The developers behind the Islamic center planned for a site near Ground Zero won't rule out accepting financing from the Mideast -- including from Saudi Arabia and Iran -- as they begin searching for $100 million needed to build the project.

When asked if they would then turn to foreign donors, Sultan replied, "I can't comment on that."

Pressed on whether the developers were willilng rule out accepting donations from the governments of Saudi Arabia or Iran, he repeated, "I can't comment on that."

Imam Faisal Abdul Rauf, chairman of the Cordoba Initiative, the cultural organization behind the mosque is currently on a federally funded State Department tour of the Middle East, visiting Bahrain, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.

Is anyone surprised?

Nancy Pelosi should investigate the fundraising for the Mosque, instead of wanting to investigate those who oppose it, which is 70% of the American people.

The Saudi State funds the expansion of Islam in the West. This is a violation of our Constitutional prohibition on theocratic rule. The Saudis are establishing Islamic colonies, not “cultural exchange centers”. There is ZERO tolerance for non-muslim faiths in Saudi Arabia.

Wouldn’t taking money from Iran be illegal? Violating the existing sanctions?

The day they cut the ribbon on this atrocity, Al Jezeera will air a tape of Osama Bin Laden congratulating the victory.

Antagonism. It’s all about antagonizing Christians, Jews, and the West.

City Bank is owned by Saudis. They empty all their Petro-Dollars in US for most part, hence the “special” relationship and all the fancy weapon systems are sold to them. Iran is another issue. Either way, this won’t be the first American Entity to accept funds from SA. Just to put things in context.

Sacajaweau, FRiend, as the leader of the United States of America, the current President has already written and signed a check now on deposit.

Life imitates art, when:

Death Care
Debt Crush
Dollar devaluation
De-development of the US of A and

Shar’ia

start MAKING Americans real-life actors in a “SAW, US: the Reality Country”

0bama DID say he wanted American women to get as many abortions as they wanted, remember? Consider this a two-fer. One for sexual freedom, one for population ‘control.’

Courtesy of Imam 0bama.

He has SIGNED OVER the lives of Americans as pledge. And, by law, our blood is on our own hands on deposit in Saudi, Chinese, Russian, Iranian and Soros/Bilderberger banks.

You could not WRITE a better script than to serve Islam by having an entire nation commit its own blood to the cause of Islam. Submit or die BY YOUR OWN HAND.

These evil people will abide by no laws to further their cause. No one should be surprised.

This is a huge game the international elites like to play. If they can use America’s laws against itself then they win. If not, no great loss.

These people need to be stopped by enormous masses of American citizens telling them precisely where to go.

You are so right. The more I read about Islam....not “radical Islam”...the more I believe Islam is Satanic.
