WPIX TV Interview with Pamela Geller on Daisy Khan /Rauf Cancellation of Cordoba Event Exploiting 911 Tragedies for Shameless Promotion

18

I was interviewed earlier today concerning our victory over the shameless and vicious Ground Zero mosqueteers, who had intended to exploit 911 stories to further their grotesque supremacist Ground Zero organizations, Cordoba and ASMA, in a coldblooded act of shameless self-promotion.

"We're so relieved," 911 family member Rosaleen Tallon said Wednesday afternoon.

"We don't want 9/11 exploited by the Cordoba Initiative to further their effort to build a mosque at Ground Zero," Tallon said earlier in the day, before the show was canceled. "This is very upsetting to us." Read more: here

Here is the statement from the 911 families concerning the cancellation of this gruesome display:

"9/11 Parents and Families of Firefighters and WTC Victims" and " Advocates for a 9/11 Fallen Heroes Memorial" are most gratified to announce that tonight's showing of  "Performing Tribute", performed by WTC Tribute Center docents and sponsored by Cordoba Initiative and ASMA, is Canceled.
 
We are most relieved to know that our loved ones' memory will not be exploited by the Cordoba Initiative and others who support the construction of a mosque and cultural center at Ground Zero. 

Thank you to all family members and friends that responded to our call to attend this event.  We ask that all family members remain vigilant, and  join together to speak out against those individuals and groups who feel that  to "go along to get along" is better than honoring the 3,000 innocent people who died on 9/11/01.

CANCELLED! Daisy's Con Could Not Stand Scrutiny and Scorn by 911 Family Members Who Objected to Play Sponsored by Taxpayers for Ground Zero Mosque Group 

911 Families Publicly Denounce Rauf and Daisy Khan's Cordoba Event Exploiting 911 Tragedies for Personal Gain

Ground Zero Mosquerade: Rauf and Daisy's Theatre of the Vicious

the 911 families who spoke out: Members of "9/11 Parents and Families of Firefighters and WTC Victims" and " Advocates for a 9/11 Fallen Heroes Memorial" are shocked and appalled  that a play, Performing Tribute which is closely identified and aligned with the "September 11th Families' Association Tribute WTC Visitor Center"  is now being promoted and presented by Daisy Kahn. The play will be performed at an Interfaith Center located at the address of the  Cordoba Initiative & ASMA offices, 475 Riverside Drive, NYC, on Wednesday, March 2nd, at 6:30PM.
 
Ms. Kahn and The Cordoba Initiative are the driving force behind the renamed  "Park 51" cultural center and mosque project which has been the focus of great consternation and grief for many 9/11 family members. Uniformed and civilian family members have asked Cordoba for tolerance, understanding and sensitivity to the feelings of the majority of families who are deeply offended by the thought of a mosque and cultural center at this site. FDNY, NYPD and civilian family members have joined thousands of others to demonstrate against building this structure so close to the sacred ground of the WTC site.
 
Our family members will not allow the memory of the lives and deaths of their loved ones to be used as a tool for the Cordoba Initiative.  To use this play to imply  a "dialogue with 9/11 families" as a basis for obtaining funding from the LMDC and other sources across the country for an Islamic center at GZ, is a disingenuous travesty.
 
The vast majority of 9/11 family members oppose this building. We will continue to speak out to oppose the co opting of the narrative of 9/11 by self serving individuals and groups.  We will not allow the story of 9/11 and the lives and deaths of our loved ones to be hijacked for the shameless self promotion of those individuals and groups whose  goal is to build an Islamic center and mosque near the sacred ground.
 
The memory of our loved ones, who lived and died for this country on 9/11, deserves nothing less.
 
*Family members will attend this play and will be available to discuss their viewpoints before and after the performance .

Great Job Ms. Geller. For your credentials, you should add Human Rights Leader of SIOA. As always Ms. Geller, feel free to use any and all info from Jew Lover’s comments. We require no attribution.
Can’t believe the BS others said about …. to educate the Muslim community.
The Islamic Supremacist Hate Group CAIR won’t like the following.
It is NOT Islamaphobic to HATE the following atrocities that Muslims are allowed to commit in Islam per the Koran, Mohammed, Hadith, and Sira:
Pre-Pubescent Child Rape (65:4), Sex Slaves (4:24), Rape (24:13), Amputation and Crucifixion (5:33), Beheading (8:12, 47:4), Wives Beating (4:34) and Wives Raping (2:223), Theft and Robbery (entire Chapter 8 of Koran called Booty), Extortion (9:29), Lying (3:28, 5:51), Stoning to Death for Adultery (Sahih Muslim 17.4206),..etc.
There are ONLY 3 choices regarding Islam: Pro-Islam, Anti-Islam, Neutral-Islam.
If you are Anti-Islam, you agree that the above acts are atrocities.
If you are Pro-Islam, you agree that the above acts are OK for Muslims to commit.
If you are Neutral-Islam, you don’t care one way or the other if the above acts/atrocities are perpetrate against YOU by Muslims.
Why do people hate child molesters, yet tolerate Muslims raping pre-pubescent children as Islam allows per Koran (Chapter 65 Verse 4 – 65:4)?
Why do people hate sex slavery, yet tolerate Muslims raping sex slaves as Islam allows per Koran (4:24)?
Why do people hate decapitation, yet tolerate Muslims beheading us Infidels as Islam allows per Koran (8:12, 47:4)?
If you hear Jews yelling “Moses Rocks” you needn’t worry.
If you hear Christians yelling “Jesus Saves” you needn’t worry.
Typically the last thing Infidels hear before getting slaughtered is Muslims yelling Allah Akbar.

