Ground Zero Mosque: A Symbol Of Islamic Conquest

Despite the caterwauling by Barack Obama and Mike Bloomberg, no one protesting the "Ground Zero Mosque" is doing so out of Islamo-hatred, or whatever made-up word the liberal kindergarten class is using today. They are simply asking that the "Cordoba House" be moved a bit uptown out of respect for the sensitivities of the survivors of those killed by people espousing the same religious beliefs as will be practiced inside the mosque.

Seems like a reasonable request, no? One that would at least be open to discussion? Apparently not:

There was a better way. It came from Gov. Paterson, whose offer to help the mosque developers find another location held the potential for a harmonious settlement.

But without even a serious conversation, they rejected the offer, reinforcing suspicion that provocation to the memory of 9/11 is part of the developers' plan

It is self-evident that their professed aim, to build bridges across religions, can better be carried out in a spot not in the shadow of the murderous attacks by Islamic fanatics. Moving the mosque would help prove their motives are trustworthy and win a level of public support they won't get otherwise.

Paterson's offer called their bluff. While much about the project remains a mystery, we now know the developers are not the healers they say they are.

So if the Ground Zero Mosque is really about peace and understanding, why wouldn't its founders help create a little by moving it? Because, as most Americans clearly see, this mosque ha a lot less to do with reaching a hand out and a lot more to do with pulling a scimitar out:

Referring to his idea of covering the European landscape with mosques, the Islamist Prime Minister of Turkey declared: “Minarets are our bayonets; domes are our helmets; our mosques are our barracks; our believers are our soldiers”…With that, he spelled out his own version of Jihad for Islam to conquer Europe and convert the populations....

Because it is about conquest....

Ottoman Sultan Mehmet conquered Constantinople (Istanbul) in 1453 when it was the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire, or Byzantium as it was known then. When Sultan Mehmet entered the city on May 29, 1453, one of the first things he set out to accomplish was to convert the Cathedral of Constantinople, Saint Sophia, into a mosque. The building served as a mosque from 1453 to 1934 when it was secularized and opened to the public as a museum on February 1 of the same year…

Don't trust me? Take it from The Koran:

The Koran (018:021) states: 'Build a building over them, their Lord knows best about them;' and those who prevailed in their affair said, 'We will surely make a mosque over them.'

And that's why a mosque in Midtown is meaningless, and why a mosque overlooking Ground Zero is both a fulfillment of the commandments of the Koran and the execution of Turkish PM Erdoğan's battle plan.

It is a powerful symbol of the forcing of the United States of America to its knees before Allah and the Islamic world.

A symbol that President Barack Hussein Obama seems more than willing to provide them with. Hardly surprising, the Middle Name That Must Never Be Spoken has long indicated whose priorities come first in our president's mind...


UPDATE: More on the origin of the meaing of "Cordoba House", which is the chosen name of the Ground Zero mosque builders:

Cordoba was, of course, the seat of the caliphate established in what is now modern Spain after the Islamic invasion from North Africa in the 8th century A.D. The medieval occupation of Spain – “al-Andalus” – is considered by Islamic theorists to have been an inevitable step in the manifest destiny of Islam, and its eventual reversal through the lengthy European “Reconquista” a tragic but temporary triumph of the infidels. The great mosque at Cordoba was built on the foundation of a Christian cathedral, and when Europeans retook Cordoba in the 13th century they turned the magnificent mosque back into a cathedral.

"Cordoba,” in Islamic symbolic terms, means Islamic rule in the West. It does not mean “coexistence,” unless coexistence is interpreted as referring to Islamic rule....


UPDATE II: The other name being used by the founders of the GZ Mosque is the "Park 51 Mosque". Funny that there are a few good "51's" found in the Koran...the last line of Chapter 51 is especially interesting:

Therefore woe to those who disbelieve because of their day which they are threatened with....

Nice verse to reference in the shadow of Ground Zero...or perhaps this one - Chapter 5, verse 51 - is more of what the builders of the, ahem, Park 51 Mosque had in mind?

O YOU who have attained to faith! Do not take the Jews and the Christians for your allies: they are but allies of one another and whoever of you allies himself with them becomes, verily, one of them; behold, God does not guide people who are unjust...
