The mosque will be run by a separate non-profit whose Board of Directors will reflect a broad range of experience. While the mosque will be located in the planned final structure of Park51, it will be a distinct non-profit. Neither Park51 nor the mosque, which hasn't been named yet, will tolerate any kind of illegal or un-American activity and rhetoric.

It's an interesting interview, although Sharif el-Gamal seems to hedge his answers sometimes. (Just as it's true that "pols are pols", it shouldn't be surprising that Property Developers are Property Developers.)  

Bloomberg said the funding of the Islamic and community center near Ground Zero is none of the government's business.

"People say, `Well do they have the money? Can they raise the money? Where does it come from?'" Bloomberg said.
"I don't know. And government shouldn't -- do you really want every time they pass the basket in your church and you throw a buck in, they run over and say, `Okay, now where to do you come from, who are your parents, where did you get this money?' No."

"People ought to be ashamed of themselves," Bloomberg added.

Bloomberg also criticized the religious people who are speaking out against the project.
"The more you believe, the more religious you are, the more you should want to keep government out of religion," Bloomberg said, "because someday it's not going to be your religion."

But if there is a Jewish Center, then why not?
