information about Ground Zero Mosque?

[Lenny]

"America Deserved 9/11" is not actually what he said. Actually, he said the opposite:
"I wouldn’t say that the United States deserved what happened..."

He then went on state that American actions had created the motivation for the attacks:
"...but the United States policies were an accessory to the crime that happened."

The suggestion that "Osama is made in the USA" is presumably a reference to the fact that we actually armed and trained Bin Laden, to fight against the Soviets during the could war. Our actions (and those of other countries) in the middle east over the past several decades undoubtedly play a role in the emergence of radical Islam and its violent opposition to western nations. So what the Imam is saying is that Americans effectively created Bin Laden as an enemy figurehead - he is a product of our country, or "Made in the USA".

The Palin twitter post was basically a statement that the Mosque idea is hurtful to the family members of 9/11 victims, and a plea to the Muslims involved to abandon or relocate the project. This is basically the most tactful way that anybody came out against the thing, so it's unclear to me why it should have been controversial.

"Refudiate" is not a word. Its something we've all been making fun of Palin for saying, when she probably meant to say "refute".
[Edit: having bothered to look for sources, I now realize that this was in fact the same twitter post that you were quoting. That would be the reason for the controversy, I guess. A different source I found had apparently been edited so as to employ actual words.]

Y!A doesn't support drawings. Then again I'm not a Muslim, and have no clue what drawings might be involved in a counter argument anyway. Unless you are thinking about a map showing where the site is in relation to Ground Zero, or possibly what the proposed building would look like.

I don't know why she picked this topic either. As a previous question brought to light, it's a terrible issue to demonstrate the distinction between logical and emotional reasoning.
