This
And this.
If anyone wonders why most people think Americans are pricks, this thread is a good indication as to why.
They care nothing to learn of history.
George Bush himself was great friends with the rich members of Saudi Arabia's elites who have known links to the many hijackers.
Yet Americans like to cling to the idea that this is a result of "Muslims" in general. This helps them pinpoint their anger, although the irony is that it's pinpointing a larger group of people than they are themselves. Perhaps it's then a fear issue, turned into xenophobia.
Either way, the idea that building a mosque ten years later in an area near by where the horrible event occured, has anything to do with sensitivity is absurd. The hijackers were no more representative of Islam than are KKK members representatives of the teachings of Jesus Christ.
Of course that statement simply makes for a less interesting news story, and Fox News can't report it all day, get people involved in their fear and hate-mongering, etc.
The people that crashed into the towers were well-funded by your politicians and businessmen. They were not from Iraq, and nor did they represent Islam.
The worst part is the hypocrisy, where were your cries of insensitivity when you invaded Iraq and 10-30,000 civilians wound up dead. Where were you cries of insensitivity when there were no WMD's found, and nothing to link Iraq to the crime. Where's your fucking insensitivity there? What about when your own military couldn't get healthcare for themselves? What about when millions of Americans lost their homes? Wasn't that like last year?
Yet look at you pick this single event that is literally MEANINGLESS and attribute it all these emotional feelings, undoubtedly conjured up. I'd be surprised if you guys could feel anything. You're fucking sheep and you know it.
Brainwashed Americans, you make me hold my head in shame of humanity.
I guess the worst thing is that this shouldn't have to be said to people who are literate. I expect this to have to be said only at Nascar events and such.
lastly, the worst part of this is that because of your absurd attempts to link Muslims and Islam to the scene of the crime, we can no longer dissect it on the grounds that it should be dissected. ie. it must be seen (as all religion) as fundamentally problematic due to its patriarchal, misogynist & racist ideals whereby women and jews are treated as second-class citizens. before you get too high and mighty over this, every religion preaches the same unequal treatment of women and holds outdated and racist ideals.
You may not speak out against the Mosque!

"There is no question there is a concerted effort to make this a political issue by some. And I join those who have called for looking into how is this opposition to the mosque being funded," she said. "How is this being ginned up that here we are talking about Treasure Island, something we've been working on for decades, something of great interest to our community as we go forward to an election about the future of our country and two of the first three questions are about a zoning issue in New York City."

Jomo, this article contains a new talking point for you that you were probably unaware of - in reality, Barry O's dad was Malcolm X.
I am also curious how these proud anti-mosque Americans feel about where and when a confederate flag can be displayed...
it was unexpected that this issue would be the one to expose the teabagger's racist underbelly. I love this issue, it is going to END the tea party. END IT. because a bunch of hicks in flyover America (like JoMo) still have a hardon over 9/11 and just couldn't keep their mouths shut, per instructions...
It's never looking good for the Democrats. Great ideas, but no organization, and no balls. Same as in the 00's. And the 90's. And the 80's. Et cetera back to JFK
Spineless, always have been.
I am also curious how these proud anti-mosque Americans feel about where and when a confederate flag can be displayed...
Burn The Confederate Flag Day
Burn the Confederate Flag Day is a protest against the right's exploitation of racial prejudice for political gain. We urge you to burn the Confederate flag, a long-time symbol of racial hatred, on Sept 12, the date when the racially-divisive Tea Party holds its annual hate fest.
Ways to get involved:
* Host a flag-burning party on Sept. 12.
o Tell us where and when you're holding it, and we'll publish a list of events.
o Send us photos of the event. We'll post them here.
o Upload a video of the event onto YouTube. We'll embed it or link to it.
* Let them know we're watching. Dress up like a clown and take a partially burned flag to a local tea party event (Don't burn a flag at the event unless local laws allow it.)
* Spread the word via Facebook (here's our Facebook group), Twitter, and other social media.
* Submit your own ideas, below in the comments. We'll use them to update this list.
* Place a banner on your blog, website, or social media profile. Here are a couple of examples you can use:
Republicans have been nearly lock-step against Obama. They do not suffer the same problems of the Democratic party in regards to unity and resolve.Republicans say that about their party as well. They really hate McCain because he is viewed as being too liberal.
so much for the party of tolerance.
Why shouldn't they have a victory mosque? You guys even declared war on the wrong fucking country after the attacks, and you still haven't caught up with Bin Laden
Seems like a pretty clear cut victory to me, let them celebrate their defeat of the World Police
Why are you allowing the Muslim takeover of your country?

nice edit... i dont like what?okay - so I guess you are saying you don't like it when people try to tell you where and when you can display a confederate flag... which happily proves my point.
i dont like what?
Britain has been pretty multi-racial for a very long time, I don't have a problem with it
Shitty people come from all races and religions
It's getting worse, the more you 'don't care' the more freedoms you will lose and the more Muslim culture will infiltrate your life.
