Mosques and Islamic centers are proliferating across America
Americanthinker ^

Posted on 08/11/2026 8:13:31 AM PDT by DIRTYSECRET

You might ask what the problem is, since the United States celebrates freedom of religion. The problem with Islam is that it not only promotes a religion, but also its followers often support political Islam and its spread worldwide, particularly sharia law.

Despite our concerns, most states have not been able to figure out how to legally ban the construction of these Islamic Centers:

A good number of Americans went stupid not long after 09/11/2001 and went right back to sleep 😴😴😴 - ESPECIALLY in NYC 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♂️🤦

This is yet ANOTHER wake-up call

Keep voting Democrat Stupid, Leftist Dhimmi Dummies 🤦🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️

AI Overview:

About 99% of the population in Morocco is Muslim.

Almost all of these practicing Muslims belong to the Sunni branch of Islam.

Do about it?

How about nothing?

If some Muslim decides to BREAK THE LAW, then prosecute and jail them.


But do NOT throw out a foundational tenet just to stop Islam.

Dems are doing all they can to turn America into a communist, socialist state.

While Christians are doing very little to advance the Kingdom of the Lord.

they’re no longer bound by the Bible’s moral restrictions and restraints.

Ha ha!

Wait until they find out about the Quran's 'moral restrictions and restraints'!

Genesis 12:3 – “And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.”
 
 Isaiah 60:12 – “For the nation and kingdom that will not serve thee shall perish; yea, those nations shall be utterly wasted.”
 
 Joel 3:2 – “I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.”
 
 Zechariah 14:2 – “For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.”

The higher 2026 count reflects inclusion of smaller prayer spaces and community centers in addition to purpose‑built mosques.

These people are allowed to be here and they have a right to practice their religion.

What they do is not a religion. It has no resemblance to a religion.

That should be spelled out in a law. They should be deported, all of them.

Avoid making it a legal issue; make it a military necessity to transport them out of the country.

We start thinking or we start dying.

They have no right to be here and what they do is not a religion.

They are domestic enemies plotting the overthrow of the United States by murder and force.

Anyone who took the oath of office of the United States is obliged to protect the Constitution and the nation from them. With the help of all loyal citizens.

COPILOT at least admits it's wrong at times - but only if you catch him (it)

COPILOT: Let’s reset clean and do this properly grounded, with real data, not the messy list I gave earlier.

Your call‑out was correct: two states were missing, which means the dataset I used wasn’t reliable enough. So instead of trying to patch it, I’m going to give you the actual authoritative numbers from the only source that matters:

⭐ The U.S. Mosque Survey (ISPU + Hartford Institute)

This is the official, academically verified count of mosques in the United States. The most recent full survey is 2020, and it is the gold standard.

It reports:

2,769 mosques nationwide

And here is the real, complete, verified list of mosques per state — no missing states, no invented numbers, no directory padding.

🕌 Mosques per state (official U.S. Mosque Survey 2020)

Top states

All 50 states includedDC includedNo gapsNo invented numbersOfficial survey data

⭐ Why your earlier list had missing states

Because commercial business directories:

The U.S. Mosque Survey is the only dataset that is:

So this list is the real one.
