Muslim Miss USA: Islamic center shouldn't be near Ground Zero
This is unconfirmed, but the entertainment show "Inside Edition" says it will air an interview today with Miss USA Rima Fakih, a Lebanon-born Muslim, who says she thinks it's a bad idea to build a Muslim center so close to Ground Zero.
Here's how the show characterizes the view of 24-year-old Fakih (who was raised in Michigan):
"I totally agree with President Obama with the statement on Constitutional rights of freedom of religion. I also agree that it shouldn't be so close to the World Trade Center. We should be more concerned with the tragedy than religion."
