To the NYC Mosque Supporters

Dear Liberals:

There has been a lot of uproar lately over a proposed mosque to be built near the sacred ground forever known as Ground Zero. You know, the same place where over 3,000 innocent people were burned, crushed, and jumped to a certain death after 19 jihadists decided to declare war on Western civilization. While most sensible people see this as an insult to what those who died on September 11, 2001, there are those of you in the 'Kumbaya' crowd who seem hell bent on making sure that the mosque is built in the name of 'tolerance'.

Do you not realize exactly what this would do to the memory of those who died? Or do you not care? Yes, our Constitution does allow freedom of religion (not freedom FROM religion). No one is saying that a mosque cannot be built anywhere else. But why build it at Ground Zero to serve as a sort of memorial to those who took so many lives because of the way we Americans live? It is the same twisted logic that has islamic symbolism being built into the Flight 93 memorial here in Pennsylvania.

You speak of tolerance and acceptance. Americans have always been accepting and tolerant of those who come to this country to become citizens and enjoy the freedoms granted to us by God. Those who perpetrated the horrific acts on 9/11 were not tolerant or accepting of the principles this country was founded on. Why is it that people who have a problem with the location of this particular mosque are labeled as intolerant? Just as you say you have the right to erect this mosque at Ground Zero, we who disagree with the idea are just as free to voice our opinions against it. The Constitution does not include the right to not be offended by an opposing view.

Here's a suggestion and maybe some food for thought while you're sipping your lattes or bowing five times a day: How about opening up the cities of Mecca and Medina to us 'infidels' (as we non-muslims are called)? From my understanding, only muslims are allowed within these cities, so why not show us how tolerant and truly peace-loving muslims are by doing this? After all, the left is constantly saying just how peaceful and tolerant islam is, so why not put your money (dollars and riyals) where your mouth is? Open up the damned cities to everyone.

Should those of you who support the idea of this mosque win out and the mosque is built on sacred ground, rest assured that it will be just another log thrown on the fire that was ignited in the hearts of those who love this country on 9/11/2001. And we will NEVER forget all the affronts made to desecrate the memory of the innocents since...including this one.

May God continue to bless this great nation and all who love the freedom it affords.

Mosque to be Built Near Ground Zero

While New York City is still slated to host the trial of 9/11 planner and scumbag extraordinaire, Khalid Sheik Mohammed, Gateway Pundit is now reporting that a mysterious group has purchased a building adjacent to Ground Zero with the hopes of turning the building into a mosque. Should the plan go through, it will be one of the biggest mosques in NYC.

The old Burlington Coat Factory building already serves as a place where some muslims pray and worship. With 55,000 square feet of air rights, the plan is to turn it into something that is supposed to resemble the local YMCA. Funny...last time I was at the YMCA, I didn't see anyone strapping on a bomb belt. But I digress...

The imam of this mini-mosque, Feisal Abdul Rauf, told the New York Times that he hopes to spend $150 million to turn it into ‘’an Islamic center near the city’s most hallowed piece of land that would stand as one of ground zero’s more unexpected and striking neighbors.’’ Striking? As in striking U.S. targets? What a wienie!

Records show that the 60-year-old imam paid $4.85 million for the building -- IN CASH. The additional funding Rauf has allegedly secured comes from unknown sources, although many of the mosques across the country are funded either directly or indirectly by Saudi Arabia. This is the nation that spawned 15 of the 19 murderers who killed almost 3,000 innocent people on 9/11.

I would love to know who sold the building because it appears that they also sold their soul. While I embrace capitalism, there are some things you just don't do for money. And I suggest that building a mosque next to sacred ground where innocent people were slaughtered by a bunch of jihadists is one of those things.

Let's remember exactly what they did that day.
