As a professional architect, I wonder why the Planning Commission of lower Manhattan decided to keep its residents uninformed about a project in this sensitive location with such purpose and proportion. A project of this size would normally need in-depth urban study and infrastructure planning. The location for construction of an Islamic cultural center in very close proximity to the disaster area of Ground Zero -- where less than nine years ago two commercial airliners carrying innocent passengers were hijacked by Muslims from Saudi Arabia and Egypt and flown into two office buildings -- is not a mistake or coincidence. At the very least, it is insensitive to Americans.
Aren't we the least bit suspicious of this desired harmony when public condemnations or demonstrations of remorse made by Muslims and Arab leaders regarding this barbaric act have been few and far between? In fact, the reports we do have are to the contrary, with Arabs and Muslims around the world celebrating the success of this attack on the United States. Furthermore, all Americans have suffered the offensive rumors that claim the origin of the 9/11 attacks to be an inside job by our own FBI or the American Jews -- insulting our intelligence and humiliating the victims and their families with this insidious form of denial.
Let us not forget as well that New York City Mayor Giuliani refused to accept a donation of ten million dollars from a Saudi Prince as a pledge to rebuild whatever was destroyed by Arab terrorists (his own fellow citizens) in lower Manhattan. It is now important that New Yorkers and all Americans remember the reason for the former mayor's rejection of this offer, along with the prince's statement against U.S. policy in favor of Israel.

When they let us put up a Catholic Cathedral and a Pentocostal Megachurch in downtown Mecca, get back to me.
BUMP!
All Orthodox Christians - indeed all Christians of whatever denomination should protest this travesty!
whre’s Giuliani — a true American hero — thrown into the garbage in the presidential election when idiot middle american republicans wouldn’t support him because....
he’s divorced and he once wore a dress in a tv comedy skit.
They won’t be satisfied with anything less than a fundamentalist minister, never mind if he has no leadership, no foreign policy experience, and could never get elected in a milllion years.
Imagine life now with president Giukiani —
the republicans have only themselves to blame.
What the H*LL is going on here?
What is going on you ask...Insanity rules!
The sobering comment marked the second time within a week the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs expressed his concern over the current situation in Afghanistan. On Monday he told soldiers at Ft Campbell in Kentucky the same thing."

I'd call it Islamization. It reminds me of putting up a victory flag. We lost, they won. They sure as hell will spin it that way. We're damn weak fools if we allow this.
