Their current cultural center is 12 blocks away. I agree, it is a local issue. If the broad majority of new yorkers are against it, then why did the local board vote in its favor?
Also, I didn't say it was an attempt of solidarity on their part. I said IF it gets built, its solidarity on America's part of religious tolerance- one of the founding missions of this country. Personally, I don't care if it gets built or not, it doesn't affect me one way or another. If they want to put up a zoning restriction banning all religious buildings in that area- fuck it! But if you ban just a certain religion from building, it won't hold up in court and what will be the point?
