Ahmadinejad Eyes Visit to Ground Zero

New York Sun ^ | 9/19/07 | Staff Reporter of the Sun

[SelectiveJNJ]

The Iranian president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, is in discussions with the New York Police Department to visit ground zero on Monday, Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said today.

[SelectiveJNJ]

I feel this would be an insult to the victims of terrorism.

[roses of sharon]

What???????????????????????????????????????

The police comish is considering this?????????????

[Velveeta]

No!
Don’t let this puke soil the ground.

[southernindymom]

I agree, actually he should not really even be allowed in the country. I’m so tired of the country pandering to dictators.

[Jimmy Valentine's brother]

First he has to take a bath!

I don’t think he should be allowed in the US of A. Never mind wandering around NYC.

[668 - Neighbor of the Beast]

He wouldn’t be in Manhattan at all if it were my decision to make. Nor would the UN.

[william clark]

Yeah, that’ll go over well. In a hurry to get his 72 virgins, is he?

[rfp1234]

First let’s see if Condi Rice will be allowed to visit the Holy Shrine at Qom, without wearing a veil.

[Lurking in Kansas]

Disgusting.

[Billthedrill]

I’m good with that. Just so long as nobody else is hurt when he flies his plane into the ground.

[Mr. Jeeves]

Hmmm...well, if Iranian state television ends up using images of the event in the context of "The President Visits the Site of Islam's Greatest Triumph", then yes it's bad. On the other hand, the fact that the site is still an ugly hole six years after the attack reflects very poorly upon us.

Ahmadinejad visiting the site isn't automatically an insult to the victims and might even cause Al Qaeda some (further) credibility problems in recruiting.

[SlowBoat407]

Once he does that, it will be declared a holy site and the muslims will claim it for their own.

How long to get a protest together?

[ConorMacNessa]

What an outrage! It’s about as bad as letting Osama himself visit.

[agrace]

Please make Giuliani honorary mayor for the day.

[Enchante]

This sack of dog feces should not even be allowed into our country. If we feel we have to let Ahmawhackjob visit the UN then that should be the ONLY place he sets foot, nowhere else. Allow him to be driven to the UN and back the the airport, nowhere else, and for heaven’s sake do not allow one of the world’s leading terrorists to go make Islamo-terrorist propaganda at Ground Zero!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Archytekt]

yeah, and then he woke up....

[50sDad]

"Mr. Dinnerjacket? (Eleven) I hear you would like to visit Ground Zero. (Ten) Well, (Nine) we're doing everything (Eight) we can to (Seven) arrange that. (Six) In fact, (Five) you should be (Four) hearing the (Three) whistle of (Two) the nuke (One) any time now! (Zero!)

Uh, the sound of the high pictched whine was your phone melting, Mr. President."

[Red in Blue PA]

I was hoping this was from scrappleface.

[dfwgator]

Wherever Ahmadinejad goes should become an instant candidate for “Ground Zero.”

[usmcobra]

Only if we can shoot him on site for smiling.

[EBH]

I don’t trust him to visit Ground Zero.

Too bad this wasn’t known about sooner so folks could plan to ‘greet’ him there in protest!

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

I have no doubt that if Commish Kelley lets Nutjob go to Ground Zero, then Nutjob will say something stupid like it was all a Zionist plot. That’s what he’s been spouting ever since the Mullahs installed him into his position.

[subterfuge]

Well he’s already been to NY and gave a speech denouncing America and our president. What makes anyone think “the government” will keep him out.

Besides, doesn’t the NY Police department always decide who comes into the country and who doesn’t?

[pieceofthepuzzle]

He should just wait a while and then he can visit ground zero at his former nukes facilities.

[toddlintown]

What balls!

Maybe the next president can visit the hole that once was Tehran.

[brownsfan]

“I feel this would be an insult to the victims of terrorism.”

I’m sure that would be this animal’s intent. Salt in the wound.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Disgusting.

I’m sure he wants to go there for a personal chuckle.

