President Obama Supports 'Ground Zero Mosque'

[callmeslick]

That mosque is gonna cost $100m. It's only right to ask someone where the money to build it is coming from.

why? When you get a contract to build or remodel a home, do you demand to know where the sources of the money are?

Keep in mind the mayor of NY is Bloomberg

The bloomberg from bloomberg not another Bloomberg. He probably has more power than Obama.

If he allows it there are good reasons to it. Reasons which have already been stated by yours truely. I'm not sure this kind of people are the most islamofriendly fucks. It's so bleedingly obvious that they want to rile you tards up.

I think I found out why they are going to attack Iran. There has been a huge round of speculation on oil. Many tankers were making rounds in the sea until the price was good enough to sell it. I'd have to check if they are still offshore and waiting but they can start a new round of speculation just before. Demand has been low and the price of oil remained moderately low.

What will oil prices do once iran is attacked? I bet it will go over the 100$ mark in the blink of an eye. (even if Iran is just the 7th oil reserves and it wouldn't impact the prices so much as slick pointed out). All they want is a context in which they can speculate on oil and blame it on the attack on Iran

Bear with me:

> Rile up the good ole american against muslims in general (oh yeah it works, as evidenced here, and yes it's only one of severl attempts to soften public opinion)
> Put a bogus excuse about a civilian reactor that can create low grade nuclear material at best (oh noes they can make a dirty bomb)
> Attack Iran (or have Israel and some B2s attack)
> Watch the prices of oil skyrocket and blame it all on Iran and OPEC in general if need be.

We'll see soon enough how it turns out.

There are laws against using money that comes from terrorist organizations. The odds that someone building a home with Hamas or Al Qaeda money are slim to none. Mosque: more likely.

Rugg, dubious reasoning given the group of moderates involved.

Nic, you are correct that every time the US even gets to sounding militaristic with Iran the oil price jumps.
Note, that happened FAR more under Bush than with Obama. Then again, only one of those two had close family ties with the oil business........

Obama has ties to oil as well..................

Except this time it's wall street that's going to profit. No need to have links with the oil business.

not on the Bush level. Whatsoever.

Including Obama the last 7 presidents have had ties to oil....and yes, Both Bushes had greater ties to oil in their past, before they became president.....so, what?

We need to ramp up our own domestic production of oil...now. I for one am tired of this country being held hostage by damn near total dependence on the importation of foreign oil....and don't give me that shit, that we don't have oil......

[callmeslick]

if you aren't going to listen the geological fact, Pud, why should I mention it. BTW, our largest source of oil is that scary menace.......




......Canada.
