Remember when the right tried to ban the mosque in NY?[/QUOTE
I remember that the Islamists' helpmates in this country, who don't like it any better than they do, bent over backwards to protect that effort to spit on the graves of the many people who were murdered at the World Trade Center on 9/11. The Muslim Brotherhood, acting through some of the front groups it has established in the U.S., is behind the so-called "Cordoba Project." They cleverly chose as its public face a man who wears suits and seems Western and moderate, but is an Islamic extremist through and through. Two of these front groups, the ISNA and the IIIT, have supported his propaganda efforts, including the publication here of an English-language version of a book he has written about how to advance Islamist goals in the U.S.
A couple decades ago, some of these same unsavory people were the guiding force behind a similar large Islamic complex called Dar al Hijrah, near Washington, D.C. Although most of the people who attend it are good citizens, which enhances its public image, this complex has been associated with various jihadists. Just one example of these was Anwar al-Awlaki, who was hired as imam there in 2000. Awlaki was at the time mentoring two of the 9/11 hijackers, and when he moved to northern Virginia from San Diego, they moved with him. After 9/11, he went to Yemen to serve as a recruiter for Al Qaeda, which he did until the U.S. killed him with a drone a few years ago. Nidal Hasan, the Fort Hood jihadist murderer, used to work at Walter Reed and knew Awlaki from Dar al Hijrah. It was Awlaki, in a series of emails, who assured Hasan that if he killed fellow members of the U.S. Army, Allah would approve of it.
Do you not know any Muslim people?
No, I do not. And I have no plans to change that.
