NYC MAYOR BLOOMBERG'S OFFICE ABUSED POSITIONS TO HELP IMAM RAUF GAIN APPROVAL FOR MOSQUE

From Avi at the Astute Bloggers:

As this New York Post article tells, mayor Michael Bloomberg and his office staff, now rightfully looked upon in disgrace by many Americans, wrongfully used his standing to help the reprehensible imam Feisal Rauf to gain city approval for the mosque he wants to build at Ground Zero:
Dozens of e-mails between Mayor Bloomberg's aides and developers of the proposed mosque near Ground Zero reveal a cordial, if not downright cozy, relationship and the length to which a top city staffer went to help the project -- even drafting a letter for the group soliciting support from the community board, and providing the fax number to send it.

In one exchange, Community Affairs Commissioner Nazli Parvizi penned the draft of a letter to be sent by Daisy Khan, a key sponsor of the project known alternately as Cordoba House or Park51, to the chairperson of Community Board 1, Julie Menin, as the panel prepared to vote on its recommendation on the project.
Go read the whole thing.

This is utterly reprehensible. New York was the victim of the first attack. The mayor of this city, of all people, should be hyperaware and sensitive to any all possibility of future attacks.

This imam is in no way, shape or form to be trusted to the safety of New York. I foresee this mosque as a breading ground for future terrorists.

I only hope that when the future attack occurs, it in some way affects people like Peterson, personally.

How else will people with the brain of a Neanderthal, learn the truth about Islam.
