Well who is safer, Loony having a BBQ? or As of Todays News  Threat from Imam Rauf Warning of Mosque relocation ? BBQ's seem More Friendly, The Pastor is a small fry......Don't anyone dare Offend a Muslim .....ACLJ: Imam Rauf Comments Backing Ground Zero Mosque "Insensitive and Divisive"      [Printer Friendly]   [Forward to a Friend]  

September 9, 2010

(Washington, DC) – The American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), which represents a New York City firefighter who survived the 9-11 terrorist attacks, said today comments by Imam Rauf asserting plans to build an Islamic mosque at Ground Zero are "insensitive and divisive" as Americans prepare to remember and honor those murdered in the 9-11 attacks.

"Imam Rauf missed an important opportunity to do the right thing and acknowledge that the planned mosque at Ground Zero should be moved to another location," said Jay Sekulow, Chief Counsel of the ACLJ.  "By interjecting the claim that our national security is at risk if the mosque is not built at that site is not only offensive to the 9-11 victims' families and friends, but to an overwhelming majority of Americans who don't want the mosque built at Ground Zero.  His comments were insensitive and divisive.  By denying the fact that the site, where part of the landing gear of one of the hijacked planes crashed through the roof of the building, is sacred and hallowed ground clearly shows he does not have the best interest of the families and friends of 9-11 victims at heart.  The Imam continues to miss the point – Americans are tolerant, but Americans understand this is not the place to build a mosque."

The ACLJ has filed a lawsuit challenging the project.  The suit, filed August 4th in New York State Supreme Court in New York – charges the NYC Landmarks Preservation Commission acted arbitrarily and capriciously and "contrary to decades of administrative precedent" when it rejected landmark status for the building.

The lawsuit is posted here.

The ACLJ will be filing an amended complaint in the weeks ahead focusing on the fact that the mosque developers do not own the entire proposed site and do not possess the legal right to proceed with demolition or construction.

The ACLJ represents Tim Brown, a firefighter and first responder, who survived the Twin Towers' collapse and lost nearly 100 friends.

The ACLJ also has heard from thousands of Americans who have signed on the Committee to Stop the Ground Zero Mosque.

Led by Chief Counsel Jay Sekulow, the American Center for Law and Justice focuses on constitutional law and is based in Washington, D.C.

A barbaric, backward religion has the whole world scared to voice opposition to it.

In indonesia there have been bible burnings, christian church burnings and even christin burnings.

But this is ok because their primitive, destructive religion believes that any relegion other than theirs is full of infidels and subject to destruction.

Im sorry, I dont see any difference between muslim, christian, buddist or jewish books.
They are all just bits of paper.

The real message is in our hearts, christians, buddists and jews beleive in forgiveness and compassion, the muslim religion (as practiced by extreemists) believes in punishment, destruction and death.
This is totally different from what the actual qurans text states.

Its not the book, its the extreemist, self serving, self proclaimed holy men who, (with hate in their hearts) have prostituted the quran, distorted the message and destroyed the love of man that God has given us all.

I think what they are planning is stupid.  That said:

It is their constitutional right to do it.  Freedom of speech.  Just like burning the flag, which I also oppose.

Where are all the people who said those who oppose building the mosque at that site should shut up, because it is a constitutional right to build there? 

Why are they all not out yelling about the RIGHT of these people, I will not call them a church, to burn the Koran?  Why are they not telling those who are opposed to the Koran burning to SHUT UP, just the same as those opposed to the site of the Mosque?

Such a double standard exists.

They are taking a stand at least, the rest of us US residents are afraid to do ANYTHING.   Watch the news.......in protest of even the thought of us burning a koran ( small letters because it doesn't even command any respect here) they are BURNING US FLAGS ALL OVER THE MIDDLE EAST....is that OK with everyone here.....that they can burn our flag but we can't burn their koran?  MONKEY POOP!!!!!

I'm not sure how you can connect the suggestion that someone "burn as many korans as ya want" is even remotely connected to someone threatening to set off a bomb...

From the article:

The suspect, identified as Roman R. Conaway Jr., 50, claimed on his Facebook page that he was going to burn a holy book Quran at 3 p.m. Tuesday. Then, Conaway wrote on his site:

"i need everbody with a camera phone or video phone or video cameras to come to 9030 summit drive in fairview heights illinois. the media and your goverment thinks this isa joke. im not joking."

[¿spoom]

This weekend I'm going to download the Quran to my Kindle and then I'm going threaten to delete it.

Please alert the media.

(I plan to delete it while sitting on my bike with my website written on the fairing.)


Again, please alert the media. Thanks

I think that would be sorta like taking a picture of an American flag with your camera phone, then deleting it.  Apparently it doesn't have the same effect with the media as the real thing...

Well folks the laughter of the day  Media and the real thing in one sentence! The Media is the instigator LOL!!   And think! without the Media who would know  A Slobbering love affair with the LEFT
