A plan to build a 'mega mosque' in east London has become mired in controversy with allegations that it is being bankrolled by Islamist groups in Saudi Arabia. Opponents say it would promote a radical form of Islam. They accuse its backers of not consulting local people. Tablighi Jamaat, the controversial Islamist sect that has applied for planning permission for the multi-million-pound mosque, has been described by French intelligence as 'an antechamber of fundamentalism'. This evangelical movement, which has gained a strong following among young male Muslims, is a Deobandi Muslim organisation that has close links with the Wahhabi fundamentalist form of the religion promoted in Saudi Arabia and practised by the Saudi royal family.
The sect, which bought the brownfield site in the early Nineties, has sent hundreds of British Muslims to madrassas - religious schools - in Pakistan each year. There are concerns within British intelligence that these trips may have radicalised some of them. Followers have also attended the sect's Saudi-financed UK headquarters in Dewsbury, West Yorkshire. They include Mohammed Siddique Khan and Shehzad Tanweer, two of the bombers who struck London on 7 July last year.

Why we must monitor mosques

In "Mosque Matters: Maybe we’d tackle the tough issues if we got that we’re at war,"

Michael Ledeen at National Review argues for what I have been arguing for for years: that we must monitor American mosques.It’s interesting that British jihadis came to Queens to recruit Americans — and no doubt some of them, fully trained in slaughter, have returned to these shores — but the important thing is the mosque. Because there’s always a mosque, as my Italian friend Magdi Allam has been repeating for several years. Not all mosques are jihadi, but all jihadis come from a mosque.

"...better to give up some freedom than lose it all under sharia law. What use is freedom and civil liberty if your either dead or enslaved?"
Not that I've heard of. :-)
Maybe the materials used in its construction are combustible. After all, Shi'ite happens..
We in the West have carved out so much 'freedom' for ourselves that it has become the rope which are hanging ourselves with. Through our twisted concept of 'freedom' we are allowing our worst enemies to emmigrate into our lands, where they do not assimilate, but gradually build their ancestral empires.
If "freedom" is not once again limited and balanced by Christian faith and wisdom, as it originally was, we will be dominated and controlled by islam. God doesn't like luke-warm faith, (which secularism amounts to); the Bible says He will vomit this out. So it's Christianity or its opposite. We still have the choice, but our leaders are taking us down the deadly path of the wrong choice.
That's why I always sit in the corner.
No problem at all, once the Saudis allow mega- churches and synagogues: for which I won’t hold my breath.
A Wal-Mosque?
