Spitting in the Face of Everyone Murdered on 9/11 (UN pays for mega-mosque 600ft from Ground Zero!)
Blitz Comprehensive Tabloid Weekly ^ | May 14, 2010 | Gadi Adelman

Posted on 05/17/2010 9:25:56 AM PDT by pillut48

The project of a community center /mosque is being proposed by two organizations, the American Society for Muslim Advancement (ASMA) and their sister organization, the Cordoba Initiative. This past Wednesday night they made their presentation to the Community Board of lower Manhattan (CB1). Twelve people sit on the board and would you like to guess what the final vote was? Get ready to grab a barf bag … the 12 members voted unanimously to support the project. Yes, it's not a typo, it was unanimous, all were in favor and, to give you an idea of how excited the board members were, they applauded during the presentation....

The estimated cost for the 13 story building is $100 million dollars. According to page 8 of the ASMA website financial statements for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2009 they have "temporarily restricted net assets" as follows:

UNFPA (United Nations Population Fund) $ 53,664

MDG3 Fund (Millennium Development Goals) $481,942

Hunt Alternatives Fund $15,000

Carnegie Corporation of N.Y. $ 144,752

The Rockefeller Brothers Fund $50,000

Qatar government fund $576,312

Interestingly, I had no trouble locating all of the groups as linked above, except for the Qatar government fund, which donated over half a million dollars to ASMA in 2009.

The fact that the UN has a hand in this really comes as no surprise given that just last week they embraced the Islamic Republic of Iran by allowing them to become a member of The Commission on the Status of Women, as I wrote about in my article "Even if it were a joke, it wouldn't be funny".

Appalling. GET THE UN OUT OF THE U.S. NOW! >:-( New Yorkers, are you all REALLY going to let this happen, 2 blocks from where the WTC towers once stood, and so many innocents were murdered??

Can you imagine visiting the sight to think/reflect about a lost loved one, and hearing what Obama calls 'the most beautiful sound in the world', the Muslim call to prayers several times a day while you remember the horrors of 9/11/01????

THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS.

A mosque at Ground Zero is beyond disgusting. The Muslims have everyone in this country so afraid, no one is objecting to this monstrosity. Here’s my suggestion: if we deport all the Muslim we have already let in, they wont need a mosque to “pray” (translation: spew anti-American and anti-Israeli venom) at. Deport them all. They are enemies in our midst.

“Qatar government fund $576,312”

Our constitutional prohibition on government established religion includes this. Who says it is just OUR nation that cannot fund religion in THIS NATION?

Hilarious. We still haven’t built anything there but soon the muezzin will call out. People wonder why everyone is betting for us to fall this century.

I wonder how many New Yorkers believe that 9-11 was a right wing, Christian, military, CIA, Republican, Bush/Cheney/Halliburton inside job?

Most of the money to be provided for this comes from the US taxpayers. The UN don’t got no money, it’s money comes from the various members, but you ain’t supposed to know this, right???

The 911 Mosque Community Board Meeting May 25 - Be There!

By Pamela Geller

Last week, the finance committee, composed of 12 people, voted unanimously in support the mosque after Imam Rauf and his wife Daisy Khan, made a presentation, no one knew about it, no announcement was made. The matter will now go to the full committee (more than 40 people). The full committee will be meeting on May 25. We need you all to attend to voice your opposition.

CB1 has no legal authority. Their "approval" or disapproval is in no way binding on the matter, but the media will be there and we need to send a message to Rauf, Khan and Mayor Bloomberg: This is wrong. This will do terrible harm to the 9/11 family community.

