Yes. They won. They won the day GWB stood up after 9/11 and told the American people that islam was a “religion of peace.”
This is just the victory lap.

The place is called Cordoba house.

Anyone recall the history of Andalusia?

Why Ground Zero? I find this so hard
to believe. It makes you wonder just
who is in charge of these decisions. (Obama?)

I prefer to fast-forward to 1492;) Unfortunately you can’t do that while history is unfolding...

“9/11 attacks are now a total victory. They won.”

Yes, they bring down the towers then build a masque on the remains.

Now when Americans go to visit the site in the future, they will be treated by the sound of the Islamic Call to Prayer each morning blaring over laud speakers, just like in Mecca.

Free I Love New York Hijabs will be handed out to women passing by so that they will feel more comfortable in the neighborhood.

Bob Townley of Manhattan Youth, and chairperson of CB 1’s Waterfront Committee - left

Robert Townley, executive director of Manhattan Youth, a group that offers after-school activities and summer camp to downtown kids, said he feels it is his job as a community leader to help stanch the neighborhood exodus.

2004

Manhattan Youth has requested $1.2 million from the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation for an interim center (after 9/11), Townley said, a relative drop in the bucket compared with the $1 billion in federal 9/11 aid that the city-state agency has left to allocate.

"It's a seed of peace," board member Rob Townley said.

No, it's a piece of shiite.

This is an abomination. This mosque should never, never be allowed to open — NO MATTER WHAT IT TAKES!!

There may have been a time in the future for this. Now is not it. It’s too soon and there has been too much fanatic Islam activity for people to embrace this.

This wasn’t the time. You can’t force a healing process down anyone’s throat. So, now when anyone who lost someone on 9-11 is in that area they are going to see a huge structure that I suspect will be a very hurtful slap in the face. I doubt that will generate much healing.

“It’s a seed of peace,” board member Rob Townley said. “We believe that this is significant step in the Muslim community to counteract the hate and fanaticism in the minority of the community.”

The phrase ‘useful idiot’ comes immediately to mind.
