After weeks of heated debate over plans for an Islamic community center near Ground Zero - the site of the 9/11 attacks on New York - it seems Muslim leaders will soon back down, agreeing to move to a new site. ...

"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."

If this is true -- and it seems to be nothing more than a rumor so far -- it may be that the project was too controversial for Hamas, but perfectly OK with Obama. Think about that for a second.

I’m skeptical, too...but keep in mind that Obama wasn’t in a heap of trouble when Patterson made his offer.

Just heard on the radio that Harry Reid is against the mosque.

Polls must be tightening!

Even if this is true, it changes nothing because Obama has taken the side of Islam and Islamic terrorists rather than America over building the 9/11 VICTORY Mosque.

On Friday he told the Muslims he had gathered in the PEOPLES house, along with the entire world which side he is really on in the war on terror = America or Islam. He made his choice and sided with Islam over America and told us all that he approves of the MUSLIM 9/11 VICTORY Mosque, that He DOES NOT OBJECT TO IT and that he wants it built at the site of Islam's victory over America. HIS ADMINISTRATION, HIS STATE DEPARTMENT is spending OUR TAXPAYER MONEY TO SEND THE IMAM WHO IS HELL-BENT ON BUILDING THIS MONSTROSITY ALL OVER THE

I S L A M I C WORLD

TO RAISE MONEY TO BUILD THE 9/11 VICTORY MOSQUE AT GROUND ZERO IN ORDER TO HUMILIATE ALL OF AMERICA! (The Imam is still there, rasing money! He will NOW just use it for SOME OTHER ANTI-AMERICAN ACTIVITIES.)

The words Obama said on Friday in support of this abomination he agreed to and proclaimed before all of those assembled and before the entire world OF HIS OWN FREE WILL.

Obama is nothing but a liar following Satan, the Father of lies! He is not to be trusted, he is to be opposed and no matter what the "White House" says, we must all remember that according to taqqiya it is completely "kosher" in Islam for Muslims to LIE in order to deceive those who do not follow Islam = i.e., the "infidels", in order to gain your ultimate ends of conquest and total subjugation. That is exactly what Obama the closet Marxist Muslim is doing = lying in order to deceive America and Americans.

The problem is this; with his statement on Friday Obama COMPLETELY and PERMANENTLY BROKE FAITH WITH THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA! He once and for all told America and the World exactly which side he is on: He supports Islam and the enemies of the United States both at home and abroad. We have him speaking these words, on video. He can lie and obfuscate and try to "backpedal" all he wants, but it is too late, HE CAN NOT UNDO WHAT HE HAS SAID AND DONE:

Obama didn't just "spit it the eye of America;" he pulled down his pants in front of the entire country and world, squatted on the hallowed 9/11/01 Ground Zero site and took a huge PUBLIC DUMP UPON GROUND ZERO AND UPON ALL OF AMERICA! After he was done, he got up, pulled up his pants, smiled, his narcissistic smile at the camera and said: "This is where I stand regarding America, Islam and Ground Zero."

Obama is Satan's servant = totally anti-American, anti-Semitic and filled with the spirit of antichrist.

It says “it seems Muslim leaders will soon back down.”

Seems. I wouldn’t call that news at all.

No doubt Obama orchestrated this. I wonder what this will wind up costing American in the next couple of years.

Literally “the cap,” it’s an Islamic concept in which a believer is allowed to pretend to be an infidel if it will serve the cause of advancing Isalm or help him avoid persecution. The person who put that keyword in was probably referring to Obama.

@Park51: There is no truth to the Haaretz story. It is wholly incorrect. We will be publishing a press release regarding this shortly.

Park 51 is the Twitter name for the Cordoba Project

Omoslem got the weekend poll results on this.

It’s only Monday. That must’ve been some serious fury by REAL Americans. Against that scum-sucking dirty moslem traitor commie and his merry band of koranimals.

Yes, it’s true. You’re even allowed to pretend to be an infidel if it will advance Islam or save you from major persecution.

Sounds like a ruse.
I would trust the Muslims about as much as the Nigerian prince who needs to move his $20 million with my help.
Maybe they are looking for a closer place to Ground Zero, just to be more in-your-face...

Ooh, hadn’t thought of that Hiroshima example! Talk about hitting the libs where they live!

Or how about this one: A U.S. Cavalry museum at Wounded Knee. You know, to build bridges.

Nitpicking here, but it says “community center”, not “Mosque at ground zero”.

Wondering if they are still going to build a mosque.
