Why Did Cordoba Project Change It's Name To Park 51, When It's Address is 45 47 Park?

Good question, huh? I've wondered about this for awhile.

Cordoba House changed its name to Park 51 which is odd since the address of the location is 45 47 Park Place.

Look to the Koran-the book of islamic conquest Qur'an CHAPTER 51, Verses 45-47 explains all:

51:45 And they were unable to arise, nor could they defend themselves. 51:46 And [We destroyed] the people of Noah before; indeed, they were a people defiantly disobedient. 51:47 And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander.

The numbered Qur'an verses celebrating the Muslim conquests match up to the Park 51: 45-46-47 address.

Also consider this Sept. 10th NYPost article, by Amir Taheri:

Islam center's eerie echo of ancient terror Should there be a mosque near Ground Zero? In fact, what is pro posed is not a mosque -- nor even an "Islamic cultural center."

In Islam, every structure linked to the faith and its rituals has a precise function and character. A mosque is a one-story gallery built around an atrium with a mihrab (a niche pointing to Mecca) and one, or in the case of Shiites two, minarets.

Other Islamic structures, such as harams, zawiyyahs, husseinyiahs and takiyahs, also obey strict architectural rules. Yet the building used for spreading the faith is known as Dar al-Tabligh, or House of Proselytizing.

The Ground Zero project doesn't fit the traditional minaret. This 13-story [fifteen story if you include subgrade levels] multifunctional structure couldn't be any of the above.

The groups fighting for the project know this; this is why they sometimes call it an Islamic cultural center. But there is no such thing as an Islamic culture. Islam is a religion, not a culture. Each of the 57 Muslim-majority nations has its own distinct culture -- and the Bengali culture has little in common with the Nigerian. Then, too, most of those countries have their own cultural offices in the US, especially in New York. Islam is an ingredient in dozens of cultures, not a culture on its own.

In theory, at least, the culture of American Muslims should be American. Of course, this being America, each ethnic community has its distinct cultural memories -- the Iranians in Los Angeles are different from the Arabs in Dearborn.

In fact, the proposed structure is known in Islamic history as a rabat -- literally a connector. The first rabat appeared at the time of the Prophet.

The Prophet imposed his rule on parts of Arabia through a series of ghazvas, or razzias (the origin of the English word "raid"). The ghazva was designed to terrorize the infidels, convince them that their civilization was doomed and force them to submit to Islamic rule. Those who participated in the ghazva were known as the ghazis, or raiders. After each ghazva, the Prophet ordered the creation of a rabat -- or a point of contact at the heart of the infidel territory raided.

The rabat consisted of an area for prayer, a section for the raiders to eat and rest and facilities to train and prepare for future razzias. Later Muslim rulers used the tactic of ghazva to conquer territory in the Persian and Byzantine empires. After each raid, they built a rabat to prepare for the next razzia.

It is no coincidence that Islamists routinely use the term ghazva to describe the 9/11 attacks against New York and Washington. The terrorists who carried out the attack are referred to as ghazis or shahids (martyrs). Thus, building a rabat close to Ground Zero would be in accordance with a tradition started by the Prophet. To all those who believe and hope that the 9/11 ghazva would lead to the destruction of the American "Great Satan," this would be of great symbolic value.

Faced with the anger of New Yorkers, the promoters of the project have started calling it the Cordoba House, echoing President Obama's assertion that it would be used to propagate "moderate" Islam.

The argument is that Cordoba, in southern Spain, was a city where followers of Islam, Christianity and Judaism lived together in peace and produced literature and philosophy.

In fact, Cordoba's history is full of stories of oppression and massacre, prompted by religious fanaticism. It is true that the Muslim rulers of Cordoba didn't force their Christian and Jewish subjects to accept Islam. However, non-Muslims could keep their faith and enjoy state protection only as dhimmis (bonded ones) by paying a poll tax in a system of religious apartheid.

