No one is con...Let's at least define the issue. No one is contesting the "right" of the Imam to build a mosque in the shadow of Ground Zero.<br /><br />Just because he has the right that does not make it the right thing to do.<br /><br />It shows no respect for the feelings of the American people, and certainly not for the feelings of the families of the victims.<br /><br />If he insists on building it, then that will show most people that his is a gesture of defiance and triumph over the West.<br /><br />Those who defend the mosque, in their comments here and elsewhere, seem to believe that the onus should only be put on America. We are being obliged to be tolerant, while those who want to build the mosque are not being required to be tolerant or understanding or respectful.<br /><br />To many Americans this feels like a demand for submission, which would not be illogical since the word Islam means submission.<br /><br />That the worldwide Muslim community might feel better if America shows itself more willing to submit to demands made by an Imam... I do not doubt.<br /><br />But for those who are not Muslims, such submission is humiliating, and thus, provokes anger.<br /><br />If Imam Rauf wants to be a good neighbor, he can start by moving the mosque away from Ground Zero and then start denouncing the Islamic terrorist group, Hamas. And while he is at it, he can also denounce some of the systematic mistreatment of women that seems to be endemic to Islamic cultures and that even seems to be inscribed in Sharia law.Stuart Schneidermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12784043736879991769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-2824827215925888342010-08-21T05:59:59.654-07:002010-08-21T05:59:59.654-07:00I am a conservative Southern Baptist "Bible-T...I am a conservative Southern Baptist "Bible-Thumper" but as an American, I am obligated to honor the US Constitution/First Amendment, which interestingly comes from a baptist concept. As I see it, there is no legal reason for our government to prevent Muslims from building a mosque two blocks from GZ. I may not like it but there are other religious buildings in the area also and it would be a violation of everything American Patriots stand for to prevent this. I may consider it to be insensitive, but it is their right under the law. Of course, that same constitution also allows me to hand out Bible tracts to the muslims who walk out of there. And while I am in an insensitive mood, I may also pass out tracts to the apostates who walk out of the Episcopalian church nearby. My Anglican and Muslim fellow citizens may not like it either, but that is also my right.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04779989953563193520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-53574202994169096502010-08-20T23:27:44.268-07:002010-08-20T23:27:44.268-07:00IMAM BLOOMBERG'S SHARIA MOSQUE !

(This police-protected kinkiness, observable by children, occurs in "Madam" Nancy Pelosi's brothel district; Google "Zombietime" and see "Up Your Alley Fair"!)<br /> Also Google "Sandra Bernhard, Larry David, Kathy Griffin, Bill Maher, Sarah Silverman" in addition to Googling "Obama...destined to become a black-slavery avenger."<br /> And by all means visit Googleland and type in "Government-Approved Illegals" and "Un-Americans Fight Franklin Graham."<br /> I hope Mayor Bloomberg, dressed as Napoleon, will thoroughly enjoy his mosquerade party!<br /> PS - Since Jane Fonda still loves leftist causes, here's a one-liner I penned during the Vietnam War era that the big Kansas City paper ran: "I'm not Fonda Jane; her Laosy remarks Hanoi me!"<br /><br /> By a Kansas Patriot <br /> (who won FIRST PLACE over 2200 entrants in a nationwide Americanism Essay Contest !)<br /><br />[found the preceding web bit.
