Mosque Used by 9/11 Attackers Shut Down

BERLIN -- A Hamburg mosque once frequented by some of the Sept. 11 attackers was shut down Monday because German authorities believe the prayer house was again being used as a meeting point for Islamic radicals.

The Taiba mosque was closed and the cultural association that runs it was banned, Hamburg officials said in a statement.

"We have closed the mosque because it was a recruiting and meeting point for Islamic radicals who wanted to participate in so-called jihad or holy war," said Frank Reschreiter, a spokesman for Hamburg's state interior ministry.

He said that 20 police officers were searching the building and had confiscated material, including several computers. He was not aware of any arrests.

Authorities have said the prayer house, formerly known as the al-Quds mosque, years ago was a meeting and recruiting point for some of the Sept. 11 attackers before they moved to the United States.

3 of the 4 9/11 pilots met each other there. It should have been closed on 9/12.

------------------------

I agree with that


He's beyond contempt.

If it's built, Bloomturd should live across the street for a few months so he can listen to the calls to prayer 5 times a day.

The president's strategy is absolutely clear about the threat we face. Our enemy is not terrorism because terrorism is but a tactic. Our enemy is not terror because terror is a state of mind and, as Americans, we refuse to live in fear. Nor do we describe our enemy as jihadists or Islamists because jihad is holy struggle, a legitimate tenet of Islam meaning to purify oneself or one's community."
               -- May 26, 2010, John Brennan, Assistant to the President and Deputy
                  National Security Adviser for Homeland Security

Lets be realistic. Another totally different Islamic group will petition the state to allow them the facility...and they probably will get it within twelve months.

This group who lost their mosque? They will quietly move over to another mosque in the region within hours. Recruitment will continue on.

The only plus side of this deal is that once you close one mosque...it really makes it easier to close a second, a third and so on. And you could imagine a fairly competent intelligence service now operating quietly and collecting data on a hour-by-hour basis.

No problem. They can always move to New York and build a new mosque there.

Would that Michael Bloomberg could see things that way.

Bloomberg is a liberal, self-hating Jew and will learn no lesson from the closing of the mosque used by the 9/11 atackers. He is a sorry excuse for a human being.
