Not only that, soon as someone objects to it, there's a lot of Muslim organizations that will keep condemning and preaching about the "infidels" and their intolerance towards Islam, but they say nothing about the violent Muslim fundamentalists that give them that kind of reputation.
its no joke.
just google the title of this thread.
i would be slightly less concerned if building a mosque at a site like that wasnt a sign of being conquered in the eyes of many in the extremest Muslim community. there is a history of that.
i laugh at the "considerate comment" because there are many out there that are making the argument that it is being done to show their dominance over the US and the land they conquered.
i have heard bits and pieces of the argument so i am not prepared to too much further into it or to perpetuate it, but i think it is worth looking into
i do often wonder where the good Muslims are in situations like this. just like i wondered where the good Muslims were when there were riots in the street over a cartoon, or when a girl get sentenced to be stoned to death because she was the victim of a gang rape. shouldnt those good Muslims be standing up and condemning these clearly violent and hateful acts? the Islamic community is awfully silent on these violent acts while still claiming to be a religion of peace.
...actions like the the good Catholics that condemn the Priests that molest children.
often things go compleatly against commen sense.
for example this is a resent news story

this is just pethetic.
i think most of us brits are fed up of having to put up with *** like this, espesialy when we see america not putting up with it. or at least thats how the media portray it.
here is a link to a guy called pat condell. almost everything he says is bang on the money, in this video and ofers. if only he was in goverment.
Oh NY puts up with and does alot. They have schools set up to teach students in their native language, they teach in over 30 languages. Not teach english, have teachers that know the language and teach in that language.
My opinion is more simple though, this is a business area. Financial sector, other businesses, etc. There is no reason or need for any relgious momument or worship place of any kind, because in turn it will only be devisive to someone---and more importantly, this has nothing to do with religion and everything to do with business and lets keep the d@mn churchs out of it. Just because there was a travesty there and people died, doesnt mean everyone or anyone has a right to put up a buliding to worship their god. If you want to go further, put back up some buildings to worship what really matters to the area and the country...money, properity, and American pride.
i heard something interesting about this today. two things, actually:
1) this Mosque is going to be called Cordoba House. this is named after Cordoba, Spain where there was a great victory for Islam where Muslim conquerors defeated Spanish Christians in the 8th century
2) the begin date for construction for this Mosque on ground zero is September 11, 2011
ten years to the day.
NY must love getting their eye spat in.
You want a lie? Try this one. It came from Nihad Awad, one of the founders and presently the Executive Director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). Awad has past connections to the Islamic terrorist group Hamas and has declared his support of the Hamas movement. Last night Awad was a guest on O'Reilly. The topic, of course, was the Mosque. Now ... here's your lie. Awad told O'Reilly that there was no connection with the Muslim community and the 9/11 terrorist hijackers. Islam is supposed to condemn the liar ... but Awad will not be condemned for this lie because it was (a) uttered in the furtherance of Islamist goals; and (b) was told to infidels.
Sorry, that's just the way my brain operates.
