is the freedom tower a minaret?

A minaret is a tower that is part of a mosque. It is usually much taller than the buildings near it and often has a point on it. The traditional use if for the call to prayer.

The freedom tower looks like a minaret and the top towers above all the buildings around it.

If its construction is completed, the faithful can rent office space in the tower, then they will install what is needed to make it a mosque.

They will be allowed to do this because they have freedom of religion, like anybody else does.

In the future when we view the Manhatten skyline from New Jersey the freedom tower will point out the empty space the martyrs made on 9/11.

This minaret will be a memorial to the hijackers who gave their lives to create that empty space and point out to America that they will pay a price for being an ally of Israel.

Of course that is only 1 interpretation of the visual statement the freedom tower makes, and may be totally different than the one that the architects intended to make, but you have got to admit that if you believe the freedom tower is a minaret it certainly looks like one.
