Why is a muslim community center, which includes a mosque, being allowed to be built next to ground zero? The Imam that is heading up this project has ties to the Muslim Brotherhood whose mission statment is to eliminate and destroy western civilization from within. Not only that, but this Imam is advocating equal justices for religions; another words the Constitution wouldn’t apply to muslims living in America, sharia law would apply.
Oh year, the opening date for the community center / mosque would be 9/11. WTF?
Let them build it. Let them celebrate its opening on 9/11. Let them all get their butts kicked. Let them rebuild it after it is blown up or burned to the ground.
I’m not advocating violence, but if they invite it upon themselves then they shouldn’t ask why it happened.
It’s a private organization purchasing private land with private money in a country with strong protections for free practice of religion and protection of private property.
Beck suddenly has to quit his “founding father” act when it’s not convenient for him. I wonder what Rand Paul would say.
The stuff about the Muslim Brotherhood is pure fear-mongering. Do independent research on the group.
From the CNN article:
Herbert Ouida, whose son was killed in the attacks, supports the project as a way to bridge cultural divide.
“I understand the anger, the bitterness and hatred, but it only generates more hatred,” Ouida said. “Such a large part of the world has this faith, and to say anyone who has this faith is a terrorist, it’s terrible.”

While that’s a valid statement I question the motives of those who would choose to build there.
I’ll wager that a bit of research will find that the principals in the building “movement” aren’t exactly pure, and that their intentions aren’t inline with mainstream American mores, regradless of their religion of choice.

The best Beck could do - with his crack team of elite researchers - is a link to one of their fathers to a group which promotes change through non-violent participation in the political processes of existing modern states. A group that was denounced by Al Qaeda for abandoning change-through-jihad. That’s just not that scary to me.
The way I see it is that Islam isn’t going anywhere soon. In the U.S. or around the world. And within Islam there are factions competing to recruit young practitioners. Good factions and bad factions. It’s in our own best interest to allow the good ones to practice freely and win that recruitment battle. Because Muslims themselves are the first line of defense against extremists. This group in NYC is, by all available information, peaceful. They actively denounce violence, even among those who want the U.S. to recognize sharia law, etc. If we persecute this group (ignoring constitutional issues for the moment) - a group that’s basically saying, “We’re Americans too, and we’re standing with you against extremists,” it leaves a void that can be filled by other, far more dangerous, voices…
