Ground Zero Mosque

An interfaith religious community center that is to be located two blocks away from Ground Zero. Some people think that the location is insensitive because it is a house of worship for Muslims and extremist Muslims attacked us on 9-11-01. Almost everyone who supports it is UN-American because they believe in freedom of religion for Muslims that haven't the slightest connection with Al-Qaeda.
Hey Bob, do you believe that the Ground Zero Mosque should be built? Hell no, its a victory for the terrorists.

Ground Zero Mosque

Reference to controversial plan to build a Mosque and "community center" in New York City, near the site of Ground Zero. The controversy and outrage comes from the 9/11 terrorist attacks involving Muslims and the victims' families still in mourning. Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, the man behind the plan, is either extremely insensitive to the 9/11 victims or a truly obscene terrorist sympathizer!
Many people were rightfully appalled when the Ground Zero Mosque received approval from the NYC building commission! Whether intentional or not, the location of Rauf's planned Mosque is really a bad idea.

ground zero 

"The point directly above, below, or at which a nuclear explosion occurs" (Merriam-Webster). Recently thanks to a load of rhetoric from our idiot newscasters, the meaning has been horribly trivialized.

Hiroshima (80,000 deaths from the explosion + additional 60,000 deaths from radiation poisoning) is a "ground zero". Nagasaki (120,000 deaths total) is a "ground zero". The World Trade Center (2749 deaths) is NOT a "ground zero". So stop calling it that.

SMART GUY: Really? Your uncle went to Japan?
IDIOT: wtf is a Japan?

Ground Zero 

A state of being wherein you feel as if you cannot sink any lower emotionally, psychologically, or physically.

Hitting rock bottom.

The absolute lowest possible point or level. The place a person in denial must reach before he finally is ready to admit that he has a problem and reaches out for help

....but hey, when you cant get any lower, the only way to go is up.

ground zero 

The epicenter of a disaster or explosion.

Currently, the term is most commonly used in reference to the location of the World Trade Center after the September 11th attacks.
It took much less time than expected to clear the debris from ground zero.

Ground Zero Mosque

It is a little known fact that the Twin Towers each had their own Mosque inside that were destroyed in the 9/11 attacks, it would be appropriate to refer to either of these as a "Ground Zero Mosque"
The destruction of the Ground Zero Mosques would seem to suggest that the 9/11 terrorists were not real Muslims, but were in fact enemies of Islam.
