Mosque big owes 224G tax

The mosque developers are tax deadbeats.
Sharif El-Gamal, the leading organizer behind the mosque and community center near Ground Zero, owes $224,270.77 in back property tax on the site, city records show.
El-Gamal's company, 45 Park Place Partners, failed to pay its half-yearly bills in January and July, according to the city Finance Department.
The delinquency is a possible violation of El-Gamal's lease with Con Edison, which owns half of the proposed building site on Park Place. El-Gamal owns the other half but must pay taxes on the entire parcel.
The lease agreement, obtained by The Post, specifies that El-Gamal's company pay taxes on the property and submit receipts to Con Ed.
The utility said it would have to review any possible lease violations.
The late taxes are the latest wrinkle in the controversial plan to put the 15-story mosque near the World Trade Center site.
Before any building can go forward, the developers also must get approval from the MTA because the 2 and 3 subway lines run under a portion of the Park Place property, The Post has learned.
El-Gamal's spokesperson insisted to The Post that the taxes had been paid and that the "subway lines do not pose a problem."
El-Gamal plans to tear down the two buildings on the Park Place site, which housed a Burlington Coat Factory store but have been empty since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, when one was damaged.
The Post revealed this month that El-Gamal owned only half the site. Gamal purchased the lease to the Con Ed property for $700,000 last year when he bought the other building on the site for $4.8 million.
He has told Con Ed he wants to buy the building at 49-51 Park Place, which Con Ed is appraising to determine fair market value.
El-Gamal insisted to The Post that the lease permitted him to demolish the property at any time.
But the lease agreement says El-Gamal must provide Con Ed with a copy of a financing commitment or other proof that money is available to "cover the estimated cost of demolition of the building and construction of the new building."

Hahahaha, yet another strike against these fucktards. Pretty obvious there's some hidden agenda behind this mosque as that would explain why these dirtbags are getting so many free passes.

He also was busted for soliciting a prostitute and beating up a tenant.

Australian officials aren't letting Hogan beyond the country's borders until he pays taxes that the Australian Tax Office says he owes on $38 million Australian dollars ($34 million in U.S. currency) in undisclosed income. The exact tax bill has not been disclosed.
Hogan is alleged to have used offshore bank accounts to conceal earnings.

The most ironic is probably someone you never heard of. His name is Joseph Nunan. He was the IRS commissioner from 1944-47.
In 1952, he was busted for evading taxes. It turned out that Nunan had won a $1,800 bet that Harry Truman would win the presidential election but failed to report his winnings to the IRS.

I guess alot of people have had encounters with the tax man. This imam is not special.

What about soliciting a prostitute and beating up a tenant?

Why is the dumb bitch with the lazy eye and lack of education justifying her Muslim brethren's tax delinquency by posting celebrity tax debts? Let me clue you in on something; no one gives a fuck. :D
Wesley Snipes owed taxes, too. Guess what, he's doing jail time. Perhaps Gamal should lose his building.

You obviously do, ...or you wouldn't have posted a thread about it.

Snipes was sentenced last year to three years in prison following his conviction on three misdemeanor tax charges. He is free on bail while appealing his conviction.

Charlie Sheen
::) ::)
Please.

Wrong. He was talking about tolerant, peaceful Sharif El-Gamal, who has an arrest record most career criminals would be envious of. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Someone suffers from severe reading comprehension issues. My thread was about Sharif El-Gamal and the GZM, not Hollywood celebrities who are insignificant, not special and definitely not relevant to this topic, googly-eyes.
You really are one dumb bitch.

::) ::)
Please.
Are you saying he's never solicited a prostitute?
Not only did he almost single-handedly keep Heidi Fleiss's girls in business, he's also on record as saying 911 was an inside job, ...and we know how affectionate he's been with Denise, as well as his current wife.

He was talking about Sharif El-Gamal. This thread has nothing to do with Hollywood and your attempts to derail it will not succeed, googly-eyes.
This is yet another shady aspect in a long line of them that has come out about this mosque and the people building it.

What does Sheen have to do with anything? stop lying, stop diverting, and stop knee padding this crap.

You're the one who brought up the solicitation of prostitutes and assault.
If there was a definition for "john" in the dictionary, Charlie Sheen's picture would be right next to it.

Please, give it up. Sheen has nothing to do with this.

This is Jag displaying great Muslim debate tactics. Discredit, deflect, divert and deny.
She's doing everything she can to derail and bury this thread. She should really stick to talking about wanting to commit mass murder of evangelical Christians.

What about soliciting a prostitute and beating up a women tenant?
Muslims can do that...It states in the Koran

Lies. Islam is tolerant of women.

‘I REGRET MANY THINGS I DID’
“I regret many things that I did in my youth. I have not always led a perfect life,” El-Gamal, 37, said in a statement.
Sharif’s most recent arrest was in Sept. 2005, when he allegedly punched a former tenant in the face, breaking his nose and cheekbones.
The victim, Mark Vassiliev, was a barber who had sublet a Manhattan apartment from El-Gamal’s brother, Sammy. When Vassiliev fell behind on a rent payment, the El-Gamal brothers and a third man went to his apartment and brutally beat him.
When he was arrested, Sharif denied the attack, saying, “I am in real estate. I’m rich. Why would I do this? Why would I jeopardize my career?” He later conceded in court papers that “[Vassiliev's] face could have run into my hand.”
Vassiliev eventually received a settlement of $15,000 from El-Gamal after suing him in criminal and civil court.
Interestingly, El-Gamal claimed in 2008 court documents that his only asset was a $1.1 million Upper West Side apartment he co-owned with his wife. Yet somehow, he was later able to secure a $39 million mortgage to buy a downtown commercial building.

The guy's a career criminal and obviously being bankrolled by some shady, shady individuals. Yet the sheep keep claiming that there's nothing wrong here. ::)

Yeah, I'm sure if a church was being placed at Tillers' death site by a convicted pedophile everyone would be all supportibve of the preists' rights. ::) ::)

Spiritual hypocrisy. It exists in Islam. It can't be denied.

Typical leftist, apologist tactic from Jag. Point out the wrongs of others as if that has anything to do with the thread.

The leftists have nothing else to go off of. They've spent weeks denying, denying, denying and yet more and more shady shit on this guy keeps pouring out. They've failed miserably in their attempts to sway public opinion on this mosque and have now been reduced to making excuses for these people's transgressions. Quite amusing.

After all is said and done, we are going to be proven right on this one.
