America Speaks! Historic 911 Rally Draws 40,000

Pamela Geller at Atlas Shrugs has great pics of the Rally few if any of us heard nor saw about on 9/11. Hot Air has some great links too.

The FDI/SIOA Freedom Rally– be sure and wander over for inspiration.

There was no end. You could not see the horizon. The media pretends these tens of thousands  people don’t exist. It’s criminal.  

Imam Rauf: U.S. has more Muslim Blood on its hands than al Qaida

Pamela Geller over at Atlas Shrugs has an exclusive vid…. from “the moderate” Imam that we are sending over to the middle east on our dime. Building Bridges, oh let me chuckle.

ATLAS EXCLUSIVE! IMAM FEISAL’S EXTREMISM EXPOSED: IN HIS OWN WORDS: “the United States has more Muslim blood on its hands than al Qaida,” Elimination of Israel, and the N-Word

Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf: “We tend to forget, in the West, that the United States has more Muslim blood on its hands than al Qaida has on its hands of innocent non Muslims. You may remember that the US-led sanctions against Iraq led to the death of over half a million Iraqi children. This has been documented by the United Nations. And when Madeleine Albright, who has become a friend of mine over the last couple of years, when she was Secretary of State and was asked whether this was worth it, said it was worth it.

No mention of the 270 million victims of over a millennium of jihadi wars, land appropriations, cultural annihilation and enslavement. No mention of the recent slaughter by Muslims of Christians, Hindus, Jews, non-believers in Indonesia, Thailand, Ethiopia, Somalia, Philippines, Lebanon, Israel, Russia, China……………. no candor, no criticism of Islam.

Obama was for the Mosque before he was against it

President Barack Obama speaks in favour of the right to build a mosque close to Ground Zero at a White House dinner to mark the start of the Ramadan fast

President Barack Obama speaks in favour of the right to build a mosque close to Ground Zero at a White House dinner to mark the start of the Ramadan fast

I am getting to enjoy reading the British newspapers more each day. They have our guy pegged. Yep, those DVD’s and sending back the Churchhill bust, telling them to screw the Falklands and the Brits who live there, and otherwise treating the Brits like 2nd class folks,did not endear him to them. The first pic I have seen of the Ramadan Dinner fiasco.

Headline from  the Daily Mail UK

Obama backtracks over Ground Zero mosque after furious 9/11 families label him ‘insensitive and uncaring’

  • Friday: ‘Let me be clear: As a citizen and as President I believe that Muslims have the same right … to build a place of worship and a community centre on private property in Lower Manhattan’
  • Saturday: ‘I was not commenting and I will not comment on the wisdom of making a decision to put a mosque there’
  • Hamas: Muslims ‘have to build everywhere’ so they can pray like Christians and Jews
  • Mr Obama expressed his support for the mosque, which will replace a building damaged by the attacks, at a White House meal celebrating Ramadan.

    In his speech on Friday, Mr Obama said: ‘Let me be clear: As a citizen and as President I believe that Muslims have the same right to practise their religion as everyone else in this country.

    ‘That includes the right to build a place of worship and a community centre on private property in Lower Manhattan, in accordance with local laws and ordinances. This is America, and our commitment to religious freedom must be unshakable.’

    But the next day he insisted he had not been commenting on the ‘wisdom’ of placing a mosque in such a symbolic place.

    Challenged about his comments during a family trip to Florida at the weekend, the President said: ‘I was not commenting and I will not comment on the wisdom of making a decision to put a mosque there.

    ‘I was commenting very specifically on the right that people have that dates back to our founding.’

    Mr Obama said that ‘my intention was simply to let people know what I thought. Which was that in this country we treat everybody equally and in accordance with the law, regardless of race, regardless of religion.

    Mischief in Manhattan…now a cultural attack by Islam

     
     
     

    Let us never forget

    Let us never forget

     

    We Muslims Know Ground Zero Victory Mosque Is Deliberate Bad-Faith Provocation. Yes indeed– and yet now the State Dept is sending this Imam over to the middle east to fund raise? They have no shame.

     

    Read Bunkerville: State Dept of help fund raising tour in middle east

    When we try to understand the reasoning behind building a mosque at the epicentre of the worst-ever attack on the U.S., we wonder why its proponents don’t build a monument to those who died in the attack?

    New York currently boasts at least 30 mosques so it’s not as if there is pressing need to find space for worshippers. The fact we Muslims know the idea behind the Ground Zero mosque is meant to be a deliberate provocation to thumb our noses at the infidel. The proposal has been made in bad faith and in Islamic parlance, such an act is referred to as “Fitna,” meaning “mischief-making” that is clearly forbidden in the Koran.

    The Koran commands Muslims to, “Be considerate when you debate with the People of the Book” — i.e., Jews and Christians. Building an exclusive place of worship for Muslims at the place where Muslims killed thousands of New Yorkers is not being considerate or sensitive, it is undoubtedly an act of “fitna”

    So what gives Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf of the “Cordoba Initiative” and his cohorts the misplaced idea that they will increase tolerance for Muslims by brazenly displaying their own intolerance in this case?

    Do they not understand that building a mosque at Ground Zero is equivalent to permitting a Serbian Orthodox church near the killing fields of Srebrenica where 8,000 Muslim men and boys were slaughtered?

    State Dept. to Back Fund Raising Tour for Ground Zero Mosque (State Dept. Spits in America’s Eye)

    This was on Fox News:

    The State Dept. will pay for the fund raising tour of the Imam who wants to build the mosque at Ground Zero. He will visit Riyadh, S.A., Quater, and Dubai, among other countries. After several days of phone calls and e-mail inquiries, the State Dept. answered, “we need to get clearance to comment” No denial was forthcoming. The Imam already has a mosque 10 blocks from the sone he wants to build.http://209.157.64.201/focus/f-news/2567101/posts

    Secondly, from Pajamas Media:

    Our state department is financing a trip to the Middle East oil rich nations by the imam who wishes to build the 15 story Cordoba House mosque near the ruins of the WTC. It is suspected the trip is to raise money for this outrage to the memory of those who perished on 9/11.

    “Next stops for Feisal Abdul Rauf, imam of the plan for a mosque and Islamic center near Ground Zero: Courtesy of the U.S. State Department, Rauf – a.k.a. Imam Feisal – is scheduled to spend the rest of the summer on a swing through the petro-dollar palaces of Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Bahrain, and Qatar.

    Rauf’s summer itinerary suggests odd priorities for a man who, in the name of harmony and bridge-building, has stirred up a furious debate in the U.S. – and then quietly left the country last month, leaving many questions unanswered about such matters as where and how he plans to raise the $100 million he’ll need to realize his dream of a high-rise Islamic hub right up the street from where the Twin Towers stood.

    Neither Rauf nor the State Department seems eager to publicize his summer trip to Saudi Arabia and points nearby, though his tour appears imminent – as in, he’ll probably be touching down in the Middle East this coming week, and he’s not due back till early September.


     Feisal Abdul Rauf, who will not condemn Hamas. This was the man Man Who Paid $4.8 Million For Ground Zero Mosque Property Was a Waiter in 2002…

    Mysterious Group Buys Building Next to Ground Zero For Mosque

    Just about had enough of these Imams.Time for our government to put an end to this nonsense. Fat chance ..2010

    Hudson New York reported:

    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.
