Ground Zero Mosque Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf claims Muslims are the real victims of terrorism
First I have to do something I rarely (if ever do). That is to credit Client Number Nine Elliot Spitzer for asking this question to Ground Zero Mosque Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf:
What Americans saw after 9/11 was celebration of Bin Laden in the Arab World. Now that Bin Laden is dead, there seems to be silence.
The nerve! Ground Zero Mosque developers asking for $5 million in federal funds!
Ok. It wasn’t bad enough that the Ground Zero Mosque developers were insulting the 9/11 families and all Americans who suffered on that tragic day, but now they’ve taken a step further. According to Fox News, The Ground Zero Mosque developers have filed an application to secure federal funding of as much as $5 million to pay for the damn thing! Yes, at least $5 million of your tax money will be given to these “developers” to pay for the Ground Zero Mosque, if it’s granted. The move is raising further controversy among those who have argued that the center’s proposed location shows a lack of sensitivity to the families of 9/11 victims.

Meet Imam Rauf’s business partner – Faiz Khan 9/11 truther
If you read my post on 9/11 you know how I feel about 9/11 truthers. There are truthers not only on the left, but on the right too, so it’s not totally an ideology based stance, though the vast majority are LWNJs. So imagine my surprise when I watched the O’Reilly Factor tonight to discover one of Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf closets partners is a 9/11 truther. His name is Faiz Khan. I don’t know if he is in anyway related to Rauf’s wife Daisy Kahn or not. What I do know according to the website called The Investigative Project on Terrorism is that Faiz Khan is one of those filthy 9/11 truthers claiming radical Muslims had nothing to do with what happened that day, and it was all done by the government. In an amazing bit of irony, Faiz Khan also happens to be a founding member of an organization run by Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf. According to the New York Post, Faiz Kahn was Rauf’s partner for many years in the American Society for the Advancement of Muslims. This group’s stated goal is to promote a better understanding of Islam. Check out this video of Faiz Kahn ranting about the vast government conspiracy of 9/11:
Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf says it is “absolutely disingenuous” to say Ground Zero Mosque site is “hallowed ground”
Despite the fact that parts of the United Airlines Flight 175 plane’s landing gear and fuselage crashed through the roof and two of the floors of the Burlington Coat Factory (now planned to be the Ground Zero Mosque), that doesn’t mean anything to “moderate” Muslim Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf. According to Rauf, he says it is “absolutely disingenuous” to say Ground Zero Mosque site is “hallowed ground.” The excuse Rauf gives for his stance is because there is a strip joint and betting parlors nearby. Well shouldn’t that make it wrong for a Muslim to build a Mosque there then? They can’t gamble, and their woman surely can’t participate in any “strip joints.” Of course, none of the patrons of the betting parlor or strip joints were part of the group who flew the planes into the World Trade Center either.
Great to know that the “alleged” New Jersey slumlord who claimed Osama Bin Laden was made in the USA, and that the US has more blood on it’s hands then Al Qaeda is into declaring what the U.S. should and should not consider “hallowed ground.” isn’t it?
Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf claims “resolution” in the works over Ground Zero Mosque issue
Probably beginning to realize what backlash Imam Rauf has caused, and the fact no one will ever lift a finger to help build the Ground Zero Mosque, it looks like it’s bargain time. The so called “moderate” Muslim claimed that:
“We are exploring all options as we speak right now, and we are working to what will be a solution, God willing, that will resolve this crisis, diffuse it and not create any unforeseen or untoward circumstances that we do not want to see happen.”
Ground Zero Mosque Imam Faisal Abdul Rauf threatens America over moving mosque
According to radical aka “moderate” Imam Faisal Abdul Rauf on CNN last night, if they were to move the Ground Zero Mosque elsewhere, it wold become a national security threat. Rauf claimed that some in the Muslim world would react violently if the Mosque project was moved. I say, if the “Muslim world” is going to react violently to a project in America, then bring it on, and watch your little “world” go up in smoke.
Here are some more quotes from the radical Imam not in the above video from the CNN interview last night:

Not only is Ground Zero Mosque Imam Rauf a terrorist sympathizer, he’s also a slumlord in New Jersey too!
Amazing what things you find out about an individual as the days go by. We already know Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf is a terrorist sympathizer, anti Israel Muslim, said America has more blood on it’s hands then Al-Qaeda, and Osama bin Laden was made in the USA. Now it turns out that Rauf is also an “alleged” slumlord. The New York Post reveals that at buildings in Union City and Palisades Park, where Rauf got tax dollars to renovate low-income apartments, tenants say their gripes about their lousy housing conditions have been ignored.
“Why doesn’t he help the tenants he has before he builds a new place, claiming he wants to help people?” said a disgusted Jamie Barillas, who lives in a Rauf-owned apartment at 2206 Central Ave. in Union City.
“Nothing gets done. We have to go through City Hall to get things done. . . . He doesn’t care about his tenants,” she said.
More from the “moderate Muslim” Ground Zero Mosque Imam Rauf – 1977 letter from Rauf says Make Israel ‘another Arab state’
The so called “moderate Muslim” and Ground Zero Mosque Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf is due back in America on September 2nd. He is in the process of wrapping up his two week middle eastern tour of bashing America and undoubtedly Israel. A lot of tidbits of information from Rauf’s past statements have leaked out over the past few weeks will Rauf was overseas. The latest is a 1977 letter written by Rauf calling for Israel to become “one more Arab country with a Jewish minority.” Politico has the quotes:
“In a true peace it is impossible that a purely Jewish state of Palestine can endure,” Rauf wrote. “In a true peace, Israel will, in our lifetimes, become one more Arab country, with a Jewish minority.”
“Moderate” muslim Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf – ‘U.S. Response to 9/11 Could Be Considered Jihad’
Here are some more great quotes from the “bridge builder”, “tolerant’ and “moderate” Muslim, Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf. According to NewsBusters, the so called “moderate” Imam Feisal was giving a crash course in Islam for FBI agents in March of 2003. Rauf was asked to clarify such terminology as ‘jihad’ and ‘fatwa’, Rauf stated:
“Jihad can mean holy war to extremists, but it means struggle to the average Muslim. Fatwah has been interpreted to mean a religious mandate approving violence, but is merely a recommendation by a religious leader. Rauf noted that the U.S. response to the Sept. 11 attacks could be considered a jihad, and pointed out that a renowned Islamic scholar had issued a fatwah advising Muslims in the U.S. military it was okay to fight the Taliban in Afghanistan.”
