Conspiracy Paranoia Alert. Note how respectful, even deferential NBC’s Andrea Mitchell is toward the Thug-In-Chief, and how anxious she is to show him that Jewish leaders, and clearly she herself, think that a triumphal mega-mosque at Ground Zero would be a fine thing. Contrast that to the confrontational, hostile tone mainstream media interviewers take on […]
Imam of Moscow mosque threatens that Muslims will gather for prayer in Orthodox churches
“Moscow is the only place in the world where over one million Muslims are served in only four mosques. We lack premises for praying. Muslims are allowed to conduct their religious ceremonies in Orthodox churches, but we would rather avoid this extreme measure.” In other words, give us more mosques, or we will take over […]
Your move, Rauf: Russian chess chief offers $10 million for Ground Zero mosque site
The way this is shaping up, Rauf will either get his mosque or make a handsome profit for putting it a block or two away from Ground Zero. As Pamela Geller says, “I hate the idea of paying the jizya (or blackmail, for that matter), but the idea of a 15-story mega mosque on Ground […]
Australia: Islamic validity of terror attacks debated in mosque
Is a transcript of this debate available? It could be exceedingly illuminating, particularly if those who were against the Islamic validity of such attacks did not object to them merely on prudential grounds, but on Islamic theological grounds. If so, this would be one of those rare sightings of that ever-elusive unicorn, an Islamic theological […]
Sharif el-Gamal, thug developer of Ground Zero mega-mosque, is being evicted from his SoHo office for racking up $39,000 in back rent
The thuggish, in-your-face aspect of the desire to build a mosque at Ground Zero has by now been amply documented: belying their claims to be building it only to affect reconciliation and peace, mosque leaders have smeared all opponents of the mosque as racists and bigots and refused all entreaties to put their mosque elsewhere. […]
Islamic supremacist Imam Rauf: Ground Zero mosque site not “hallowed ground”
Nearly 3,000 dead at Ground Zero. The landing gear from one of the 9/11 planes severely damaging the building he wants to tear down to build his mega-mosque. But those things don’t make the ground hallowed ground. Maybe only the presence of a nice big triumphal mosque will do that. Feisal Abdul Rauf continues to […]
Wilders: “We must not give a free hand to those who want to subjugate us”
Photo by David Pietrusza Here via Atlas is the text of Geert Wilders’ keynote address at the 9/11 Rally of Remembrance yesterday: Dear friends, May I ask you to be silent for ten seconds? Just be silent and listen. Ten seconds. And listen… What we hear are the sounds of life in the greatest city […]
“By now Rauf’s professed ignorance of the damage he is doing to the fabric of our society is undeniably willful”
The pictures don’t lie (Photo by El Marco) The NYPD was adamant yesterday that our 9/11 Rally of Remembrance must not run over the allotted time for even one minute, and so unfortunately a couple of speakers who had been slated toward the end of the program were unable to speak. I’m pleased therefore to […]
Florida pastor calls off Qur’an-burning, says mega-mosque to move away from Ground Zero
This is momentous, if it turns out to be true. I will keep you posted. “Fla. Minister Cancels Burning of Qurans on 9/11,” from AP, September 9: GAINESVILLE, Fla. (Sept. 9) — The leader of a small Florida church that espouses anti-Islam philosophy says he is canceling plans to burn copies of the Quran on […]
U.K.: Nothing says “we want to integrate and co-exist as equals” like a mega-mosque complex with a giant minaret
Subtle! The attitude and approach of these developers are strikingly similar to those of the Ground Zero mega-mosque’s backers: they are demanding sensitivity while showing none, building ostentatiously and acting aggressively, and then gnashing their teeth about “intolerance.” Suppose these obnoxious structures planned for Dudley were part of a mall or a sports arena. When […]
