9/11 Ground Zero rally needs help
American Thinker ^ | 9/1/10 | editor's note

Posted on 08/31/2010 11:57:23 PM PDT by American Dream 246

The rally planned for Ground Zero on September 11th, protesting the planned mosque, needs assistance. Jihad Watch explains the situation:

Our rally will be on September 11 at 3PM in lower Manhattan, at the corner of Park Place and West Broadway.

Speakers will include 9/11 family members, former U.S. Ambassador to the UN John Bolton; Dutch freedom fighter Geert Wilders (LIVE!); journalist Andrew Breitbart (either live or via video stream); NY Senate candidate Gary Bernsten; war hero and NC Congressional candidate Ilario Pantano; actress and activist Susan Olsen (Cindy Brady on TV's Brady Bunch); NY Congressional candidate and 9/11 first responder Michael Grimm; Coptic Christian activist Joseph Nassralla; a spokesman for the ACLJ, and other freedom fighters and proud Americans.

Our expenses for this are enormous. The staging and video screen for the speakers who will be joining us remotely costs over $12,000 alone. We also have to hire a large number of security guards: our speakers need to be guarded from the proponents of "tolerance" and "multiculturalism." Both of us have received recent, specific death threats from the supporters of the "moderate" Ground Zero mosque. And we need people patrolling through the crowd, ejecting plants and agitators trying to create an incident that the Leftist media can exploit to tar opponents of the mosque as racists and bigots. We need money for posters, fliers, press releases, food and lodging for speakers, and more.

It's a massive undertaking, and we need your help. Our total expenses for this rally could exceed $50,000. Politico is answering Nancy Pelosi's authoritarian, un-American call to investigate opponents of the mosque, and is nosing around our finances -- all they'll discover is that we have no huge donations, and are relying on the support of free Americans to make this rally a reality. Please consider giving $100. If we could find just 500 people who could each give that amount, we would be able to meet most or all of our expenses. If you can't give $100, please give what you can and what you think this cause warrants. Donations to Jihad Watch will be devoted to the mosque rally, and are tax-deductible.

Make your tax-deductible donation here.

All veterans are requested to work security for this, and to also have a trauma first aid kit available to carry with them...in case.

I am not kidding.

If interested, contact me

If I might add...

The rally seems a superb idea, and I'll bet the attendance exceeds estimates.

I suspect, however, that there could be some muslim plants who either try to provoke violent responses or whatever qualifies as "hate speech" this year.

I hope that there are lots and lots of photographers, from every vantage, and lots of videographers (to prove what a great bunch of folks are in attendance.)

“actress and activist Susan Olsen (Cindy Brady on TV’s Brady Bunch); “

Umm....what? She’s an animal rights/AIDS activist.
