Daisy Khan, wife of Imam Rauf, says there is too much at stake to back down on the Ground Zero Mosque now.
"There is too much at stake, constitutional rights, the development of the Muslims here, how the world is watching the United States. We tell people America upholds religious freedom. We should not compromise those values."
She maintains that the resistance has strengthened the resolve of the mosque supporters, she states that the supporters worry that if they cave on this issue that they may be next. (Whatever the Hell that means) She emphasizes that Americans must realize that not all Muslims are extremists and they must learn to distinguish between extremists and moderate Muslims and not be ruled by Islamaphobia.
Khan said the organizers "will have a dialogue" with the families of 9/11 victims, but added about the mosque site: "It is private property. To walk away without taking everything into consideration would be irresponsible."Instead of creating enemies, she said, she hopes this controversy will help people better understand Islam. "We are debating about having a healing dialogue, building bridges, and this whole thing has turned into the opposite of what we have envisioned," she said.
Khan said she is completely taken aback by the opposition.
Many people are asking why they are pursuing the project if they only want to build a dialogue with America?
She maintains that partisan strife is causing the conflict and that the Republicans are really going after them. She considers the construction of the Ground Zero Mosque to be a "defining moment" for Islam: hold on babe, isn't it supposed to build a dialogue with Americans and Muslims? I hear warning bells in the background.

“Daisy Khan Blames Republicans For Ground Zero Mosque Problems”
I don’t suppose muslims being responsible for acts of murder had anything to do with it.
If Daisy were in any Muslim country and not the USA, she wouldn’t be so free to speak...
The raggies seem to be suffering from Republicanphobia. Hannity had some raggie on a few days ago and it was the same thing. “Republicans” this, “Republicans” that. I wonder if the DNC is coaching these muzzies. Hmmmmmmm.
$100m is a lot of money that can be skimmed. just sayin
To convert you and then kill you, in that order.
Daisy, Daisy — Crazy lady.
The Olympia Snowe Republicans? Harde-har -har hardly.
“Instead of creating enemies, she said, she hopes this controversy will help people better understand Islam. “
This asinine statement demonstrates that the cultural divide is too great to be spanned. Mind-boggling.
Daisy, no.
It was some muzzies in planes that are causing your problems.
It is called ‘cause and effect’.
Why not nationalize their assets? Diplomacy=appeasement, and that doesn’t work well for us. Perhaps not realistic, but so much fun to think about (giggle).
Does she look like Daisy Duke?

Finally we get credit for doing something good. Daisy kiss my red white and blue arse, because we will block than darn mosque. There is no valid reason to support the building of that center of Islamic Terrorism on that sacred ground so go screw yourself, and take that Obama fella with ya huh!
Idiot!
What that means is that she thinks you deserve to die ~ Mohammad said "Kill the hypocrites".
I wouldn't turn my back on her, and make sure they check under her skirt before letting her in any building.
She seems to be a hardliner ~ her husband is just her meatpuppet.
if a bunch of Christians got some planes and whacked them into mecca and kill thousands of muslims then would they let us then build a church?
Sorry course not they don’;t even let Christians into mecca
As for this crap of them being a tolerant religion then why are they not tolerant of those who lost loved ones?
Why do they not let non muslims into mosques?
Why do they treat women like dogs?
And for the far left kooks and homosexuals then why would they want to kill you if they are so tolerant.
Since islam was founded by this child molesting cave dwelling caravan leader(all true) there has always been wars and violence with them in it based on their so called religion.
As for religion then I do not look at it as one.
It is an ideology which looks to push their views onto others by talk and then violence.
It looks to bring their laws and change others laws by force if needed.
Over a hundred verses call for death to non muslims and it is high time that these ignorant dumb far left whack jobs learn about this so called religion and then they need to study history.
Hell most of them do not even know it was muslims who tried to take over France , took over Spain by force and look to overthrow the west and our laws.way of life.
No Sir/madam, I am tolerant for women’s rights and if the left/press were they would stop supporting this ideology.
Lebanon, Holland the UK many more places where islam is taking hold and where religious violence and deaths by them are on the rise .
For crying out loud mohammed had sex with a little girl and they worship this guy, WTH
Here are four letters for you to learn, Daisy: STFU!
they say they want to bring people together , well DUH look you idiots it is ripping people apart so lets cut the crap and say why this mosque is really there.
I’ll start it for them, mosques for hundreds of years have been built on sites which they look to say they have won, hold, own and govern.
There now let them carry that truth on.
