The Taliban vs. the Mosque - Using for recruitment
Edited on Mon Aug-30-10 09:51 AM by RamboLiberal
Taliban officials know it’s sacrilegious to hope a mosque will not be built, but that’s exactly what they’re wishing for: the success of the fiery campaign to block the proposed Islamic cultural center and prayer room near the site of the Twin Towers in lower Manhattan. “By preventing this mosque from being built, America is doing us a big favor,” Taliban operative Zabihullah tells NEWSWEEK. (Like many Afghans, he uses a single name.) “It’s providing us with more recruits, donations, and popular support.”

If we really wanted to give Al Qaeda and the Taliban the finger the dumbasses would've said hey we have freedom of religion in U.S. Build your Islamic Centers, build your mosques. Nope, instead we have RW fools who act just like the Taliban.
