PR Newswire: Non-exisent Permits on Ground Zero Mosque
New York, New York-Andy Sullivan, founder of the 9/11 Hard Hat Pledge was an eyewitness to the World Trade Center attacks. After seeing the first plane hit he successfully evacuated all of his Construction crew. His one regret from that day is “not knowing that the first girl I ever loved was working at Cantor Fitzgerald. I could have saved her.” Mr. Sullivan, a lifelong Construction Worker and a member of New York’s largest Construction union is an expert on New...
Rabbi Eric H. Yoffie: Auschwitz and the Mosque Near Ground Zero
Jewish Americans have generally been more supportive of the Cordoba House project than other Americans. Jews have been denied Religious Freedom and been the Victims of Religious Discrimination so frequently that their natural sympathies lie with others who now confront these burdens. Nonetheless, even those most firmly committed to building the Community Center/Mosque in Lower Manhattan have struggled with the seemingly powerful argument that what happened at Auschwitz in the 1980s is a reason...

Reichert: Mosque is New York's decision
The decision on whether to build a Muslim Cultural Center and Mosque near Groud Zero in New York is "a local issue," Republican Rep. Dave Reichert said in an interview on Thursday. "It's the city of New York and people who live there who rightfully have the right to make a decision on what happens at Ground Zero and around it," said Reichert, Western Washington's lone GOP congressman. The "Ground Zero Mosque" flap has featured incendiary Rhetoric by Fox News pundits, with former House Speaker...
Hoo-boy. Ground Zero Mosque Developer Cat Fight?
ZIP called it early this morning:
From the Coalition to Honor Ground Zero :
Elzanaty obviously wants to move the Mosque to a 6-story building near the Brooklyn Bridge. According to Fox 5 NY TV reporter Charles Leaf, Elzanaty says, It was his idea to put a Mosque in Lower Manhattan not [Sharif] El-Gamal and not the imam, Rauf, and its his money (Elzanatys) that purchased the building. He says his whole intent from the get-go was simply to provide a proper place to pray for Muslims...
Ground Zero mosque melee; investors split over move and control, mainstream media plays ball with imam and developer
Hisham Elzanaty, the majority owner of the former Burlington Coat Factory, apparently is looking to use his controlling interest in the property to both force a sale of it and to move the planned Mosque to an existing building further away from Ground Zero. Yet the story within the story is the stark evidence that Mainstream Media outlets are either blatantly in the tank for a Mosque overlooking Ground Zero or ignorant of the facts with which to do credible reporting. Either way, their news...
Developer Hopes to Use Tax-Free Sukuk to Finance Bulk of Ground Zero Victory Mosque.
According to el-Gamal, since “most people truly hold’us’ responsible for this”, a 9-11 memorial and prayer space would be located on the top floor. The Muslim prayer space would be in the basement for a congregation of 2000 “mainly Muslims” who work in the neighborhood. (And all the Muslims from around the world that would be making a pilgrimage to the site of their greatest victory over the infidel.)
I don’t know about you, but I would absolutely...

House passes 9/11 health bill for Ground Zero first responders
WASHINGTON -- The House yesterday passed a long-stalled 9/11 Health bill, with New York lawmakers leading the charge that put first responders a step closer to government-paid medical Care for illnesses blamed on Toxic Chemicals at Ground Zero.
The House gallery erupted with applause from dozens of city Police and Firefighters as the bill passed 268-160 following fierce debate.
"To the living Victims of 9/11, we have good news: Help is on the way," said Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-Manhattan and...
Buzkashi at Ground Zero
Four years after setting up home and shrine in a humble New England farmhouse, a group of Thai Buddhist monks is preparing for grander quarters. By 2012, a sprawling 60-foot-high Theravada Buddhist temple and meditation center will rise from the South Street East property. It will be topped by a 180-foot golden spire. The complex will culminate the long-held dream of Boston-area Thai families to honor their monarch, King Rama IX, Bhumibhol Adulyadej, who was born in Cambridge in 1927. The...
House OKs $7.4B for Ground Zero medical costs
The U.S. House has approved $7.4 Billion to pay the medical costs of rescuers, workers and residents near Ground Zero who were sickened by the smoke, dust and toxic fumes from the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks in Manhattan. The vote was 268-160, with 13 Republicans joining the Democratic majority.
The Legislation, which would be paid for by ending U.S. Tax Breaks for foreign-based companies, would also reopen the 9/11 compensation fund and allocate up to $8.2 Billion for death and injury payments....

NYC mosque developer: No plans to move project
NEW YORK (AP) The developer behind a proposal to build an Islamic Center near the site of the Sept. 11 attacks said Wednesday that the experience has been an "eye-opener" about misperceptions surrounding his faith, but that he is the one ultimately calling the shots on the project and has no plans to move it.
Speaking on NBC television, Sharif El-Gamal reiterated his stance that the opposition to the Park51 project was unexpected.

Anderson Cooper confronts anti-Muslim candidate
On Friday night, Anderson Cooper conducted a must-see interview with Congressional Candidate Renee Ellmers, the North Carolina Republican who is running the most baldly anti-Muslim advertisement of the year. This was the ad we told you about last week that refers to the organizers of Park51, "the Muslims," and "Terrorists" interchangeably.
In the interview (via TPM's Eric Kleefeld ), Cooper challenges Ellmers on her conflation of Muslims and Terrorists. She responds: "[T]hat is certainly not...

Since I'm one of the people who's always complaining that Conservative Bloggers, columnists, and Talk Radio hosts don't do enough to get Conservatives elected, I think I have a special responsibility to step up and help some Candidates. So here are 7 Republicans running for House seats that I believe deserve our support.
1) Renee Ellmers: Ellmers is a Conservative Candidate who has taken a particularly strong stand on the Ground Zero Mosque . She's also in a tight race with Bob Etheridge ,...
New Manhattan Mosque Leads to Questions About Park51
MYFOXNY.COM - Opponents don't have a problem with a Mosque in Lower Manhattan -- just a Mosque at Ground Zero. The primary investor in the project says location was the issue -- just a proper place to pray. But a new Mosque in Lower Manhattan would seem to be a satisfy both. Nearly a hundred Muslims filed in for afternoon prayers at a new and active Mosque. Fox 5 was the first report the existence of this Islamic house of worship. It is in the same general area as the Controversial Mosque on...
Bob Beckel Is A Grotesque Pig, He Carries Water For Radical Islam, And Fox Should Fire Him
Even as Liberals claim to be feminists, it's impossible to miss that the most grotesque Misogyny comes from the Left these days. Everything from "hate f*** lists," to over-the-top sexist insults, to attacks on women's families have become par for the course when Democrats are involved. If you want to see another all-too-typical example of how Liberals view women, listen to the crap Pamela Geller had to deal with at the hands of Bob Beckel -- and on Fox of all places, Tonight's Ground Zero Mosque...
