It started out as a joke, but now the muzzies are realizing that it’s hurting their man in the White House. I won’t be surprised if they call it off.

If its true, I wonder how much it cost for the Regime to buy ‘em off?

Since they earlier rejected Gov Patterson’s office of a landswap, without even talking to him, I truly doubt this is accurate.

I agree.

The Muzzies put everything on the line for this big push - The only way they back off is determined resistance by Americans.

Another factor in the apparent climbdown is a lack of funds to pay for construction of the center, estimated to cost a hundred million dollars. Backers hope moving it will lead to a wave of support, accompanied by cash donations."

BS. 100 million is race horse money for elite Saudi and UAE billionaires....

Ya, with taxpayer money and special priviledges that no other group would get, in fact, the contrary, would be denied with extreme prejudice

But several people familiar with the debate among New York's Islamic activists now claim that the leaders are convinced abandoning the site is preferable to unleashing a wave of bitterness towards Muslims. No ---- Sherlock.

Rahm is well connected in Israel and Saudi Arabia. I do not trust anything from Israel anymore due their relationship with the Saudis.

The end result of some panicked phone calls that Obama must have been making to the Saudi Royals on Saturday night. “Guys, you have GOT to get me out of this mess!!”
