The 'Ground Zero Mosque' controversy centers on the planned construction of an Islamic Cultural Centre two blocks away from the location where the World Trade Center once stood. Though the plan is also opposed by some members of the families of 9/11 victims, a campaign has been waged mainly by right wing Republican and Israel lobby-afiliated neoconservative groups to inflame passions in a series of ads, articles and public pronouncements.