He probably wants to visit also the Holocaust Museum for a few laughs after lunch.

He should be booted for making the request alone.

[noname07718]

They should allow the visit. Just make sure that there are NO police around and let the average man on the street (and the construction workers in the pit) give him the proper USA welcome he has so richly earned. Perhaps he would like to invite that piece of scum from Venezuela along for the visit.

[noname07718]

Get us out of the UN and get the UN of the US.

[Freee-dame]

The reason that so many people like Rudy despite his personal life and his view on social issues is that,if anybody could, he would have found a way to keep Ach from going there, even if he had to take heat for it. Later, when the heat came, he would have stood up for his decision.

All these years of having President Bush, almost all of whose positions I agree with, allow himself to be bullied has made many of us sick of being a conservative punching bag. I won't vote for Rudy in the primary, but will happily vote for him in the general if he is the candidate.

[JZelle]

I’m sure Mike Wallace would love to show him around.

[txhurl]

I wonder if Nutjob views Ground Zero as the proverbial well he’s supposed to crawl out of, as 12th Imam.

[hulagirl]

Yeah, let’s hope someone makes it his ground zero.

[Enchante]

"Ahmadinejad visiting the site isn't automatically an insult to the victims"

Sorry, but I believe that a very large proportion of victims' families and friends would disagree!! As one who saw the towers burning and lost friends there that day, while I cannot speak for anyone else I will be appalled and outraged if Ahmawhackjob is allowed anywhere near Ground Zero. That sack of dung should not be allowed to go anywhere but the UN (I'd rather not even allow him into the country but I assume that as long as we are host for the UN we must have an obligation to allow heads of state to visit there). Ahmawhackjob is head of the world's most active terror state according to our own State Dept.

[AmericanMade1776]

Ahmadinejad , should only be allowed to Visit Ground Zero, after he has visited the Holocaust sits in Germany, since he thinks the Holocaust never happened. PIG!

[Non-Sequitur]

According to the UN Treaty, the United States has to allow Ahmadinejad transit between point of entry, the UN Headquarters District, and his country’s UN mission. And that’s it. No sight-seeing. This shouldn’t even be an issue for the NYPD to be considering unless the State Department OKs it.

[WhistlingPastTheGraveyard]

Surreal. According the 9/11 Commission report and a decade of intelligence, Iran/Hizbollah was an accomplice to the attack (as well as others).

We’re become so suicidally ridiculous, it’s almost funny.

[F15Eagle]

How about a nice vacation in Gitmo for him instead?

[WhistlingPastTheGraveyard]

We're. We've...

[Ender Wiggin]

Once he does that, it will be declared a holy site and the muslims will claim it for their own.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
You may be on to something here. But can he declare it a holy site, or does a cleric need to do that?

Naturally a mullah from a NY mosque could declare it a holy site, but who’d know without the publicity Nutjob will generate.

If he is allowed to visit, I bet Rosie and Charlie Sheen will also be invited.

[McGruff]

We can’t keep him out of the U.N. but that’s the only place he is welcome.

Or he can stay home and we’ll give him a ground zero to tour.

[Battle Hymn of the Republic]

I say let him visit - maybe it will torque enough people off.

We need to light a fire under the butt of this country!

[DoughtyOne]

For the lack of a single spine...

Serioiusly, what is going on here?

This guy wants to see first hand what his buds accomplished, and we sucker for it?

Just damn!

[Liberty Valance]

What an insulting little b@stard he is.
Never forget!

[AngelesCrestHighway]

What an insult to all who perished there!

[Jim Noble]

If Rudy were the mayor, this would be unimaginable.

And if the President had his head screwed on right, it would be, too.

[indylindy]

If this advocate of murder and subjugation is allowed to go to Ground Zero it would be a slam to the 3000 that died there because of Islam.

[NavyCanDo]

He should be arrested as soon as his plane touches down.

[pgkdan]

If he dares to desecrate that site I hope somebody !
