No, they just flew in guys to film it.
Guys who incidently were cheering & high 5'ing each other as the buildings collapsed.

I really don't think Americans should worry about a slap in the face,
when it's so bloody obvious they've been horsekicked in the head!

Jag this is incredable.
Arab extremests planned this carried it out and then took full responisbilty for it.
But later when it becomes a liability just blame the Jews.................... .. WOW

Is this true?

NO FEDERAL FUNDS FOR GROUND ZERO MOSQUE
By Dick Morris And Eileen McGann 08.29.2011

The ground zero mosque, called Park 51, has applied for a $5 million grant of federal funds from the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation. The Corporation, set up to rebuild lower Manhattan after 9-11 is actively considering the grant request. Imagine! A federal entity set up to rebuild lower Manhattan giving tax money to a mosque designed to celebrate the attacks that killed 3,000 Americans!

The ground zero mosque will offer courses in Shariah Law and will doubtless spawn hundreds of new terrorists eager to pick up where the 9-11 hijackers left off.

Officially, the federal funds would not go to religious activities, but to “fund social service programs for all the residents of Lower Manhattan such as domestic violence prevention, Arabic and other foreign language classes, programs and services for homeless veterans, two multi-cultural art exhibits and immigration services,” according to its grant application.

he sponsors of the mosque have no business rubbing the noses of the victims’ families in the dirt by building the mosque right next to the site of 9-11. But there is especially no justification for using our tax money to make it possible.

Please CLICK HERE to sign an online petition to the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation to urge them to refuse the grant request! Keep some sense of proportion and decency!

Do ALL mosques spawn hundreds of new terrorists?

Or just this one?

Will it actually say "Mosque designed to celebrate the deaths of 3000 americans" on a entry sign? Seems it could be catchier than that..

The thing is very audacious and gaudy. However, from my visits to GZ lately - Freedom tower is MASSIVE.

The thing is going to be freaking HUGE! So - this stupid ass mosque - which i dont think will ever go up, will be dwarfed into meaninglessness by the sheer force of Freedom Tower.

I live in NYC and was at GZ three days after it happened and saw the smoldering ashes and smelled the stench of death and destruction.

Fuck off.

Is Debbie Wasserman Schultz a bigot: The latest bigot has self-identified. She poured her filth into the national discourse on last evening’s Larry King Live.

The bigot in question is Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a Democrat from Florida. After speaking with other panelists, King sought her view about the mosque which pretty much isn’t a mosque:

KING (8/24/10): Congresswoman Schultz, do you think that Muslim situation in New York will be a national issue?

SCHULTZ: I really don't think it will be a national issue. I think what it boils down to is—it is a case of, just because you can doesn't mean you should. I think the leadership of the mosque and that Muslim community in that area of New York City would be well served to sit down with the leadership in New York and in that community, and work together to build some consensus on an alternative site.

Of course just because you can doesn't mean you should. I don't think the mosque will spawn a bunch of terrorists, nor do I think it will be a place where they hold banquets and celebrate the destruction of the towers and the deaths. But I DO think they should be sensitive enough to the situation to consider other locations.

Agree for the most part. I don't think they have the "right" to build a mosque wherever they want, but even if they did have the right to build it at or near Ground Zero, they shouldn't. I can't imagine most charitable organizations would try and force something like this down the public's throat. Speaks volumes about their motives IMO.

The Constitution says they can. It's a really a no-brainer. End of discussion. Whether it is smart to do so is another issue entirely.

1st Amendment.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

What it doesn't say is a mosque or church can be built anyplace the religious organization wants. Otherwise, zoning laws would be unconstitutional. In most, if not all, communities, churches can be built only where the government says they can be built. Same with schools, stores, strip clubs, houses, etc.

There is nothing in the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment that will stop those folks from practicing their religion if they are allowed to build in at an alternative site.

I always wonder if someone said you couldn't build a Baptist church on that site, what would the same people say about that?

I'm sure that since it's a discussion point they would say that it would be fine, but in reality, if a baptist tried to put a Baptist church there and was told they could not... They would raise holy hell.
