- A quote from that CBS interview reveals another lie by el-Gamal: Pelley: Did it occur to you when you were putting this together that that was two blocks too close to a place that many, many people feel very strongly about? El-Gamal: Not at all. It did not even cross my mind once. REALLY?! It did NOT cross his mind - not even once? Is that why he pursued this purchase for EIGHT F**King YEARS?! Recall also this deceiver also claimed: ". . .In July 2009, the real estate company and developer Soho Properties, led by Sharif El-Gamal purchased the Burlington building “, initially planning to build a condominium complex at the site.” So, the msm simply ignores these inconsistencies so as to avoid confronting the reality facing them. Insert long string of foul profanity here.
- Oh, and by the way - El-Gamal was not doing business as SoHo Properties when he purchased 1/2 the property and leased the other 1/2. The contract was made between the Pomerantz family and and a newly minted Llc - 45 Park Place Partners Llc. This Llc - limited liability corporation - has some unusual paperwork - in that this application lists "Registered Agents" as "None". New York State rules for Registered Agents mentions the following: Quote: ". . .Every state requires that an LLC organized under its laws have a registered (or "resident" in some states) agent at a physical location within the state. The purpose is for the government to be able to deliver official documents to the LLC. The most likely documents are tax forms and notice of lawsuits." Also Quote: " . . .The registered agent must have a physical address in New York, a Post Office Box or Drop Box is not acceptable. If the registered office includes a suite number, it must be included in the registered office address." I don't know how significant that detail is, but it is clearly missing information that is required by law. About that eight years of negotiating, lusting for the prize . . . The son of a bank executive, El-Gamal has said he turned to Islam after 9/11 and that his religious awakening followed a troubled youth. -New York Daily News Still think it NEVER CROSSED HIS MIND?

Hi Pastorius.
The main question is why is none of the main media digging deeper in this guy's past?
The guy treathens a Canadian woman ,and the people who sell the property pass on a 18 million $ offer to sell to him?Sounds more like an Al Capone story by the minute.
I don't think this guy is the brains behind this operation. But, what do I know.
Stunner: GZM Developer With Criminal and Deadbeat Tax History Also Has Shoddy Building Record
Every day it's another revelation with this guy. He's been arrested at least seven times that we know of, owes nearly a quarter million dollars in back taxes [ed:NYC Finance Quarterly Statement of Account
lists amount due as $324,918.59] and today we learn buildings he already owns have shoddy safety and construction records. Yet still the majority of the media blithely ignores his dubious history and presents him as some peaceful guy just looking to build bridges.
The developer behind the planned Ground Zero mosque already has a lousy record with the city Buildings Department -- racking up $24,650 in fines for safety and construction violations at a Washington Heights apartment building that his firm owns.
The violations involve some of the department's more serious charges, from cracks running the height of the six-story, brick walk-up to blocked exits and fire escapes, falling mortar and an unstable chimney, city records show.
"Every time it rains, I set a pan on my bed and another one on the floor," said Don McCants, 61, a truck driver and longtime tenant of the building owned by mosque developer Sharif El-Gamal and his firm, Soho Properties.
"It's no drip, drip, drip, either," he lamented. "It comes down fast."
Since 2008, there have been 21 code violations at the building at 504 W. 159th St., which El-Gamal and Soho Properties purchased the previous year. Of these, nine violations are still open, and $19,500 in fines are unpaid.
El-Gamal did not respond to a call for comment. A receptionist at his firm suggested writing an e-mail with questions to the Web site for the proposed mosque and community center, called Park51. There was no response to the e-mail, either.

Buildings Department records show that El-Gamal has been renovating apartments in the 21-unit, rent-stabilized building. On five occasions, inspectors ordered him to stop work because of hazardous conditions for tenants and neighbors or a failure to get city approvals.
In December 2008, inspectors ordered all work at the building stopped due to "a failure to safeguard all persons and property affected by construction operations." El-Gamal was cited later that month for ignoring the stop-work order.
The most recent violation was handed out June 24, when inspectors found blocked fire escapes and passageways.
The city Department of Housing, Preservation and Development also has issues with the property, slapping it with 47 violations involving health and maintenance issues.
The violations, all of which are still open, range from unabated lead paint to plumbing malfunctions to problems with falling plaster and missing floorboards.

Feisal Abdul Rauf was the son of Egyptian Imam and Sunni scholar Muhammad Abdul Rauf (1917–2004) who was related to Muslim Brotherhood jihadi Abdul Munim Abdul Rauf who attempted to assassinate Nasser in 1954. As a result the Brotherhood was made illegal in Egypt. Following this Rauf and five other Brothers were executed, and four thousand Muslim Brotherhood members were arrested. President Nasser would be exposed to three more assassination attempts before he died of a heart attack on September 28, 1970.
