Florida Man Sues to Halt Mosque Construction, Claims Terrorism Ties
Wednesday, May 02, 2007
A man fighting the opening of a mosque in his suburban neighborhood filed a lawsuit Tuesday to try and halt construction, a move derided by Arab leaders as anti-Muslim.
Rodney Wright, who is Christian, claims the relocation of the Islamic Center of South Florida to a new, larger building in his Pompano Beach neighborhood "presents a substantial harm to the well-being, safety and health" of the community.
The lawsuit claims the leader of the mosque, Imam Hassan Sabri, has repeatedly been associated with others who are tied to terrorist groups including Hamas, Al Qaeda and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad. The connections outlined in the filing appear loose and there is no accusation of direct wrongdoing.
Sabri has not been charged with any criminal wrongdoing and neither he nor his mosque have been the target of any publicized investigation. The imam did not return a call seeking comment.
Larry Klayman, the attorney for Wright, said the filing does not amount to an anti-Muslim action but maintained that the mosque sacrificed public safety.
"The mosque is radical, the imam is radical," Klayman said. "We believe they will go out and recruit people in the African-American community to do their bidding."

Christian Sues to Halt Mosque Construction

I remember that too. I wonder if he ever got the pig races going.... I lived by a mosque for a few months . It was pure he11. Most of the converts were from the county & state prisons and they weren’t very nice guys. We heard prayer calls 5 times a day . I got dirty looks walking my dogs and the neighborhood was scared. I was very happy when my house was ready to move into. I wouldn’t want a mosque in my neighborhood either.
10 years ago a little Christian church either folded or moved elsewhere....that edifice is less than 2 blocks from my house.
about 3 months later the Cross on top was replace with the star and crescent and then a bunch of local stores started selling fresh killed Halal goat meat etc.
The gas stations, 7-11’s etc in the neighborhood were already muslims before this.
on Fridays they park up and down the block sometimes blocking driveways. it was not uncommon for my neigbors to stand out in front of their houses telling them ‘you cant park here’
the Day after 9/11 I draped a large American Flag to the front facing of my house. After that they didnt park in front of my house.
They are still there however and I wonder what diabolic schemes they are hatching just down the block.
I just know that in my neigborhood, if they were to do what they did in France, rioting, turning over cars etc, they would get their reply in copper jacketed lead.
NIMBY????
you bet.
I’m not much into ranching or raising pigs myself.
If I were in the situation where a mosque ever did move in next door to me I would be tempted to blast the CD version of Salman Rushdie’s “The Satanic Verses” during “prayer calls” or even parking Bus 19 on my property so the Islamists could see the results of their ideology up front and in their face.

Just call me a happy infidel...
Just keep truck-bombing the construction site.
Those arabs like truck bombs.
I admire this guy’s guts.
When I moved by the mosque it was just for a short time while my house was being done. It was the only short term lease I could find that let me take my Akita's. The mosque was being converted from an old factory . Since there was no AC in the building they would often go up on the roof for the early morning prayers and the evening prayers. I couldn't miss seeing or hearing them as my windows looked directly on the mosque. It wasn't a pleasant sound nor a pleasant sight. Nothing drowned them out. I was not going to mess with these guys...They insulted all the women in the neighborhood. I think they left me alone because of the dogs. They seemed to be afraid of them. Crime also increased on the block too . But as I said most of these men were from the prisons & jails. I was really glad to move.
This is precisely the type of psychological harrassment that should be engaged in when Muslims want to bring their "prayer call" spewing mosques into quiet residential neighborhoods.
Bus 19 would be wasted on them, however.
They would see it as an emblem of pride.
One idea would be to get with my neighbors who front the street, and see that they all fly the American flag.
P.S. How about a gun rack in the car ?

That about covers the subject-:)
Wow, what a story...very touching.
He doesn’t want hate in his community. Who’d want to have a local Nazi HQ as their next door neighbor ?
