Mysterious Group Buys Building Next to Ground Zero for Mosque.
The original article at Hudson New York asks the question in it's title, "Mosque At the World Trade Center: Muslim Renewal Or Insult Near Ground Zero."
I'll vote for INSULT!!
Can I say how absolutely disturbing this is?? First, we get the Flight 93 memorial shaped in the form of a crescent pointing towards Mecca, now this?
I am extremely appalled, totally dismayed and absolutely disgusted…
Hat tips to all links.
Was so upset I forgot to include an excerpt:
An identified group with unknown sponsors has purchased building steps away from where the WorldTrade Center once stood -- to turn it into potentially one of the largest New York City mosques.
At the moment the building, the old Burlington Coat Factory, already serves as a mini-mosque: an iron grill lifts every Friday afternoon for a little known Imam leading prayers a few yards away from where Osama Bin Laden’s airborne Islamist bombers killed nearly 3000 people back in 2001.
The Imam, Feisal Abdul Rauf, told the New York Times -- which put the story on its front page Wednesday -- that he has assembled several million dollars to turn it into ‘’an Islamic center near the city’s most hallowed piece of land that would stand as one of ground zero’s more unexpected and striking neighbors.’’
The 61-year-old Imam said he paid $4.85 million for it -- in cash, records show. With 50,000 square feet of air rights and enough financing, he plans an ambitious project of $150 million, he said, akin to the Chautauqua Institution, the 92 Street Y or the Jewish Community Center.
The origins of such monies are unexplained; neither are the countries or entity advancing such huge donations. Most US mosques, including many in Brooklyn, Queens and the Bronx are funded directly or indirectly by Saudi Arabia the country to which 15 of the 19 hijackers who bombed the World TradeCenter belonged. The UAE, Qatar and Iran are other major sponsors across the USA.
The money trail is an important question that must be answered by the Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg with more than a bland comment by one of his spokesmen, Andrew Brent, who quipped to the Times, “If it’s legal, the building owners have a right to do what they want.”
This guy Brent and that millionaire idiot Bloomberg are clueless political hacks!! Money obviously talks - not love for America, not sorrow for the 9/11 terrorist attack, not honor for our Judeo-Christian heritage, and not a clue about the need for protection, integrity, faith and remembrance for the 9/11 victims and their STILL GRIEVING FAMILIES!
What will it take for Americans to wake up and smell the coming Muslim invasion (just ask Britain what they are going through now) and forcing Sharia "law" upon our beloved nation??
I can only imagine the government backlash if a Christian or jewish (or name a non Muslim religion here) had attempted such a shrine. Now we're going to allow insult to injury by having the "religion" that was the motivation for the attack to build one of their largest mosque (shrine to the terrorists?) at ground zero? Talk about sickening. Talk about enbolding the enemy. Our government's appeasement to the Islamic enemy knows no bounds. I would add a couple more options to the list: Islamic arrogance and Government stupidity.
