top left (above)? Could it say Burlington Coat Factory? The proposed site of the home of the future GZM is littered with debris… and that dust coating everything? How much of it is composed of pulverized human remains?
Above is a jet engine found a block north of the planned institute dedicated to “improving Muslim-West relations.”

This video sure depicts a neighborhood in the middle of a war zone. Thanks to the nutjobs at http://wtcdemolition.com we know where this took place. Murray Street. A block north of Park Place. But according to those who know better this is not part of Ground Zero.
This IS Ground Zero.
If the MSM doesn’t want to call it GZM how about calling it what it will be known as in the Middle East? The Victory Mosque.
