DescriptionWhat is the purpose of the Mosque near Ground Zero. Is it, as Imam Rauf claims it to be, a “cultural community center” for improving interfaith dialogue? Or could it be what many believe to be a recruiting center for radical Islam? Or maybe it will follow what the history of Islam has shown, and simply be a shrine celebrating another radical Muslim victory in it’s war against the infidels; a Western Mecca of sorts.

Though there is no clear evidence as to what the purpose of this building is supposed to be, there is a large amount of evidence as to what it is not. It is not what Rauf claims it to be. It is not for “improving interfaith dialogue.” Understand this…Rauf is a radical Muslim and practitioner of taqiyya, the Islamic practice of using deception to advance their cause. While Rauf is talking to the western world about tolerance, acceptance, and interfaith dialogue; he has said to the Arab speaking world “I do not believe in religious dialogue.” He has proclaimed his support of Sharia law a number of times. The same Sharia law that drove the terrorists of 9/11 to carry out their actions. The same Sharia law that allows for the beating of wives into submission. The same Sharia law that calls for the execution of any Muslim who converts to another religion. The same Sharia law that has pushed itself into the legal system of some European countries, and has America in its sights. Does this sound like a man interested in “improving interfaith dialogue”? Imam Rauf was even presented with a petition to end the practice of executing Muslims who converted. He refused to sign it. He is even been less than open about where the money is coming from to finance this project. I wonder why?

Unfortunately, our own Constitution protects him and his endeavour. He has done nothing wrong, even though he does share the beliefs of those who want us dead. And what is even more scary, is that there are Americans who are okay with it.
