Bloomberg’s Ground Zero Mosque Dividend
Human Events ^ | 08/31/2010 | by Robert Spencer

Posted on 08/31/2010 11:09:55 AM PDT by BigFinn

New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg has continued to portray his support for the construction of an Islamic supremacist mega-mosque at Ground Zero as the moral high ground. But Bloomberg may be getting more out of this than just the glow of moral sanctity—billions more, in fact, courtesy his business dealings in Muslim countries.

Once again, if he stood in opposition to the politically-correct media, this would be all they would be talking about.

Instead, most will never hear this perspective on Scumberg's position.

Freepers have known it. Freepers are not sheep. Of course, the MSM will never let this story out.

What is this? A member of the ruling elite taking a public position that is entirely self-serving, and, with the aid of his pals in the main-stream media, trying to make that self-serving position sound like it represents the moral high ground, and that those who oppose it are selfish, bigoted, ignorant, narrow-minded fools?

Why, that's never happened before.

I've been wondering why I haven't seen this reported.

And I wonder how long I'll have to wait to see footage of a reporter sticking a microphone in Hizzoner’s face to ask him about it.

Tick tock

We sure have known it. I posted a thread on it a few weeks back. Tried to get it to go viral and no one would touch it in the media folks that I know to send stuff like this to.

Whenever a liberal assumes the moral side of an issue, always - ALWAYS - follow the money.

What are they afraid of? Are there no more investigative reporters in America? Don’t they want to know the whole story? Sickening.

When you sell out something as important as your country and everyone living in it for money you really won’t ever need, now that’s real greed on an epic scale.

Again, FR was weeks ahead of other media!

The connection was actually 1st posted here on FR over 3 weeks ago with a 2008 online article: Bloomberg makes Dubai a hub {Company of pro "Ground Zero Mosque" Mayor}

It was picked up by only one blogger, The Clarion Advisory, a week ago and that was posted here on FR. (Most of that blogger's info and quotes came from the same 2008 article.)

I was told Savage mentioned this on his show last week and now Human Events and Robert Spencer picks it up.

Let's hope it finally has a wider audience.

Imam Bloomberg is known to have lucrative business connections with Abu Dhabi.

That’s right, Bloomberg is a whore who is only interested in the almighty dollar. Actually, the term whore is too good for him. This mutt would sell out his family, his religion and his city for a buck.
