With no shortage of dysfunctional and corrupt politicians in collusion with Muslims living in New York City and abroad who are more than happy to support this juncture, I do not believe for a minute that there is a shortage financial funding for the construction of this mosque. Furthermore, all Americans, not just New Yorkers should not under estimate the determination of those behind its construction either.
There are far too many donors who would give their all to secure the construction of this this mosque simply to rub our faces in the tragedy of September 11, 2001. For them the Cordoba mosque would be the coup de gras.
Where is the money coming from to build this monstrosity and how much of it is connected to the war on terror?
“Dreams by a Muslim group to build a mosque near Ground Zero may not match its means.
The ambitious and immediately controversial proposal to create the $100 million religious and cultural center does not seem to be backed by any cash.
The American Society for Muslim Advancement, which proposed the center, has assets of less than $1 million, according to its most recent audited financial statement.
A sister organization, the Cordoba Initiative, listed assets of less than $20,000 in 2008. Its tax filings do not disclose at least $60,000 in private contributions, a Post analysis found, raising questions about where the money went.
Deep-pocketed benefactors who have supported the groups in the past include the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, Saudi Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal’s Kingdom Foundation, the government of Qatar and the World Economic Forum. But some of the foundations have already backed away from the mosque, which is to be called Cordoba House.
The driving forces behind the project, Feisal Abdul Rauf — a usually media-savvy imam — and his wife, Daisy Khan, have been tight-lipped on financing. They have said in brief statements that fund-raising has not started, donors have not been identified and that the Kingdom Foundation has no involvement.
‘Cordoba House will be a new entity whose funding sources will be independent from the funding sources of ASMA and Cordoba Initiative,’ Khan said.
Opponents are suspicious about who will foot the bill.
‘I’d like to know who the hell is funding it,’ said Bill Doyle, a leading advocate for families of those killed on 9/11. ‘There’s no question in my mind that somehow the rich Saudis are going to be approached.’
Zuhdi Jasser, president of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy in Phoenix, called a mosque by Ground Zero poor judgment and said he worried about overseas funding….”
The Ground Zero Mosque Must be Stopped
“The Imam of the Ground Zero Insult, Faisal Abdul Rauf, is not the nice guy he likes to hold himself out to be…
…During a recent Friday sermon, this writer did due diligence as a mosque monitor and heard Rauf deny that Muslims perpetrated 9/11. In an interview with CNN shortly after 9/11, Rauf said, “U.S. policies were an accessory to the crime that happened. We (the U.S.) have been an accessory to a lot of innocent lives dying in the world. Osama bin Laden was made in the USA.” Elsewhere, Rauf has stated that terrorism will only end when the West acknowledges the harm it has done to Muslims. And that it was Christians who started mass attacks on civilians. …
The mosque is called Cordoba House. Muslims like to refer to Spain and especially the city of Cordoba as a place where Muslim rule reached a glorious peak. Contrary to the myth of a Golden Age of equality during the Muslim occupation of Spain and in particular in Cordoba, Spain and Cordoba were places where Christians and Jews suffered as social inferiors under Islam oppression.”
