More supremacist ties to the Ground Zero mega mosque going up on sacred ground:
A religion adviser to President Obama has close ties to the imam who wants to build a 13-story Islamic cultural center near Ground Zero. The two have been documented together discussing America as “the ideal place for a renewal of Islam,” WND has learned.
In February, Obama named a Chicago Muslim, Eboo Patel, to his Advisory Council on Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships. Patel is the founder and executive director of Chicago-based Interfaith Youth Core, which says it promotes pluralism by teaming people of different faiths on service projects.
Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, the controversial Muslim leader behind the plan to build the Islamic center and mosque two blocks from Ground Zero, wrote the afterword to Patel’s 2006 book, “Building the Interfaith Youth Movement: Beyond Dialogue to Action.”
Patel is listed as one of 15 “Muslim Leaders of Tomorrow” on the website for the American Society for the Advancement of Muslims, or ASAM, which is led by Rauf.
In Patel’s 2007 book, “Saving Each Other, Saving Ourselves,” he recounts discussing with Rauf the future of Islam in the U.S.
Rauf “understood the vision immediately and suggested that I visit him and his wife, Daisy Khan, at their home the following evening,” Patel recalled.
Khan founded the ASAM with her husband and has aided him in his plans for the mosque near Ground Zero.
“The living room of their apartment on the Upper West Side was set up like a mosque, with prayer rugs stretched from wall to wall,” wrote Patel in his book.
Continued Patel: “I arrived at dusk, prayed the maghrib prayer with Daisy and Imam Feisal and then talked with them about how America, with its unique combination of religious devotion and religious diversity, was the ideal place for a renewal of Islam.”
“In the twentieth century, Catholicism and Judaism underwent profound transformations in America,” Rauf observed. “I think, this century, in America, Islam will do the same.”
Patel boasts of a “critical mass” of Muslims in the U.S.
“Islam is a religion that has always been revitalized by its migration,” he wrote. “America is a nation that has been constantly rejuvenated by immigrants. There is now a critical mass of Muslims in America.”
Patel last March wrote a Huffington Post piece referring to Obama’s former “green jobs” czar Van Jones as a “faith hero.”
“In my last post on Van, I called him an American patriot,” wrote Patel. “That is high praise in my book. But watching Van’s speech at the NAACP, I have another title for him, one that I reserve for the true giants of history. Van Jones is a faith hero.”
Jones resigned in September after it was exposed he founded a communist revolutionary organization and signed a statement that accused the Bush administration of possible involvement in the 9/11 attacks. Jones also called for “resistance” against the U.S.
Jones previously stated his advocacy for green jobs was part of a broader movement to destroy
When you see the real face of Islam striped of all pretence you will be looking into the face of HORROR!
People say there is a devil but that devil is not some disembodied spirit. That devil comes in the form of a man claiming to speak in the name of G-D proclaiming his own notions to be the only way to approach the Holy Seat. That man, who is no more than a man and nothing special or set apart from the rov yet who claims to have a private and exclusive relationship to G-D and who goes about claiming that only through him can we achieve apotheosis. That man is the greatest of liars.
I have heard his words and I have seen the deeds of those who are his followers: Murder, Rape, Thievery and Blasphemy before the Seat of Heaven. That man “IS” the “DEVIL” and his name is “MOHAMED!”
Islam is horror, that must be purged from the entire earth. Nice site, thank.
