As if that were all there is to it. * What about the fact that the
Imam behind the mosque went on 60 Minutes in the days after the 911
attack and called the USA an "accomplice"? * *What about the fact that
when asked if Hamas is a terrorist organization, he refuses to
answer? * Seems a little strange, no? * He has no problem in calling
the USA an accomplice, but won't call out Hamas? * *Where is the
$100mil funding for this mosque going to come from? *How about the
fact that the Imam wants to see the USA move more toward compliance
with sharia law?
Funny how instead of addressing the real issues, some guys just want
to play the prejudice card.
I have doubts about your supposed "quotes". *Then it would be really
stupid to send him out to islamic countries for a goodwill mission.
Here's a link to him on 60 minutes where he said the USA's policies
were an accessory to 911:
http://newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-sh...round-zero-mos...
"BRADLEY: Are--are--are you in any way suggesting that we in the
United States deserved what happened?
Imam ABDUL RAUF: I wouldn't say that the United States deserved what
happened, but the United States policies were an accessory to the
crime that happened.
BRADLEY: OK. You say that we're an accessory?
Imam ABDUL RAUF: Yes.
BRADLEY: How?
Imam ABDUL RAUF: Because we have been an accessory to a lot of--of
innocent lives dying in the world. In fact, it--in the most direct
sense, Osama bin Laden is made in the USA. "
Here's a link to what he said, or refused to say about Hamas:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feisal_Abdul_Rauf
"During an interview on New York WABC radio in June 2010, Abdul Rauf
declined to say whether he agreed with the U.S. State Department's
designation of Hamas as a terrorist organization. Responding to the
question, Rauf said, "I'm not a politician. I try to avoid the issues.
The issue of terrorism is a very complex question... I am a peace
builder. I will not allow anybody to put me in a position where I am
seen by any party in the world as an adversary or as an enemy."
So, we have a guy who has no problem accusing his own country of being
an accessory to 911, but refuses to weigh in on Hamas. * Sounds good
to you?
As far as saying the US is complicit in the attacks on 9/11, the safety
systems in place did sort of fail the people who died on 9/11, right? *
That is to some extent a measure of being an accomplish, by allowing it
to happen. *
Utter nonsense. * A guy breaks into your house and kills you. * By
your logic, you were an accessory or accomplice to your own murder
because you didn't have bars on your windows.
It is an undeniable fact that for all the havoc of the TSA,
the "efforts" of the FBI and what have you other agencies, "they" still
keep slipping through the safety measures. *But maybe incompetence is not
complicity ...

The cleric is exactly right. *The USA has allied itself *to the
fascist state of Isreal.
Last time I checked, Israel is the only democracy in the middle east.
For fascism, you need to look at Iran or Iraq and Afghanistan, prior
to liberation.
Provided them with cluster bombs, phosphorus
and other weapons.
Yeah, you'd prefer they lay down all their arms and let their enemies
destroy them, which is exactly what would happen. I have no problem
with responsible democracies having all the means necessary to defend
themselves.
They are perfectly in order to strike back at their enemies and their
allies when these weapons are used. Especially in an indiscriminate
way.
The only indiscriminate use of weapons has consistently been on the
Arab side. Israel, like the US, has always done whatever it can to
minimize civilian casualties. Ever see any Israeli suicide bombers in
a pizza parlor or on a bus? It's the Palestinians and Muslims who
are running around the world, indiscriminantly blowing civilians up,
from Israel, to the USA, to Russia, to Indonesia, Spain, Britain.
See a trend there?
BTW. I see Blackwater, agent of the US gov. has bee caught out with a
big fine.
The USA is the world's biggest exporter of terrorism.- Hide quoted text -
