Oct. 30 (Bloomberg) -- Every Friday, Abdul Khaliq heads down a deserted lane with hundreds of other Muslim men to pray at a temporary shelter on a windswept wasteland in east London. He's waiting for the shacks to be replaced by Europe's biggest mosque.
``We are going to produce a landmark, something not seen in this country before,'' said Khaliq, project manager for the global Islamic missionary movement Tablighi Jamaat, which plans to spend at least 100 million pounds ($190 million) to build the mosque. Khaliq and his friends call it the London Markaz; neighbors in the borough of Newham dub it the ``Mega Mosque.''
(((Scary PING)))
Bigger target. Easier to hit.
Yea riiight that'll happen. We don't even get rid of the radical mosques here. You really think they will get rid of one in the UK by hitting it?

Wait until the rain starts...

I hope they do. Those places make me sick to my stomach just looking at them. We have a few here in Queens, NY and I can't stand them!
Under cover of darkness, people need to bury about a thousand pigs in the soil where this place will be built.

Catholic Churches and Synagogues are persona non grata and are not allowed to be on the High Streets like the Anglican church is. This mosque thing scares me!!
Why are they even allowing them to do that? I'll never understand it!
I cannot speak for Synagogues, but in the case of Catholic churches, that is simply not true.
I would like to see this project stopped.
Failing that, a localised earthquake at it's inaugral ceremony would not go amiss.
Any fault lines there? Or maybe some a nice bog?
some a nice bog = a nice bog
A 'freak' lightening storm could also work ...
Well, I lived in Kensington and the Carmelite Catholic Church was only allowed a little sign on the side of the Church while the Anglican was at the corner of Kensington High Street and Kensington Church Street. Same thing with Farm Street Church!! My husband's synagogue was in an old house on the second floor and had NO sign...also in Kensignton.
hnmmmmm! No sinkholes huh? But frying them with a lightening strike would be nice too.
