Adevoc Satanae,

Although I get the impression you are saying you do not understand to avoid answering the question. I am lacking the time to break it down in sesame-sized chunks so you may understand...

You are quite mistaken. I have no problem understanding what you are saying. I do not understand how it applies to what I said in the context in which I said it. Basically it looks like you took a sentence, removed it from the context of the response that it was and used it to make some arbitrary statement.

You say a church going up in that location would not cause such uproar while I state that if it was surrounded by the same controversy as this building people would indeed have a problem with it.

But there is no church with this same level of controversy is there? Just a mosque. So...going back to my response, my point stands.

Try reading it back a couple of times and take pauses in between for better comprehension.

Peace

Peace

Maybe you need to try following the conversation to understand what I am saying so that your attempt to hijack my sentence and use it to make some other nonsense point will become a little more clear.

Guys, can we get back to the topic and keep this civil? There's more people in here than you two.

The FBI has been searching for Shukrijumah since 2003. He is thought to be the only al-Qaida leader to have once held permanent U.S. resident status, or a green card.

What does this have to do with the mosque at ground zero?

This is an interview with the author of Journey into America by Ambassador Akbar Ahmed.

Thanks for posting this. I watched it last night and thought he said some things that were relevant to this thread but forgot all about it this morning. I found it funny that he was so surprised at the amount of black Muslims in America since all the Muslims I have ever known have been black except for the two white ones from Canada. I am intrigued about the vast differences he says he found between different groups of Muslims within this country just like we all know that Christians vary greatly from Northern Catholic to Southern Baptist but people seem to think all Muslims are the same. Even our government did not understand the difference between Sunni and Shia which would have been a huge help.

Well first off becareful about calling the mosque "at" ground zero
The politically correct troll and will be sure to enlighten you about that. Some may even attempt to correct the "mosque" word too, although I've seen it referred to "mosque" more than not in news articles.

You are correct though, imo with your wordage

We know it wasn't just the terrorists who are to blame for the reason we call that area "Ground Zero" but it ties in.

The article mentions

It's natural he would focus on attacking on the U.S, LeBlanc said.

"He knows how the system works. He knows how to get a driver's license. He knows how to get a passport," LeBlanc said.

They were/are hidden in plain sight legally, it's not something new I know.

Adnan Shukrijumah, 35, has taken over a position once held by 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, who was captured in 2003

It's great to see that the FBI is doing their job and finding and dealing with these kinds of threats, both foreign and domestic, to our security and people.

But, I would second the question. What does that really have to do with the topic of the Islamic center in lower Manhattan? It would be perfectly logical to assume that should there be a threat there, local, state, and federal law enforcement would handle it as they did here.

Let me try this way.

What does this article you posted have to do with this thread about the community center being built two blocks from ground zero?

Challenge to Ground Zero Mosque Leaders: Answer 3 Questions

www.newsmax.com...

Journalist Thomas Friedman and many others including New York's mayor consider the building of a mosque proof of American tolerance that will have positive impact on the Muslim world.
Yet others...

Rabbis in Support of NY Mosque

This is a message from the people who know the imam well and have worked with him for years. There is also a statement from the ADL at the end of the clip.

Once you read it, you will see how it ties together

Of course, opponents of mosques do not consider themselves bigots, and many are genuinely concerned that mosques may help produce homegrown terrorists.

So, that would make it the safest place in the USA then from future
attacks.
