U.S. May Escort Ahmadinejad To Ground Zero

This is evil duplicity and irony of Biblical proportions. I'm going to let Charles put it in his words, because no one could do it better:


Here’s one of those stories that makes you feel as if you’ve woken up in the Twilight Zone: U.S. May Escort Ahmadinejad to Ground Zero.

In a move that has stunned New York, the Bloomberg administration is in
discussions to escort the Iranian president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, to ground zero
during his visit to New York next week, Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said
today.

The Iranian mission to the U.N. made the request to the New York
City Police Department and the Secret Service, who will jointly oversee security
during the president’s two-day visit. Mr. Ahmadinejad is scheduled to arrive
September 24 to speak to the U.N. General Assembly as the Security Council
decides whether to increase sanctions against Iran for its uranium enrichment
program.

Mr. Kelly said the NYPD and Secret Service were in discussions
with the Iranian mission about the logistics for the possible visit, and whether
it will take place at all. He said Mr. Ahmadinejad would not be allowed to
descend into the pit for safety reasons related to ongoing construction there.

“There has been some interest expressed in his visiting the area,” Mr.
Kelly said. “It’s something that we are prepared to handle if in fact it does
happen.”

What the hell is wrong with these people?

I’m aghast that they would even consider this for one second. Don’t let this happen, New York. There could be no greater disrespect toward the people who lost their lives in the collapse of the World Trade Center than to let this thuggish Islamofascist defile their memory.
