The imam behind a proposed mosque near Ground Zero is a prominent member of a group that helped sponsor the pro-Palestinian activists who clashed violently with Israeli commandos at sea this week. Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf is a key figure in Malaysian-based Perdana Global Peace Organization, according to its Website. Perdana is the single biggest donor ($366,000) so far to the Free Gaza Movement, a key organizer of the six-ship flotilla that tried to break Israel’s blockade of the Hamas-run Gaza Strip Monday.
Nine passengers aboard the largest ship died in clashes with Israeli commandos, and a new confrontation loomed today, when another Free Gaza Movement ship was due to reach Gaza waters in defiance of Israel.
Efforts to reach Imam Abdul Rauf yesterday for comment were unsuccessful.
Debra Burlingame, the sister of the American Airlines pilot whose hijacked plane struck the Pentagon on Sept. 11, 2001, said the indirect ties of the imam to the protesters who confronted Israeli forces Monday were not surprising. “I think it goes to show he is not the man he represents himself to be. We have two Imam Raufs,” she said. “We have the anti-Israel, anti-democratic imam, and we have the smiling, soft-spoken moderate Muslim who says ‘Why can’t we all get along?’”

Stop Islamization of America is conducting a rally noon to 3 PM, Sunday, June 6, 2010, at the corner of Church and Liberty Street in lower Manhattan to protest the sharia-compliant mosque, “fun center,” and “party space,” aka Cordoba House, being built within Ground Zero’s kill zone.
The thing is, our society is vulnerable to liars. We have no method for dealing with simple lying. What happens if you call somebody a liar in the House of Commons, or the House of Congress? You get thrown out! It is expected, in civilized countries, that everybody is essentially acting in good faith, that we’re all, at the end of the day, on the same side, that no one would just stand there and lie, especially about stuff that you can just go and look up. But Muslims do exactly that. It even has a Holy name: “Taqiyya”. The Muslims who want to build “Cordoba House” are the bad guys. They want to stand there in plain view and go nya nya na na naaaaa na! It’s just that simple. Get past if folks, we are not dealing with well brought up little gentlemen here, we are dealing with a thing that embodies everything we think of as evil.

In the US we had someone that was a consumers report for politicians, he only outed people that lied to their constituents. Meaning when the politician lied he would set out to prove and did prove they lied and let his constituents drive them out of office or just vote them out in the next election he didn’t have the power to remove them and wouldn’t.
You might have known him as “Tail-Gunner Joe” or McCarthy
I doubt will ever see an honest man/woman in congress again.
I did not know that.
100% correct OxAO If you are referring to the late Sen Joes. Mc Carthy he outed a lot of commies in the government and Hollywood and was crucified and destroyed by the MSM. 50 yrs. + later files released from the Russian NKVD and KGB files proved he was right. He died a broken man . Some reward for a true servant of the people.
