So now it transpires that a key money- man behind the proposed Ground Zero mosque is a one-time supporter of a group shut down by the feds because it was a front for Hamas.
No wonder the mosque's principal imam, Feisal Abdul Rauf, refuses to discuss the project's finances.
Or, for that matter, refuses to speak harshly of Hamas -- an Iranian cat's-paw that's long been one of the deadliest Islamist terrorist organizations operating in the Mideast.
It was reported last night that Hisham Elzanaty -- an Egyptian-born businessman from Long Island -- provided a big chunk of the $4.8 million needed to buy the building that will be demolished to make way for the mosque.
Among other things, Elzanaty runs a Bronx-based medicial supply company that had to refund more than $300,000 in Medicaid payments in 2004-2005.
In 1999, he donated thousands to the Holy Land Foundation, later shuttered by the feds because of its Hamas ties.
All of this is, as they say, enough to give one pause.
But we doubt it will truly surprise any among the 71 percent of New Yorkers found this week by Quinnipiac University pollsters to oppose the mosque.

Hoo boy those moose are getting cheeky nowadays
Sounds as though Manhattan is infested by a coven of terrorist supporters who need to be jailed as enemies of our country. Since the current administration doesn’t want to offend terrorists by such drastic action, the very least they can do is deport them ASAP.

My understanding and experience of Islam as a combat veteran in OIF (2003-2008)
- Islam demands respect for it’s customs by the host population
- They immediately begin to import their own laws into the host population
- They use the “minority” radicals to spread fear among the host population and enforce Islam’s code
- They begin to populate large numbers of Muslims through immigration and birth in the host nation
- They do a show of force through large gatherings when out numbered by the host population and center themselves in urban areas
- Once they gain the majority, they strike down the host population or drive them out by use of the “minority” radicals and seize what was the host population properties.
- Once Muslims move into an area, they spread into the social fabric through the establishment of mosques, by the economic through stores in every part of the city to bring Muslims into areas once dominated by only the host population, the use the political sphere to get Muslims elected into local, then state, then federal offices by shear numbers in order to take over the entire social, economic, and political host through the protection of what is defined as a religion.
It more commonly fits the definition of a virus: a small infectious agent that can replicate only inside the living cells of organisms. Most viruses are too small to be seen directly with a light microscope. Viruses infect all types of organisms...
I think what we are seeing with Zero’s numbers tanking is an all out effort to get as much of their caliphate underway before the gig is up. They like the Dems have a window of opportunity that is shrinking daily. 59 days to go for a red, white and blue November. This explains the urgency to drive a stake in the ground. We need to drive a stake through the heart of it and figuratively for those who support such nonsense.
I have always hated the color red being associated with the right. It is my opinion this was another attempt by the progressive media to fool the general public. Red belongs to progressives and commies. All one needs is to look to China, USSR, Korea, etc.
Bloomberg and the Left are now actively smearing anyone attempting to investigate, or at least shine a light on the shady finances of the GZM. Apparently it doesn’t take much to get labeled a “bigot” by this crowd.
What would you call all this....a study in irony?
----------------------
Here's some background that the piss-stream media will never tell you.
Let's look overseas: Hamas, which is the Palestinian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood has been formally designated a terrorist organization under our law for many years. According to its charter, Hamas's purpose is to create an Islamic Palestinian state by eliminating Israel through violent jihad.
The Muslim Brotherhood explained in an internal memorandum that their work in the United States was as a 'grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within.' The Brotherhood said its tactic would be 'sabotage.'
The 1991 memorandum elaborates that every city should have an 'axis' and 'perimeter' from which this jihad-by-sabotage strategy is headquartered. That axis will be known as 'the Islamic Center.' Islamic centers are to become 'the 'base' for our rise, the memo says. They are to be the focal point of education, preparation, and the 'supply of our battalions.' Battalions are small cells of fighters. In Muslim Brotherhood ideology it is assumed that, at a certain mature point, when Muslim forces are strong enough, violent jihad will be effective. And Islamists prepare for it. Sheikh Yusuf Qaradawi, the spiritual guide of the Muslim Brotherhood, has proclaimed that 'dawa', the stealth form of jihad, is the method by which Islam will 'conquer America' and 'conquer Europe.'
The Saudis have been underwriting the Brotherhood's dawa efforts for decades.
The president's strategy is absolutely clear about the threat we face. Our enemy is not terrorism because terrorism is but a tactic. Our enemy is not terror because terror is a state of mind and, as Americans, we refuse to live in fear. Nor do we describe our enemy as jihadists or Islamists because jihad is holy struggle, a legitimate tenet of Islam meaning to purify oneself or one's community." -- May 26, 2010, John Brennan, Assistant to the President and Deputy National Security Adviser for Homeland Security

“It is my opinion this was another attempt by the progressive media to fool the general public. “
You are absolutely correct.
When did it change? I’m sure someone out there has an answer.
