"Why are Manhattan officials bowing to demands by a group called the American Society for Muslim Advancement to open -- on of all days, Sept. 11, 2011 -- a 13-story shrine to Islam in the shadow of the beautiful skyscrapers terrorists turned to ashes in the name of Islam? Why aren't they suggesting they do their Islamic 'advancement' someplace else? ... Aren't officials at least curious why these supposedly 'patriotic' Muslim activists named their planned $100 million mosque after the Great Mosque of Cordoba -- a legacy of Muslim Spain representing the zenith of Islamic dominance? There may be nothing to it -- except that a radical Islamic school in Virginia, raided by the feds after 9/11, also goes by that name. Cordoba University's founder was recently named an unindicted co-conspirator in a terror case. Symbolism is not lost on such jihadists." --Investor's Business Daily
