From her link here is the caption from under the referenced photo: "St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church on Sept. 11, 2001, minutes before it was crushed by the falling south tower. Seven years later, the Port Authority and the church have failed to agree on a land swap needed for rebuilding. " I highlighted the detail about the Port Authority to draw attention to a Fox Report:Company Bidding to Help Manage Ground Zero Tower Has Arab Ties

Nearly nine years after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, the bi-state agency that operates the World Trade Center is looking for a private partner to help manage the 1,776-foot office tower that is being built at Ground Zero - and one of two companies under consideration may have ties to the Middle East.

The bidding process for private partners for the "Freedom Tower" has been whittled down to two companies: Durst Organization and Related Companies, Fox News legal analyst Peter Johnson Jr. reports.

The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey will soon decide which partner will manage and help market the tower, which has been renamed One World Trade Center. The partner will invest at least $100 million into the office tower and memorial building.

Related Cos. is an international real estate group whose investors include Goldman Sachs; MSD Capital, LP; Mubadala Development Co.; Kuwait Investment Authority; and Olayan Group, according to the company's website. Mubadala Development Co. is owned by the Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, government.

Johnson reports that Related Cos. is involved in a joint project with the UAE-backed company, which is chaired by the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi. Johnson said Related Cos. also has ties to the Saudi Arabian royal family and to financiers based in Dubai.

Fifteen of the Sept. 11 hijackers were from Saudi Arabia and two were from the United Arab Emirates, Johnson noted on Fox & Friends Monday morning.

The Saudi Arabian royal family, which the U.S. considers its ally in the war on terror, has been accused of bankrolling the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

The construction of the Freedom Tower has been repeatedly stalled by financial and partnership issues, among other problems. The site developer and the Port Authority reached an agreement in recent weeks that is expected to put the project back on track.

The Port Authority board will meet with the two finalists in the coming weeks and is expected to make its decision by June 22, the Wall Street Journal reported.

Bin Laden/Al Qaeda Funding Ground Zero Mosque Imam Rauf

So, we have here collusion with ME financial interests with ties to the Bin Laden group, taking control of both the rebuilding of the trade center and the so called 'Cordoba Initiative'.

How difficult is it to build or repair a church in Muslim majority nations? Answer: Very. Yet Bloomberg and company would have concerned citizens believe ME financial interests potentially controlling these sites is of no concern.

After connecting these dots, is it any wonder why the St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church continues to sit in bureaucratic limbo (sharia influence?)?
