Ground Zero Mosque: It’s not easy being green
Central Park, Manhattan, USA.
By Sissy Willis of sisu
"Parks are for the public. Parks are fun. Parks are green. And
parks are not controversial," gushes Ibrahim Abdul-Matin in a Daily Beast "Exclusive: Ground
Zero Mosque Goes Green," telling the online publication's readership — card-carrying members of Angelo Codevilla's "America's Ruling Class" — what they want to hear. According to his DB blurb, Ibrahim is "author of Green Deen: What Islam Teaches About Protecting the Planet," as well as "an environmental policy consultant" who has worked for something called "Interfaith Leaders for Environmental Justice." Buzzword alert alarm! Here's the
Taqiyya — the Qur'an-sanctioned practice of misdirecting the Infidel's
attention away from the faithful's insidious mission of imposing
Shari'ah law on "the planet" — they're peddling:
Amid the uproar over
the Cordoba House project, Ibrahim Abdul-Matin reveals that it will be
the country's first certified "green mosque," named Park51 to connect
faith and the environment.
Court of the Lions, The Alhambra, Spain.
Isn't that special? Ibrahim Abdul-Matin paints pretty pictures for our friends on the left side of the aisle who
would accuse us of bigotry for fighting back against the grave robbers of Ground Zero:
In the midst of the
drama around the mosque that’s being erected two blocks from Ground
Zero, a few details have been left out that provide some clarity as to
the purpose of this project. Specifically, the project will be the
country’s first certified “green mosque,” in full compliance with
stringent LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design)
standards, which is why organizers have named the project Park51, rather
than the oft-cited "Cordoba House."The mosque (which is more accurately a community center with a prayer
space) is located on Park Place in Downtown Manhattan, but the new name
also reflects a desire to emphasize the intricate (though widely
unknown) connections between Islamic teachings and environmentalism.
For example, Islam calls upon people to be "stewards of the Earth" and
to treat all things in nature as sacred.
All things in nature except the Infidel, not to mention the female of the species, of whatever faith. Why can't we all just get along? Al "Sex-Crazed Poodle" Gore was unavailable for comment.

Hey, even Osama has tripped over the whole “Green” meme. These Islamists don’t miss a trick.
There is just one simple thing I’d like to say, in every place, on every blog, as my “dialog” with Islam:
The Cordoba mosque will NEVER be built.
I don’t know how it will be thwarted, and I don’t much care. I don’t know if a steady line of Patriots will encircle the area until they throw us all in jail. I don’t know which officials will obstruct, delay, deny and misplace necessary permits. I don’t know which new laws will be passed to impede. I don’t know which judges will decree what. I just know that it will NEVER be built.
Pig blood in the cement….
Oh Joan, it will be built sweetie! We have universal healthcare now baby!
Not very “universal” health care…not at all…
It is just another lie.
If it’s gonna be green, then I just can’t be against it. If the 911 attackers had been green everything would have been just fine. I hope Abu is recruiting some construction crews in Dubai. NYC crews are just too ungreen to do the job. I imagine Hillary is writing up the work permits right now.
Oh Ricky! All of the intangibles of Obamacare are problematic, (We had to pass it to know what’s in it. Like finding corn kernels in a turd. . .) but there’s nothing like a real and solid attempt of space and place and bricks and mortar for a perfectly fine rallying place!
.
“The mosque (which is more accurately a community center with a prayer space)”
And there’s your winner. Your bullshit detectors should be beeping wildly right about now. If it has a prayer space, it is a mosque. If it is a mosque, it is for Muslims only. Like in Orthodox Churches, when the priest yells “the doors, the doors”, we used to lock them and kick out all non-baptized, non-Orthodox (don’t do that anymore). There is no “Reform” Islam, to go with “Conservative” Islam and “Orthodox” Islam. All Islam is Orthodox or it is not Islam, and hadith don’t allow non-Muslims past the borders of the ablution stalls.
Is this supposed to be a selling point?
So we’re supposed to be happy because it’s going to be Islamic AND socialist?
they’re gonna have a hard time offsetting the carbon discharge if the place mysteriously burns to the ground….. which would be a damn shame if it happened.
Madame Sissy, Queen of the Conservative Butt-kickers (trying to suck up a little for my screw up last week..
I still want to do something evil to that woman who tried to make a comparison between honor killings and mutilations and a woman in the U.S. who gets turned down for a job or felt up at the water cooler, but I’ll behave. At least for now.

