TV report of hundreds of millions of U.S. tax dollars being spent on the restoration of mosques overseas.


TOPICS: Foreign Affairs; News/Current Events
KEYWORDS: mosques
Someone should start a thread to compile a list of stupid stuff our tax money is wasted on. Like the State Dept. spending almost a billion dollars fixing up old mosques.

My church could use a little stimulus right about now.

How and why is that happening? Meanwhile, a Christian Church destroyed near Ground Zero on 9-11 gets nothing?

So funny you should say that. Before I read your post I did just that. I have to go back and find the headline about how many hundreds of millions of tax dollars are going to fund abortion. Defunding ANY abortion should be at the top of the conservative agenda.

I should add, it is insane to be spending one cent on mosques anywhere, anytime. Meanwhile the panel to curb government waste is meeting AT THE RITZ IN PHOENIX to discuss how to curb government waste!

Well a good start would be to list an expense that you are aware of as long as it can be proven to be true. All of that data can then be scraped and compiled into a list.

* Palestinian aid, $400,000,000.00 pledged by Obama in June, $150,000,000.00 pledged by Clinton in November.

If they renovated a church here in the USA you can bet the ACLU would be all over it.

The only way I could see them getting around that is if they claimed it was a historic landmark, but in such a case it better be used as a museum rather than necessarily a functioning place of worship.

I just found out yesterday that the new Kenyan constitution that a million of our tax dollars went to advertise/lobby for includes sharia. Unbelievable. The only way Obama is getting away with any of this stuff is because there’s so much of it that we can’t catch it all. His tactic is to overwhelm the system with so much illegality that we can’t even get started on one huge thing before he’s already done ten more just as huge. It’s Cloward-Piven on steroids. WE need to stop this maniac so we can go back and undo all the damage.

“I just found out yesterday that the new Kenyan constitution that a million of our tax dollars went to advertise/lobby for includes sharia.”

Not to mention the fact that it is extremely pro-abortion!!!!!!!!

Right. And that’s what has gotten the focus. But to actually lobby for a constitution that has sharia embedded in it is way beyond even the abortion issue. This is US money pushing to replace a foreign country’s religiously-neutral constitution with one that gives a foundation for the nation to become an Islamic state.

When Obama told the Egyptian ambassador that he was and still is a Muslim who supports the Muslim agenda and that he had to focus on some domestic issues (healthcare, cap and tax - all the stuff needed to destroy America) and then he would focus on the Islamic agenda, he meant it.

He managed to secure a way to funnel our tax money into building and repairing mosques abroad, instituting sharia in places like Kenya which are critical in our battle against Islamic terrorism, and he managed a way to allow Hamas and Hezbollah operatives to waltz into our country without risk of being stopped by law enforcement. So now he’s implementing those things.

This guy is DANGEROUS. There is no way anybody of sound mind can look at what he’s done, what he’s said, and the connections he’s had, and conclude anything but that he meant what he told the Egyptian ambassador. Apparently he’s much more honest with the Muzzies than he is with the people he’s practicing taqiyya on.

I actually almost wonder if they campaigned for the abortion thing in Kenya so people would focus on that rather than on the even bigger problem - that our tax dollars went to institute sharia in the country bordering Somalia, the seed-bed of a LOT of Islamic terrorism.
