NYC Mosque - and the Impending September 11 Date!

"America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves." - Abraham Lincoln

It is not enough that homegrown terrorists are popping up like weeds but we are about to allow the building of a monument to the destruction of the World Trade Center. The mosque in Virginia had a Radical Imam Anwar al Awlaki that supported Major Malik Nadal Hasan, the Fort Hood shooter. Now we have Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf described by the MSM as a “moderate”. So what exactly is a moderate Imam? If this Imam Rauf truly intends to “unite” the Muslims and the American people then you would think that he would agree to build his mosque else where away from ground zero.

Very few Muslims have spoken against building the mosque at ground zero even with Governor David Paterson offering to help find a suitable area at a different location. When the World Trade Center was bombed using our own commercial airlines on September 11, 2001, 3000 lives were lost during and after the attack by Islamic terrorists. We know for a fact that they were “devout Muslims”. Therefore it is an affront to build the Islamic mosque anywhere near ground zero. The Ground Zero Area should be a memorial to the victims and heroes of this devastating attack.

It is hard to fathom that there would be anyone in America not understanding that this mosque, if built, would be like rubbing salt in a wound. What is more unnerving is that we have a president who is supporting this vile action. Mayor Michael Bloomberg is a staunch supporter of this project and seems to be determined to have the mosque built. Meanwhile, Imam Rauf has been asked by the State Department to be the “ambassador” to the Middle East using American taxpayer money. Knowing what we know about this Imam Rauf and his reaction to the 911 attacks, saying that we were an “accessory” to the murders, should give us all reason to question his motives. This administration is totally blind to the obvious and totally deaf to the voice of the American people.

The $100 million project renamed Park51, with 13 floors will have spaces for restaurants, bookstores, a swimming pool, and auditorium and of course “art”. Not only is this mosque fertile ground for sharia law but it is the perfect place to instill liberal views to budding artists. We should not forget that when Pope Benedict made some “insulting” remarks that Islam had been spread by violence he was severely criticized. So we know for a fact that a Christian can not speak his mind about Islam without retribution, but a Muslim can do and say whatever he likes. In fact, it is my understanding that the New York City Muslims stop and pray on the public streets of the city and even have a website with the prayer times. The Greek Orthodox Church, St Nicholas that was destroyed during the 911 attack has yet to be rebuilt. Wonder how much religious tolerance we will endure before we really take action against this peaceful invasion.

Dear President Obama:

Just a few words to let you know it is not always easy to provide your personal opinion on how you feel about different situations from one point or another. I want you to know I commend you on being the leader you are.

You can not satisfy all the people all the time. It was your belief during your campaign that you believe America can be a greater nation.  Through your leadership America has hope and a brighter future we never had before. Through your leadership Mr. President America can see a light at the end of the tunnel. I want to thank you for that light.

America still has a long journey to travel. Continue to Stay focus Mr. President and when it is all said and done after your (8) years of being America President your legacy will have proven your vision, compassion, leadership and love for your country put America and Americans back to being the greatest nation on earth.

“I believe that Muslims have the same right to practice their religion as anyone else in this country. I understand the emotions that this issue engenders. Ground zero is, indeed, hallowed ground. This is America, and our commitment to religious freedom must be unshakable. The principle that people of all faiths are welcome in this country, and will not be treated differently by their government, is essential to who we are. In fact, Al Qaeda has killed more Muslims than people of any other religion, and that list includes innocent Muslims who were killed on 9/11.”

Bishop Dixon stated “America is too proud of a country to deprive innocent Americans who are law abiding citizens where or where not they can worship their religion.  Come on America we have to many other issues that need to be resolve than to squabble over where Islam members will be building a temple. I believe the economy and employment for all who want to work is issues we need to resolve. This can only be accomplished by corporate America and Main Street working together.”

I am native New Yorker and I am all for respecting the sanctity of Ground Zero. I think people like Sarah Palin and Newt Gingrich are in a real race to the bottom on this one.

The case that Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf is radical is based on statements he made about the causes of 9/11--that were nearly identical to sentiments made by Glenn Beck. Neither being supporters of radical Islam. Unless Beck gets to say it b/c he is white American and Rauf doesn't b/c he isn't.

I find it interesting that there are two strip clubs, New York Doll's Gentleman's Club and the Pussycat Lounge, and two sex shops, Thunder Lingerie and More, closer to Ground Zero than this mosque. Where was Sarah Palin and her moral outrage then?

As for respecting hallowed ground? Muslim's kneeling and praying is not disrespectful in and of itself. Muslims are kneeling and praying inside the Pentagon and again...no cries of outrage from Palin, Gingrich and the rest.

Opening a mosque is not the same thing as opening an Al Qaeda training camp. We are not at war with all of Islam--which is a good thing b/c there are 1.8 billion Muslims in the world and we probably don't have enough bullets and bombs.

Remember part of the reason the Surge in Iraq was so successful was the Sunni Awakening which saw 80,000 Muslims take up arms against Al Qaeda. Remember the Green Revolution in Iran.