Was wondering if you saw this at Newsbusters: http://newsbusters.org/blogs/nb-staff/2010/08/12/open-thread-three-things-you-should-know-about-islam It’s a video clip titled “Three things you should know about Islam”
It was posted there via the Right Scoop and is a VERY interesting little clip. Very informative, especially for the “Islam is peaceful on the inside” gang.
You probably already saw it, but it struck a chord with me for some reason. I knew most of the information on the clip as do most of the folks who are interested in the issue, I’m sure. But the part about taqiyya (as you mention above is Islam’s “get outta any lie free” card) I found to be particularly timely if one looks at our current president’s inability to tell the truth about ANYTHING. The way the narrator describes it, it sounds a lot like a game to see how much wool can be pulled over the infidels’ eyes before they wise up. With the State Department facilitating the imam’s fund raiser jaunt and Bloomberg’s speech popping up on the feds website, it’s interesting that there’s been no comment by Obama himself on the issue. To me, silence speaks volumes. And when you do hear an official talk about it, the lies are just so transparent it’s pathetic. In fact, I think, when it comes to this mosque deal, there’s a whole lotta taqiyya’in goin’ on.
I wish someone would plaster videos like this all over, along with posters, fliers, note cards, whatever, to FORCE people to understand what we’re dealing with.
I find it funny the 9/11 Commission Report found that there was a failure of “imagination” that led to the attacks. Today I believe that failure is still there, but it’s become a failure of understanding just what we’re dealing with. And the left is filled with people who are willfully ignorant, unwilling or unable to even consider that it might just be the folks who are claiming they’re peaceful bridge builders, not our military and/or the American people who are at the heart of the hate, violence and destruction.
I’ve considered the use of a rubber mallet on a few of them thinking maybe a little tappy tap tap to the melon might free up some space for actual knowledge… but I just don’t think it’d do any good.
*sigh* Keep up the good work, we need you folks out there. Thanks to you all.
Thanks, everyone, for your fun and funny comments. I agree with Joan of Argghh! “The Cordoba mosque will NEVER be built,” at least not until they pry that last slab of bacon from my cold, dead hands. Speaking of which: Ad Rem’s “Pig blood in the cement …” is sheer genius! I sent it out into the twittersphere this morning: http://bit.ly/a71PWk
red1c4: “they’re gonna have a hard time offsetting the carbon discharge if the place mysteriously burns to the ground….. which would be a damn shame if it happened.” Wouldn’t it, though. ;D
MadMonica, Catty Commenter. I hadn’t realized you’d screwed up last week, but what kind of a “Queen of the Conservative Butt-kickers” would I be to hold it against you? You are forgiven for past sins. As for our clueless friends from the wrong side of the aisle, their minds are hobbled by the politically correct gobbledygook that passes for their thinking.
The grave robbers of Ground Zero?
You ever wonder why no one with sense takes you seriously.
Salvage: Sit! http://bit.ly/d05rzD
Mosque, what mosque?!?!?!? Never heard of it!

-It’s never too early to campaign-
Sissy Willis…focus focus.
You’re taking too many of your boogeymen on at once here…Islam, Environmentalists…and even Al Gore.
What, no ACORN reference? What about the evils of Hollywood?
It’s clear that you are in opposition to certain things…a cliche list from your side of the aisle.
Beyond that, your posts are pretty incoherent.
(And you’ve got Ragspierre upset up health care again…in a post about a Mosque.)
It’s like there’s a Liberal Buzzwords checklist or bingo card that includes all of the left’s special causes and “victim” groups, and if you cover enough of ‘em, you win! We’ve already heard that this endeavor promotes religious “tolerance” and “diversity”, now it’s “green”. What next – will they be saving an endangered species, too? Perhaps it will have extra-special handicapped accessibility?
itsMike2Cents: Because your needs, like Salvage’s (above) are special, I offer you the same advice: http://bit.ly/cVn61a
Sissy Willis,
Your comebacks are pointless as your arguments.
This is all you got?
Yes, it is.
>will they be saving an endangered species, too?
Um… so that’s a bad thing is it?
It’s a ploy, dear.
A ploy…? So they really don’t want to save endangered species? Like the World Wild Life Federation are really a front for something?
Can you expand on that or are is this just crazy wingnut babble?
It really seems like it but I have an open mind, please explain I’m sure it will be fascinating and have something to do with Soros.
