A federal judge this week ordered a Mississippi city to approve plans for a mosque to be built in the area and pay the mosque builders $25,000 for expenses that were racked up in the effort to gain approval.

U.S. District Judge Michael P. Mills for the Northern District of Mississippi issued the order on Monday, writing that the government of Horn Lake, Miss., must approve the site application for the Abraham House of God mosque within the next 14 days. Mills also ordered that the prior denial for the site application be considered void.

In addition to the $25,000 for incurred expenses, Mills also ordered that Horn Lake pay the attorneys' fees for the plaintiffs.

Good on the judge. No religion or belief should be denied the ability to build a house of worship for their specific belief. NOW with that being said if that house of worship becomes a place of sanctuary for those wishing to do harm or harbor anyone that does (any religion) it needs to be shut down...just like the Geneva Convention...when a mosque or a church becomes a HQ for the enemy with guns on top or inside then it is no longer a Mosque/Church and can now be a target.
