Haaretz is an ultra-liberal Israeli publication that muslim-kissing liberal protestant clergy (among others) love to read and quote.

I know—I used to be a member of the liberal ELCA Lutheran denomination, until I finally became an Orthodox Christian.

As for whether the radical “Cordoba” group will agree to a new location, we’ll just have to see. I’m skeptical.

There are all too many mosques in NYC as it is now. Many of them are very radical, and have hatched terrorists and terrorism. NYC is the muslims’ target number one in the US.

For those of us (including me) who don’t like NYC very much because of its liberalism and/or New World Order activity: Remember back to September 11, 2001 and the following weeks. Did we not care deeply in our hearts for NYC? Did we not weep for her? Did we not pray and pray? Did we not count ourselves as New Yorkers, at least for a little while?

I want NO MORE jihadist attacks in NYC—never again!!!! And I don’t want that Cordoba mosque built ANYWHERE in America. That’s that!

As of July 2010, 1 WTC's (the Freedom Tower) steel superstructure is 340 feet above ground and is on floor 32 and concrete installation is on floors 26 and 27. As of August 12, One World Trade Center has risen to 34 stories, becoming part of the skyline of New York.

Nope!

Atlas Shrugs - Pamela Geller.

Apparently Haaretz erroneously reported that Imam Rauf, Daisy Khan and the waiter Gamal had shown some mercy and would move the mosque. I never believed it for a second. They have yet to exhibit one scintilla of humanity.

What is interesting is their recent tweets. Look at the last one. They couldn't help themselves: when a Jew is involved, their fangs come down. Islamic antisemitism.

Park51: Correction, we will be publishing an official twitter response to the Haaretz story and the Hamas comments.

Park51: Official: Reports by Haaretz are completely false. We are committed to plans of building Park 51 to serve the community of Lower Manhattan.

Park51: We are also deeply thankful to the President of the United States and the Mayor of New York City for their support.

Park51: Official: Hamas does not and will not speak for Park51. Our mission is one of peace, understanding, tolerance and faith.

Park51: On a side note, if Haaretz likes publishing fables, perhaps they could go back to the Yiddish ones with parables #welikethosebetter

I think their plans were for 2011, at least that is what I remember reading.

Mark my words, there will be no ground breaking for the 9/11 mosque this year

And should there be a ground breaking, every single ounce of dog doo in NYC and suburbs should be deposited in that site to make it unclean. Maybe some endangered maggot species will take root and the Sierra club will join the fight.

I know that dog doo on that site may be offensive to some. But I would much rather have that than America hating POS muzzies planting their f'ing flag on top of our fallen.

Yes, I believe you are correct. Opening the masque in 2011 is a fantasy now, meanwhile the Freedom Tower (1 WTC) is at the 32nd floor or so.......

You said it before I could. But at this point I hope it is not true. I don’t want Obambi and the Dems given an out on this. I want them to state their position on this clearly.

Ha’aretz is a respected Israeli journal.

Maybe it was in exchange for the IDF not blowing up the Iranian enrichment (uranium, not graft).

Maybe they’re going to build the Mosque near ground zero at the pentagon...or maybe on Michelle O’s WH garden; or maybe the crash site in Pennsylvania. Does the president even remember where that last airliner was heading?

Maybe they plan to build it where Tel Aviv will used to be.
