Ground Zero Imam Says U.S. Worse than al-Qaeda

New audio has surfaced of the imam behind the controversial mosque near Ground Zero allegedly telling an audience overseas that the United States has been far more deadly than al-Qaeda. "We tend to forget, in the West, that the United States has more Muslim blood on its hands than al-Qaeda has on its hands of innocent non Muslims," Feisal Abdul Rauf said at a 2005 lecture sponsored by the University of South Australia. After discussing the U.S.-led sanctions against Iraq under Saddam Hussein, Rauf went on to argue that America is to blame for its testy relationship with Islamic countries.

"What complicates the discussion, intra-Islamically, is the fact that the West has not been cognizant and has not addressed the issues of its own contribution to much injustice in the Arab and Muslim world." The audio was uncovered by blogger Pamela Geller of Atlas Shrugs.

“Is there some reason we can’t deport people like this?”

Better to shoot the sonofab!tch.

Must keep fighting the ‘in their faces’ bastards.

Treason is not protected speach. Treason is defined in our Constitution as providing aid and comfort to the enemy in wartime. He’s making his global trots on US taxpayers’ dollars. He is accountable to us as a public figure.

He's not any different than Obama.

They both need to be run back to wherever they came from.

That photo always brings to mind where Jesus said “better to have a millstone around the neck and thrown in the deep sea” than to poison the little ones.

The man would have a valid point if he were dead

Whitey's fault.

We've wasted enough time trying outreach.

Now is the time to reach out.

And go Crusader on their animal a$$es.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

Hey Imam, if the US is worse than al-Qaeda get the frack out and don’t the door hit ya where Allah split ya! And take your prayer rugs with you.

I don't see any non-muslims doing this.

[Oldpuppymax]

I’m sure THIS will get heavy play on CNN!!!!

They would only understand if you spelled it out in 4 capital letters.

The leadership of the GOP has been searching for their cajones with both hands and a mirror and coming up empty. Gutless, spineless eunuchs who need to be replaced with Conservatives.

Thank God we have patriots in our military that do have spine and guts or we would have already been destroyed by our foreign enemies.

[Howie66]

I hate to say this, but if we are going to prevail against Islam, the GOP sure is not the answer. Surely, not the GOP in it’s current configuration.

Sooner or later, we are going to have to get real and very serious about how we address the Islamists and their WAR against us. Make no mistake, either. This is a WAR.

Until that happens, we will remain in peril.

That is really the simple bottom line.

Still using that discredited lie about sanctions against Iraq killing children there. It was documented that Saddam Hussein withheld aid to children, even burying medical equipment sent as aid, just to exacerbate the situation for its propaganda value.

[libstripper]

Aside from the green headbands and bomb vests, they look just like the KKK.

[Candor7]

He needs to find out just how much worse the United States is.
