   *GROUND ZERO MOSQUE: ISLAM'S POLITICAL & MILITARY SHRINE*

*Analysis by Dr. Joseph B. Fuiten*

*August 17, 2010*


 *Building a mosque next to Ground Zero, the site of the 9/11 attacks on
America, is a classic Moslem move.*


 It is not primarily to provide a place for religious worship but to make a
political and even a military statement. *It is consistent with what they
have done all over the world all through the centuries of their existence.*


 *One of the doctrines of Islam is that Judaism and Christianity are
religions of the past which God has replaced with Islam.*


 In their view, both religions will fade away and Islam will continue to
rise. They say God gave the Jews their book but they did not keep it. Then
God gave Christians their book but they did not keep it. So God (Allah) had
to give a new book, the Koran, and a true religion.


 Of course, whenever Israel defeats a Moslem nation, it repudiates Moslem
theology. Whenever America succeeds in its economy or in military action, it
goes against their view of the way things should unfold. They view America
as a Christian nation (which is why the President went out of his way to say
we are not a Christian nation). Christianity is the fastest growing religion
in the world, even more than Islam, and America is at the center of
missionary efforts around the world. *The success of Christianity and
America is not the way Moslems believe it should be working, so they need to
do something about it.*


 *When the President was in Turkey in April 2009, they took him to Hagia
Sophia in Istanbul.*


 That building was for more than a thousand years the main church in
Christianity. Built by Justinian the Great in the 6th century it was the
place where centuries of Christian Emperors worshiped and where the Eastern
Roman Empire had its spiritual and Christian center. There is a picture
showing President Obama standing with the Prime Minister of Turkey in front
of the golden colored Moslem prayer niche. High above the church platform
they have uncovered the mosaic of Mary holding baby Jesus.


 After centuries of war, the Moslems finally captured Constantinople in
1453. *They took the church and converted it into a Mosque, letting the
world know what they think of religious freedom*. The bronze front door of
the greatest church in Christianity had a cross on it. The Moslems broke the
arms off the cross. Even after 558 years, the impression the cross made on
the door is still clearly visible. After more than 500 years they turned it
into a museum which the President visited.


 *The point that I am making is the habit of Moslems to take the central
aspect of a people or a religion and to make it their own.*


 *I think that is what is at work in New York at Ground Zero*. They cannot
put their Mosque directly on the site of 9/11, but they want it as close as
possible. *If they build their Mosque, the day will come, as surely as I
write these words, when they will want to use loudspeakers to blast their
five-times-a-day call to prayer on to the grounds of Ground Zero*.


 *How do I know they will do this?*


 Consider the part of Cyprus now illegally held by Turkey. There is a
picture, that anyone can see is a church. But it is not a church as it used
to be. It is now a mosque. There is a minaret on the left tower of the
church. You can notice the design of the cross over the front door. *Taking
over the central expression of Christian faith in that area and substituting
the Moslem presence is what they did in that church*. Now, instead of the
church bells, the Muslim call to prayer goes forth from the
church-now-Mosque.


 *Consider Nazareth and the Church of the Annunciation. *


 Nazareth is where Jesus grew up. It has been a Christian village for 2,000
years. The most important church in Nazareth is the church built to
commemorate the visit of Gabriel to Mary to announce the conception of
Jesus. When the Pope was planning a visit to Nazareth as part of the
Millennium celebration, the Muslims decided to answer. *They laid claim to
the land right next door to the church and set about to build a Mosque whose
minaret would look down upon the church and from there they could blast
their call to prayer into the church*.


 Thankfully, the Israeli government, which is not nearly so naive about such
things, put a stop to it and the Mosque was not allowed to be constructed
there. This was after the Pope threatened to abort his visit to Nazareth if
the Mosque was allowed to be built.


 In each of these cases, it wasn't that the Moslems had nowhere else to
worship. *They were making political statements particularly as it relates
to Christianity, the religion they are supposed to be replacing.*


 When President Obama or Mayor Bloomberg say this is about religious
freedom, they show how naive they really are. *They have no clue to the
dynamics, which are at work. **They blindly go along as if this is just
about giving the Muslims a place to pray and to gather*.


 *The President learned nothing in his visit to Hagia Sophia:*


 * President Obama had eyes but he did not see.*

* President Obama had ears but he did not hear.*

* President Obama had a brain but he did not understand.*


 *The Mosque at Ground Zero has virtually nothing to do with freedom of
worship but everything to do with political and even military posturing.*


 Moslems killed thousands of Americans on that site and then want to build a
Mosque right there. To every Moslem the message will be clear. To them,
Islam is in the process of taking over America* **and their $100 million
dollar memorial to their militant ways will stand tall for all to see,
except those who are blind.*



 *A FURTHER WORD BY NEWT GINGRICH*

*Statement on the Proposed “Cordoba House” Mosque near Ground Zero - July
21, 2010*


 There should be no mosque near Ground Zero in New York so long as there are
no churches or synagogues in Saudi Arabia. The time for double standards
that allow Islamists to behave aggressively toward us while they demand our
weakness and submission is over.


 The proposed “Cordoba House” overlooking the World Trade Center site -
where a group of jihadists killed over 3000 Americans and destroyed one of
our most famous landmarks - is a test of the timidity, passivity and
historic ignorance of American elites.


 For example, most of them don't understand that “Cordoba House” is a
deliberately insulting term. It refers to Cordoba, Spain - the capital of
Muslim conquerors who symbolized their victory over the Christian Spaniards
by transforming a church there into the world's third-largest mosque
complex.


 Today, some of the Mosque's backers insist this term is being used to
“symbolize interfaith cooperation” when, in fact, every Islamist in the
world recognizes Cordoba as a symbol of Islamic conquest. It is a sign of
their contempt for Americans and their confidence in our historic ignorance
that they would deliberately insult us this way.


 Those Islamists and their apologists who argue for “religious toleration”
are arrogantly dishonest. They ignore the fact that more than 100 mosques
already exist in New York City. Meanwhile, there are no churches or
synagogues in all of Saudi Arabia. In fact, no Christian or Jew can even
enter Mecca. And they lecture us about tolerance.


 If the people behind the Cordoba House were serious about religious
toleration, they would be imploring the Saudis, as fellow Muslims, to
immediately open Mecca to all, and immediately announce their intention to
allow non-Muslim houses of worship in the Kingdom. They should be asked by
the news media if they would be willing to lead such a campaign.


 We have not been able to rebuild the World Trade Center in nine years. Now
we are being told a 13 story, $100 million mega mosque will be built within
a year overlooking the site of the most devastating surprise attack in
American history.


 Finally, where is the money coming from? The people behind the Cordoba
House refuse to reveal all their funding sources. America is experiencing an
Islamist cultural-political offensive designed to undermine and destroy our
civilization. Sadly, too many of our elites are the willing apologists for
those who would destroy them if they could. No mosque. No self-deception. No
surrender.


 The time to take a stand is now - at this site - on this issue.
