At a Ramadan celebration dinner this Friday, President Obama announced his full support for the proposed construction of a mosque in the shadow of the former World Trade Center in New York City. This is about par for the course for America’s most anti-American president. Here we have yet another issue in which Barack Hussein Obama is diametrically opposed to the overwhelming opinion of the American people.
I suppose we should be thankful in some small way that Obama is expressing his true opinions on matters such as this, instead of lying to us. Truthfulness, however, does nothing to make his opinions any less disgusting and abhorrent.
The “cover story” justifying the construction of a mosque at Ground Zero in Manhattan is the desire for “Muslim outreach” and to “bridge the gaps” between cultures. This is both laughable and insulting. A farce! Lip service and nothing more.
In all my life I have never heard of a group “bridging gaps” between itself and another culture by offending that culture to its very core - especially when that offense involves disrespecting the memory of innocent members of the latter culture who were savagely murdered by outlying members of the former culture!
A mosque in such close proximity to where the World Trade Center once stood is an insult aimed at the very heart of America and should be rightly regarded as such. The primary purpose of a mosque is to serve the local Muslim community, yet there isn’t much of community near this mosque, as it is located in the heart of Manhattan’s commercial district. If there is no community, why build a mosque? The mosque’s proponents will not bring up the fact that historically mosques have also served a secondary purpose, and that purpose is to serve as a victory flag announcing to all who see it, “Let it be known that at this site, warriors of Islam were victorious over the infidel!” Apparently that’s the kind of statement that B. Hussein Obama can get behind!