If whatever peace and harmony that is supposed to have existed in Cordoba were the fruit of "Muslim rule," the subtext is that the United States would enjoy similar peace and harmony under Islamic rule.

A rabat in the heart of Manhattan would be of great symbolic value to those who want a high-profile, "in your face" projection of Islam in the infidel West. This thirst for visibility is translated into increasingly provocative forms of hijab, notably the niqab (mask) and the burqa. The same quest mobilized hundreds of Muslims in Paris the other day to close a whole street so that they could have a Ramadan prayer in the middle of the rush hour.

One of those taking part in the demonstration told French radio that the aim was to "show we are here." "You used to be in our capitals for centuries," he said. "Now, it is our turn to be in the heart of your cities."

Before deciding whether to support or oppose the "Cordoba" project, New Yorkers should consider what it is that they would be buying.

Coincidentally, another audacious ME construction project involving surprising landmark status decisions is going to forever change the NYC skyline. It just happens to be called Carnegie57. The qur'an verses for chapter 57 include:

•All that is in the heavens and the earth glorifieth Allah

•His is the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth; He quickeneth and He giveth death; and He is Able to do all things

• the Messenger invites you to believe in your Lord, •He is the One Who sends to His Servant Manifest Signs, that He may lead you from the depths of Darkness into the Light and verily Allah is to you most kind and Merciful.

• And what cause have ye why ye should not spend in the cause of Allah?- For to Allah belongs the heritage of the heavens and the earth. Not equal among you are those who spent (freely) and fought, before the Victory,

Taqiyyah and Kitman being practiced right before our eyes. But due to the ignorance of the intelligista, eiltists and dhimmis, towards the cult of Islam, all is well in their eyes because they take it all at face value. Afraid to look at the wolf behind the burqa and admit they are truly ignorant about Islam and its pernicious objectives.

No new mosques at GZ or anywhere else in America. The cult of Islam is not compatible with western civilization.

Remember the forefathers of these same intelligista, elitists and dhimmis thought Nazism, Stalimism and Maoism were peaceful and harmless ideologies also. History shows where this thinking led.

4+5 = 9
4+7 = 11

So 4547 = FU America.

Finally, some math I can understand!

As to the rest of the article, I about peed myself laughing. Not because I disagree, but because “eureka” often leads to such laughter. That makes so much sense.

Personally, I think the extremely dull-witted, sly and oleaginous imam Ralph can’t even get the address right. What a maroon.

Hey Mayor Bloomberg! Glad you backed this idiot?

Good catch!

Frankly, I think its time to make allusions to Lepanto.

Dear "Hammer:"
A mosque near Ground Zero? We’ll THINK about it. BUT FIRST…

No GZ mosque, no mosques anywhere in America. The cult of islam demands “understanding”, which is taqiyyah and kitman, while they build a mosque on a Christian cemetary, yet riot over the burning of a book.

Roger that. The PC morons allegedly "leading" this nation (down the road to Perdition) have their heads where the sun don't shine and are going to get millions more of us killed as they aid and abet the destruction of what remains of Western Civilization!

"I summon my blue-eyed slaves anytime it pleases me. I command the Americans to send me their bravest soldiers to die for me. Anytime I clap my hands a stupid genie called the American ambassador appears to do my bidding. When the Americans die in my service their bodies are frozen in metal boxes by the US Embassy and American airplanes carry them away, as if they never existed. Truly, America is my favorite slave."

I guess their oil is the only POSSIBLE reason to shed American blood for these people. It begs a question: WHY THE HELL AREN’T WE USING OUR OWN?? ARE WE MAD? (Don’t answer that.)

The GZ mosque is what they refer to as a victory mosque...it is what they build when they believe they have pummeled their enemy. It will be viewed as a western mecca...muslims from around the world will journey there on every 9/11 to celebrate. It must be stopped!

Enough with the sensitivity crap already

I believe this. Muslims from around the world will come here every 911 to celebrate.
