So once again Obama goes against the will of the people. Well I’m not surprised.
Obama said “This is America, and our commitment to religious freedom must be unshakeable. The principle that people of all faiths are welcome in this country, and will not be treated differently by their government is essential to who we are.” This is true. Of course, if the Muslims were actually interested in their religion, and not just poking America in the eye, then they would obviously see the sensitivity of placing a mosque in that area and would beg forgiveness, say their sorry for choosing that location, and find a new site.
But that’s not what they are doing. They are deliberately trying to rub our noses in the 9-11 tragedy… and either Obama is so stupid that he doesn’t see that… or he is one of them.
If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.
President Barack Obama on Friday endorsed plans for a Muslim mosque two blocks from ground zero in New York City, declaring that “Muslims have the right to practice their religion as anyone else in this country.”
Speaking at a White House dinner celebrating the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, Obama said all Americans have the right to worship as they choose.
“That includes the right to build a place of worship and a community center on private property in lower Manhattan, in accordance with local laws and ordinances, Obama said. “This is America, and our commitment to religious freedom must be unshakeable.”
An anti-mosque advertisement juxtaposes a plane about to crash into a flaming World Trade Center with a viwe of a proposed mosque near ground zero. The ads will begin appearing on New York City buses as soon as next week after the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) relented and approved them on Monday.
Obama emphasized the point as New York City is immersed in a deeply sensitive debate about whether a mosque should be built near the site of the World Trade Center’s twin towers.
His remarks drew agreement and vilification.It was the president’s first public remarks about the mosque controversy. The White House previously called the matter solely a local one.
The dinner was attended by over 100 guests, including two Muslim-American congressmen and ambassadors and officials from numerous Muslim nations, including Saudi Arabia and Indonesia.
I served with American Muslims in the Army, I volunteered with American Muslims on 911 at ground zero, I talked and shared meals with American Muslims here in New York there are 1.5 Billion Muslims all over the world, I assure you they are not all bad. In fact most of them are good people, they have families, they work hard they have good values, they pay taxes. I will also assure you that most Muslims aren’t trying to indoctrinate the world. I have never had a Muslim try and convert me, I cannot say the same for Christians.
