We’ve been told there’s a good and a bad islam (yeah good luck finding the good one)
Well if that’s so, than this POS new age nazi imam is on the bad side for sure.
Why aren’t our leaders saying he is a radical, a terrorist enabler, and that he wishes to desecrate and spit on the graves of 27000 Americans? That this project will only make people even more distrustful and angry at Islam not less? Where is the courage to tell the truth?
My best guess is this guys extending his fifteen minutes as far as they will go. I’ve read too much about him to believe he ever stood a chance of convincing Prince Alaweed and the petro-sheiks of the Gulf States that he’s a big wheel worth investing in. Right now, he’s radioactive and none of the big players will touch him. Furthermore, it’s already known he isn’t even a proper Imam and his congregation never numbered much more than that of his blood brother Pastor Terry Jones. He’s a small-time prayer leader, glamorous wardrobe notwithstanding.
9/11 was his big break. It was the GWB administration—desperate to find “good Muslims” on whom to bestow the White Housekeeping Seal of Approval—that hired him for his long-running, profitable “outreach” gig that allowed him to play imam as a full-time job, lecturing the military and law-enforcement on sensitivity to Muzzies.
No way is he going to pony up anywhere near the necessary dough to turn his 9/11 Victory Mosque into a reality. His partners who own/control the lease on the property are banking that the longer this plays out the more likely that someone close to the administration (Soros? Buffett?) is going to buy it off them for a princely sum just to make them go away.
The only value he can still command is as a pus-oozing chancroid of embarrassment on the skinny butt of Obama (who, after all, embraced this Tar Baby). Sooner or later, Obama and co. are going to have to find some way of paying him off before November 2 rolls around.
