The US President backs the building of ground zero mosque!
I am shocked!
Oh, wait what was his middle name?
You know, the middle name that no one was supposed to mention?
Can you imagine any US president (other than this one) defending the right of the Japanese to build a buddhist temple two blocks away from Pearl
Harbor?
And that temple scheduled its opening date on Dec 7, 1951?
It is ironic that they are closing the mosque in Hamburg used in 9/11 but there is another one lined up for 2011 two blocks away form ground zero.
Well, win some, loose some, I suppose.
Does that mean that they won't crash planes, try to blow parked vehicles anymore, now that there will be a mosque at the site?
I bet Obama can really get the muslim vote for 2012 if he promises a muslim sector of New York. Decorated with walls, godlen domes, security guards,
just like in Jerusalem.
What does it have to happen in order for us to hear these words from our leaders:
"Hamburg must not and will not become a cradle of violent Islamists," said Christoph Ahlhaus, Hamburg's interior minister.
"We closed the Taiba mosque because young men were being converted to religious fanatics there. A purported cultural association shamelessly
exploited the freedoms of our democratic state under the rule of law to recruit for holy war behind the scenes. This cannot be tolerated.
"We have finally put an end to the spectre behind its walls. The association which ran it continuously promoted jihadist, aggressive and
anti-democratic ideology and religious views."
German 9/11 mosque closed
Just for refernce, there is a buddhist temple in Hawaii but is not anywhere near the Harbor.