5/25 CB #1 Monthly Meeting - 6:00 PM
Location: Three Legged Dog Art and Technology Center
80 Greenwich Street (at Rector Street)

Bill Doyle, 911 family member and father of the beloved Joey Doyle,

Plans have been announced to build a mega-mosque and cultural center at 45 Park Avenue, just 600 feet from the footprint of the north tower at the World Trade Center site. The building housed the Burlington Coat Factory, which was reportedly damaged in the attacks and which has stood vacant all these years. It's owners sold the building to Soho Properties for $4.85 million dollars in cash. Yes, CASH. Soho properties CEO Sharif Al-Gamal has not identified the company's other investors, but we know that one of them is Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, founder of the Cordoba Initiative www.cordobainitiative.org. Rauf has ties to Gulf money and has received funding from the Malaysian government, the location of the largest Muslim population in the world. Malaysia embraces shariah law and has separate shariah courts. In January, three Christian churches were fire-bombed after a Catholic newspaper referred to the Christian God as "Allah." Rauf wrote that while this might have been legal, it was "socially inappropriate" because it upset the Muslim community, 60% of the population. He also maintains that the Prophet Mohammed was "the world's first feminist" and that the two biggest myths about Islam was that it promotes terrorism and that it oppresses women. He says the prophet Mohammed was "the world's first feminist." He embraces shariah law and says that it is a benign set of pious rules which are completely compatible with the U.S. Constitution.

Rauf is the imam of the Masjid Al-Farah mosque, a storefront mosque in Tribeca. He and his wife, Daisy Khan, (executive director of the American Society for Muslim Advancement--founded by Rauf) have told the media that the mosque is needed in this location to meet the needs of the Muslim population there. They hope to "grow the Muslim community" in lower Manhattan. They specifically chose this site because of its proximity to ground zero. They want to change the narrative about 9/11. They contend that the 19 hijackers "were not Muslims." They believe building a mosque there would amount to "something positive" coming out of 9/11.

911 Mosque Facts Sheet: Arm Yourself with Facts:

Rauf has stated that the U.S. was complicit in the attacks because of its foreign policy which victimized Muslims. He maintains that terrorism will not end until the U.S. brokers a peace agreement between the Palestinians and Israel and the U.S. stops humiliating Muslims.

Rauf and Khan are saying that:

--the National September 11 Memorial and Museum Foundation has endorsed the plan. ABSOLUTELY FALSE
--Daisy Khan is an "advisor" to the National September 11 Memorial and Museum Foundation. FALSE. There is no formal relationship.
--300 Muslims were killed on 9/11. FALSE; around 20 have been identified. The victims were never identified anywhere by religion unless families did so. There is no evidence that 300 victims were Muslims.
--they are not building a mosque, just a prayer space and a cultural center. FALSE (see the description of Cordoba House here www.cordobainitiative.org; "...the mosque...")

The media incorrectly reported that Community Board 1 "approved" the plan at a meeting on May 5th. In fact, the finance committee, composed of 12 people, voted unanimously in support after Rauf and Khan made a presentation. The matter will now go to the full committee (more than 40 people). The full committee will be meeting on May 25. WE NEED YOU ALL TO ATTEND TO VOICE YOUR OPPOSITION. CB1 has no legal authority. Their "approval" or disapproval is in no way binding on the matter, but the media will be there and we need to send a message to Rauf, Khan and Mayor Bloomberg: this is wrong. This will do terrible harm to the 9/11 family community.

5/25 CB #1 Monthly Meeting - 6:00 PM
Location: Three Legged Dog Art and Technology Center
80 Greenwich Street (at Rector Street)

There will be a rally on June 6 at Ground Zero, specific location to be announced. Please send this info to everyone you know. Updates can be found at www.soia.com

Meanwhile, please write to Mayor Bloomberg to voice your objection. I would remind you that he is Chairman of the National September 11 Memorial Foundation and has donated some $15 million of his own money to the project. The Cordoba House will completely under the effort to preserve the history of 9/11 for future generations.

In my opinion we are an enemy occuppied nation, with the democrat party and its leftist affiliates systematically doing anything possible to destroy the USA.

Think of the the 9-11 Mosque as part of this bigger enemy strategy.
