We Muslims know the Ground Zero mosque is meant to be a deliberate provocation

Mischief in Manhattan
By Raheel Raza and Tarek Fatah, Citizen Special August 7, 2010

Last week, a journalist who writes for the North Country Times, a small newspaper in Southern California, sent us an e-mail titled "Help." He couldn't understand why an Islamic Centre in an area where Adam Gadahn, Osama bin Laden's American spokesman came from, and that was home to three of the 911 terrorists, was looking to expand.

The man has a very valid point, which leads to the ongoing debate about building a Mosque at Ground Zero in New York. When we try to understand the reasoning behind building a mosque at the epicentre of the worst-ever attack on the U.S., we wonder why its proponents don't build a monument to those who died in the attack?

New York currently boasts at least 30 mosques so it's not as if there is pressing need to find space for worshippers. The fact we Muslims know the idea behind the Ground Zero mosque is meant to be a deliberate provocation to thumb our noses at the infidel. The proposal has been made in bad faith and in Islamic parlance, such an act is referred to as "Fitna," meaning "mischief-making" that is clearly forbidden in the Koran.

The Koran commands Muslims to, "Be considerate when you debate with the People of the Book" -- i.e., Jews and Christians. Building an exclusive place of worship for Muslims at the place where Muslims killed thousands of New Yorkers is not being considerate or sensitive, it is undoubtedly an act of "fitna"

So what gives Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf of the "Cordoba Initiative" and his cohorts the misplaced idea that they will increase tolerance for Muslims by brazenly displaying their own intolerance in this case?

Do they not understand that building a mosque at Ground Zero is equivalent to permitting a Serbian Orthodox church near the killing fields of Srebrenica where 8,000 Muslim men and boys were slaughtered?

There are many questions that we would like to ask. Questions about where the funding is coming from? If this mosque is being funded by Saudi sources, then it is an even bigger slap in the face of Americans, as nine of the jihadis in the Twin Tower calamity were Saudis.

If Rauf is serious about building bridges, then he could have dedicated space in this so-called community centre to a church and synagogue, but he did not. We passed on this message to him through a mutual Saudi friend, but received no answer. He could have proposed a memorial to the 9/11 dead with a denouncement of the doctrine of armed jihad, but he chose not to.

It's a repugnant thought that $100 million would be brought into the United States rather than be directed at dying and needy Muslims in Darfur or Pakistan.

Let's not forget that a mosque is an exclusive place of worship for Muslims and not an inviting community centre. Most Americans are wary of mosques due to the hard core rhetoric that is used in pulpits. And rightly so. As Muslims we are dismayed that our co-religionists have such little consideration for their fellow citizens and wish to rub salt in their wounds and pretend they are applying a balm to sooth the pain.

The Koran implores Muslims to speak the truth, even if it hurts the one who utters the truth. Today we speak the truth, knowing very well Muslims have forgotten this crucial injunction from Allah.

If this mosque does get built, it will forever be a lightning rod for those who have little room for Muslims or Islam in the U.S. We simply cannot understand why on Earth the traditional leadership of America's Muslims would not realize their folly and back out in an act of goodwill.

As for those teary-eyed, bleeding-heart liberals such as New York mayor Michael Bloomberg and much of the media, who are blind to the Islamist agenda in North America, we understand their goodwill.

Unfortunately for us, their stand is based on ignorance and guilt, and they will never in their lives have to face the tyranny of Islamism that targets, kills and maims Muslims worldwide, and is using liberalism itself to destroy liberal secular democratic societies from within.

The funny thing is that, despite all his Muslim pandering, his numbers are even further in the tank in the Muslim world than they were a year ago. Nothing short of submitting to Sharia will please those people.

They want him to bomb Israel, nothing short of that will suffice.

Their list of grievances with the western world is 5,000 miles long. After that happened they would just move on down the list. They will not be satisfied until they subjugate us. That, after all, is the goal of Islam as dictated by the Koran, their infallible holy book.

And 240  -  says he is sick of religious stories.      

The 150 posts he logs every day about Palin are much better.

Haha, yet we're supposed to let them build this mosque to "prove" our tolerance towards Muslims. 

Cue Jag to put up some moronic justification.

Daisy Khan, wife of the snake heading this project up, has said that this mosque will help non-Muslims to integrate and not the other way around. Integrate into what? Why, integrate into Sharia Law, of course.

It only took them 9 years to shut down Hamburg mosque where 9/11 plotter Atta worshiped

Incredibly, the city authorities even admit it was operating as a radical recruitment center for terrorists in the intervening decade.

The New York Times:


The authorities in Hamburg said Monday that they had shut down the mosque there where several of the hijackers involved in the Sept. 11 attacks had met because it remained a source of radicalization nearly a decade later.

The Masjid Taiba mosque, known at the time of the hijackings in 2001 as Al Quds mosque, was "closed effective immediately," according to a statement by the Hamburg Interior Ministry.
The mosque's closing came after a group of radicalized young people associated with the mosque, most of whom were German citizens with roots in Muslim countries, traveled last year to the border region between Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Police searched the mosque and the apartments of leading members starting at 6 a.m., and seized the group's assets. Photographs published on the Web site of the daily newspaper Hamburger Abendblatt showed police carrying computers out of the mosque in Hamburg's St. Georg neighborhood.


This is not unusual in Germany. If you read John Rosenthal's work on the German government's extraordinary laxity in policing radical islamists in their own country, you know that they bend over backwards to accommodate terrorists in their midst. The fact  that it has taken them nearly a decade to shut down a mosque that radicalized the 9/11 plotters makes sense in that context.

How many more terrorists were created because of the stupidity of the Germans? Let's hope we never find out.
