Ground Zero Mosque

Stupid idea by New York allowing it- stupid idea by the Muslims building it as it just provokes more animosity.....
Altho in reports I've read there were around 30 Muslim religion following folks killed in the WTC on 9/11...A multi denomination/religion Chapel would make more sense.....

No Mosque at Ground Zero
Thursday, 22 Jul 2010 02:13 PM Article Font Size
By: Frank Gaffney

The Center for Security Policy today unveiled a powerful 1-minute video opposing the construction of a 13-story, $100 million mega-mosque near the hallowed ground of the World Trade Center.

The twin towers were destroyed on 9/11 by adherents to the barbaric, supremacist and totalitarian program authoritative Islam calls “Shariah.” And the imam who is promoting this mosque has publicly declared that he seeks to “bring Shariah to America.”



As the ad makes clear, Shariah’s followers have long built mosques on the most sacred sites of those they have conquered; for example, on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount, at Constantinople/Istanbul’s St. Sophia Basilica, and in Cordoba, Spain, the capital of the occupying Moors’ Muslim kingdom.

A growing chorus of New Yorkers and other Americans, including, notably, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin and former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, have expressed outrage at the prospect of a similar, permanent beachhead for Shariah being use to defile ground zero, and symbolize America’s defeat at the hands of her enemies.

We say, “No Mosque at Ground Zero.”

I saw on Fox News and read on the net that they are building a mosque on Ground Zero. Your thoughts?

consider this..

Al-Aqsa Mosque, or "Sacred Noble Sanctuary", a site also known as the Temple Mount, the holiest site in Judaism, the place where the First and Second Temples are generally accepted to have stood

Many rabbis, including Israel's chief rabbinate since 1967, have ruled that Jews should not walk on the Temple Mount due to the possibility of their stepping on the site of the Holy of Holies.

Islam has been unable to accept or respect others religions and holy sites so much so they built and maintained a mosque on the Jewish holiest site. so historically I would judge islams intentions by islams historic actions...

with that said.. we have a freedom of religion.. unequaled through out the world.. one who can welcome his enemies into his midst,.. surly is strong enough to convert their children....

They're rubbing it in our faces. Shame on NYC for allowing this.

Those are some of those liberal offered freedoms that you respect and vote for.

do some research on the Islam religion/politics is you have time, and you will see that it is very similar to liberalism.

while I don't disagree with you on the issue.. what is NYC supposed to do.. follow the law.. or emotions?

the law is clear... and there is no legal reason why the Mosque can't be built..

I’ve got this great idea: Let’s open a shooting range next to the L’Ecole Polytechnique in Montreal.

What, too soon after the Montreal Massacre?

Well how about a museum, overlooking Pearl Harbor, dedicated to the military accomplishments of Japanese

Emperor Hirohito?

Too tasteless?

OK. How about a 13-story, $100-million mosque at Ground Zero in New York City, on the rubble of a building that was damaged on 9/11? And let’s have it run by a Muslim radical who believes America had it coming. And let’s give the mosque a jihadist name: Cordoba House, named after the capital of the Muslim conquest of Spain centuries ago. And let’s make it a headquarters for Dawah, the Arabic word for promoting sharia law.

Alas, this is no joke. And the mayor of New York, Michael Bloomberg, couldn’t be happier.

Then again, Bloomberg has trouble separating wishful liberal thinking from reality.

When a car bomb was discovered in Times Square this spring, Bloomberg announced his suspicions on national

TV: “Somebody with a political agenda, that doesn’t like the health-care bill or something.”

Actually, it was a Pakistani trained terrorist named Faisal Shahzad.

The driving force of the mosque is a radical imam named Feisal Abdul Rauf.

Just weeks after 9/11 he told 60 Minutes that America had it coming—U.S. policies were to blame, andAmericans were “an accessory to the crime.”

That’s like telling a rape victim it’s her fault for wearing a skirt.

Rauf helped organize the recent terrorist flotilla that set sail for Gaza. He refuses to acknowledge that Hamas is a terrorist organization. But he has no trouble condemning “Christians in World War II” for bombing civilians in Hiroshima.

Rauf won’t even admit that Islamic terroristswere responsible for 9/11 itself. He told a New York radio station that’s just the “general perception.”

Rauf has been working on his plans for Ground Zero for a while. He published a book called A Call to Prayer from the World Trade Center Rubble: Islamic Da’wah in the Heart of America Post-9/11. It’s about expropriating the symbol of the crumbling U.S.—that can’t even build a memorial to 9/11 after nine years, let alone rebuild the towers — and contrasting it with a gleaming new tower of Saudi-style propaganda.

But even America-hating radicals have the right to build mosques in America, even at Ground Zero. That’s what makes America different from Saudi Arabia, where non-Muslims aren’t allowed to set foot in Mecca, let alone build a church.

But does the Saudi government have the right to build at Ground Zero? According to the Washington Times, the

Cordoba Initiative has assets of just $20,000 and total revenues since 2004 have been $100,000. How do you get from there to $100 million?

Rauf won’t say, but hints at outside funding.

Saudi Arabia has a religious foreign ministry, called the Muslim World League. It gave $7 million to build Toronto’s

Islamic Centre, and more to mosques in Calgary and Montreal.

Are they the source? There are 100 mosques in New York City. But the Ground Zero mosque isn’t really a mosque. It’s a jihadist headquarters. And if the secret $100 million is from Saudi Arabia, it’s not even a mosque at all—it’s a clandestine embassy for the country from which 15 out of 19 9/11 terrorists came.

Well now you just started a discussion on whether legality trumps ethics all the time, some of the time or never . . .

Why are the muslims wanting to build a mosque there if their motivations is not based on emotion?

Why does the winner run a victory lap?

I don't disagree with you but for those against the mosque.. fighting it in court may only delay it and cost the city millions... mainly because they have no legal basis for their not wanting the mosque in that location..

I personally don't want it there.. I think the intention and reasoning behind putting it in NYC is a croc of bullsh--- and it is insulting to a majority of Americans..

but I wouldn't criticize the leadership of NYC for following the law.
