"A wise and frugal government which shall restrain men
from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government."

Mayor Bloomberg calls Americans Against the Ground Zero Islamic Mosques 'Un-American?"

If there is a recall in New York for Mayor, now is the time to start the petitions. How dare Bloomberg to call us Un-American for not wanting an Islamic Victory Mosque built at Ground Zero. It is at Ground Zero no matter what the Mayor wants to spin when you realize parts of one the planes that flew into the World Trade Center went through the roof of the building they want to tear down to build this mosque to Mohammed.

The best reason to call it an Islamic Victory Mosque comes from the fact that throughout history Muslims will build Islamic mosques on places they have conquered. Since Al Qaeda claimed victory over America on 9/11 when they murdered over 2600 people in New York City, the building of this mosque at Ground Zero makes sense if you are Muslim. It is also the very reason it should NOT be built on this location.

This question asked in the Washington Examiner Editorial says it all:
There are 100 mosques in New York City: Will 100 Christian churches ever be permitted in places like Riyadh and Kabul?
There are 100 mosques in NYC? That number alone brings into question why build at Ground Zero unless it is an Islamic Victory Mosque. Yet, Bloomberg calls all of us Un-American for not wanting the Ground Zero Islamic Mosque and Cultural Center built? Let them attend the other 100 mosques in New York City.

It is a fact that Christian churches are not permitted in some Muslim countries like Saudi Arabia where it is against the law in Saudi to build a Christian church. The small number of Catholics with money in Saudi who fly to other smaller Muslim countries who have small Catholic Churches for holidays like Christmas and Easter.

We found this article very interesting that no Catholic Church can be built in Saudi until the Pope recognizes Mohammed as a prophet:

Riyadh, 20 March (AKI) - No churches should be permitted in Saudi Arabia, unless Pope Benedict XVI recognised the prophet Mohammed, according to a Middle East expert.

While Saudi mediators are working with the Vatican on negotiations to allow places of religious worship, some experts believe it will not occur without this recognition.
The Saudi's are negotiating? What kind of negotiation is that -- change centuries of teaching about the prophets to now include the prophet Mohammed in order to build a Catholic Church? That should never happen -- better off to never have a Catholic Church in Saudi than to give into what is essentially blackmail.

We still are not hearing a word out of Bloomberg about the St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church that is not be allowed to rebuild on the land they own at Ground Zero. Guess they are not giving enough money to city leaders to get their church built. That is a cold statement to make but under the circumstances what other reason is there for the New York Port Authority to refuse to talk to leaders of St. Nicholas for over a year?

New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg has said those who believe the ground zero mosque should be moved elsewhere are “un-American.” (Richard Drew/AP)

With New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg now condemning as "un-American" those who believe the ground zero mosque should be moved elsewhere, the ill-advised project's most prominent defender is tottering on the precipice of the deep end. It is unfortunate that a man who made a fortune building a media company devoted to providing accurate and timely business information now resorts to such extreme rhetoric. The mayor needs to get a grip and apologize to those he has insulted, who include, according to multiple opinion surveys, clear majorities of New Yorkers and the American people.

It's also time for the project's main advocate, Imam Fiesal Abdul Rauf, to explain his previous rationalizations for terrorist attacks against America. Speaking in Australia in 2005, Rauf said: "We tend to forget, in the West, that the United States has more Muslim blood on its hands than al Qaeda has on its hands of innocent non-Muslims. You may remember that the U.S.-led sanctions against Iraq led to the death of over half a million Iraqi children. This has been documented by the United Nations."

Aside from the United Nations' utter lack of credibility, Rauf, who described himself on that occasion as an Islamic spokesman, echoed a familiar alibi of Islamist terrorists who murder innocent men, women and children, including many who share their faith. President Clinton, who supported the sanctions, rejected the alibi as nothing more than a lie that originated with former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein.

Rauf might gain some credibility if, while on his current U.S. taxpayer-funded junket to the Middle East, he used the occasion to challenge Muslim leaders to end their barbaric practice of executing those who convert from Islam to another faith. He could further gain credibility in the United States by demanding that Muslim leaders also allow Christian and other missionaries to operate openly and without fear in their societies.