Unfortunately this news story comes across as an advertisement for the Cordoba initiative. See how the reporter emphasized “SOME!!!” of the 911 victim families had a problem with this event. Then goes on to explain how they recieved grants from the city and then gives a plug for when the next show is going to occur.

Daisy was trying not only for financial but also emotional jizya, using the emotions of their victims for their personal gain. Despicable!

So, just wondering, what is the current status of the Ground Zero mosque? Is it still a go? Has building begun? If there’s one thing I’ve learned about most Americans is that when it comes to news, out of sight is definitely out of mind. This is one news story that must remain in the forefront if it is to be defeated. Especially for those Americans living outside NY.

How completely disingenuous of Daisy Khan,of the Cordoba Initiative,
and of ASMA! They say they arranged the venue to “educate the Muslim
community about the impact of the attacks.”???What on earth?
You see, that is the problem! Holy Mackeral!
Anyone with half a brain would know the impact
without needing a “play” to spell it out for them.
So now can you see how this is such rotten B.S.?, even for you liberal bloggers?
Man-O-man!
Up to now, almost ten years later, they need a play for
education? I think it’s fair to say, given that perspective,
that one can only conclude that Muslims are largely in
dangerous denial concerning who might be among them, here in America,
to destroy the west from within. After ten years? Towers fell down,
millions of lives were changed that day, thousands died, and
true believers of Allah did all the damage and carnage. What more
is there to say??
Pamela didn’t create her film to educate America about 9/11, she made
her film to insure that people never forget, because as disgusting
as it sounds, Khan and her group of insensitive thugs, keep doing
everything within their might to erect a tower of triumph in the name
of Allah, in the exact place where one of the landing gear from one of
the rocketed planes landed. If there was a spot on the sight of GZ for
sale, I know they would have tried to build their triumphant Mosque there.
I wish I could be in Time Square on Sunday to stand with everyone
who knows that this mosque is a flag to the Islamic world, screaming
out triumph! Don’t let that happen!

My heartfelt thank you Pamela for all you do in bringing this information to the public. I think the above poster is right when he said: For many Americans-“out of sight is out of mind”. We try to pass along as posters much of what you, and Robert Spencer @JihadWatch.org bring to us. The political correctness in America is getting us into deep trouble(IMO) so the more we have people like you, Pamela and Robert bringing the issues to light and publically appearing on radio and tv, the better. I wish I were one of the people who rallied against the “9/11 Victory Mosque” when you both have been there. I ask and pray for your safety and continued courage, in bringing daylight to this henious cult.
Thank you again….

BTW: Just curious-WHY are we so stupid in the U.S. in ALLOWING that demented character Choudary into our country? Why are we being again, so politically correct-when certainly HE is NOT? This kind of presence is NOT needed in our nation, and should NOT be permitted. These are hateful people that get to have a platform here in America, and it is NOT for the good of our country-WHO, then, is to STOP this INSANITY and THE ESPOUSING OF THEIR HATRED AGAINST OUR PEOPLE AND COUNTRY?

It is interesting to watch how Con, Imom Rauf etc. change names (Cordoba is now park 51), accuse people critical of them of “hate” (making “hate” a political term). Meanwhile Islam condones female genital mutilation (90% of women in Egypt have been victims), as well as honor killings etc. But critics of such things (Pamela e.g.) “hate” because they speak the truth.
(The truth is that Con etc. and Islam should not be tolerated. Islam does not deserve hate, but it does deserve criticism, mockery and ridicule for its real nature.)
Lately, i’ve rediscovered Orwell and realize how insightful he was re the abuse of language, and the manipulation of public perception that results from the abuse of language (“hate” e.g.). In 1984 Orwell invents “thought-crime” to describe the charge used to suppress critics of the totalitarian regime.
In Animal Farm the exploiters-criminals suppress facts, twist language, change the names of their projects, present themselves as benefactors dedicated to disinterested principal, and often succeed because of mindless uncritical PC fools.
———–
In Animal Farm “Four legs good, two legs bad” was gradually reworked (as were other slogans) until “Four legs good, two legs bad” became “four legs good, two legs better” after the pigs achieved their objective, and then the pigs openly stood on their hind-legs, revealing they were liars and oppressors all along:
Orwell:
“He (Napoleon the pig now) carried a whip in his trotter.
There was a deadly silence. Amazed, terrified, huddling together, the animals watched the long line of pigs march slowly round the yard. It was as though the world had turned upside-down. Then there came a moment when the first shock had worn off and when, in spite of everything-in spite of their terror of the dogs, and of the habit, developed through long years, of never complaining, never criticising, no matter what happened-they might have uttered some word of protest. But just at that moment, as though at a signal, all the sheep burst out into a tremendous bleating of-
“Four legs good, two legs better! Four legs good, two legs better! Four legs good, two legs better!”Orwell, Chapter 10 Animal Farm
————
Cordoba House is Orwellian House.

Orwell was very preceptive on the abuse of language. The GZ-Cons (imom Rauf and El Sham e.g.) use Orwellian terms that really mean nothing (“Islamophopia”-‘racism”-“hate” e.g.). They are political definitions or terms with a political intention. They are never analytical. (The SPLC is similarly Orwellian in its use of words, definitions.)
Logic is about defining terms.

For an eye opening analysis of Orwell’s 1984 read Anthony Burgess’s 1985.
The first half of the book deconstructs Orwell’s prescient masterpiece, the second presents an alternative vision with Britain renamed Tucland (the TUC is in reality the Trades Union Congress) and run by a collaboration of socialists, the unions and Arabs.
Sound familiar? Eurabia or Obama’s vision for America spring to mind.
