Public Relation troubles continue for plans on the Muslim 9/11 Bomb Memorial in NYC as the second Imam spokesman for the project was forced to resign after yet more inflammatory statements enraged all New Yorkers, with the exception of the Mayor, Michael Bloomberg.
Saying that all Homosexuals were abused as children, causing their 'affliction', and that all 'non believers' should be put in jail, the Imam responsible for marketing the "Mosque" as a place for 'spiritual understanding' in order to overcome public disgust at having the structure a block away from the felled World Trade Center that was brought down by terrorists, was forced out of his role.
This marks the second religious 'scholar' forced to resign for trying to impose Sharia mentality over the US's belief in freedom of religion and separation of Church & State.
The US citizen listed as the "Real Estate Developer" whose name can not be mentioned here due to column inch restraints, now says he may give up the venture, and instead turn the building site into a used rug store.
On hearing the news, VP Joe Biden and NY Financial Guru Donald Trump both applauded the news.
Speaking off the cuff at a retirement fundraiser for "Patches" Kennedy, Ted's son, at a local Providence Rhode Island drinking establishment featuring nude waitress mud wrestling events, Biden said, " Hey....that's a big.....well you know what kind of a deal! I'm in the market for a new rug myself.....especially if they can match the hair plugs I've got left!"
Said Trump, after interviewing Justin Bieber for a role on his show "The Apprentice", 'I've been thinking of a new doo myself.....maybe a good shag would cheer me up and improve my image!"
Mayor Bloomberg expressed disappointment yet again. Facing billions in budget shortfall thanks to years of Democratic graft & cronyism, he said he wasn't giving up hope the Mosque construction would go ahead.
"Hey,' he said, " it will bring in millions of real estate tax dollars, put a lot of our illegal immigrants to work, especially from Malaysia and Pakistan, destroy the Italian Mafia control over the waste industry, the Jewish Mafia control over delicatessens and Bagel shops, and the Irish Mafia's control over the Brick Layers Union."
"As far as the Russian Mafia, I'm preparing to sign a non-proliferation treaty with them and they've promised to limit their activities to Long Island...which is a world away as far as I'm concerned!"
Bloomberg also said he had a ' Plan B' if the rug deal went south.
"We're in extended negotiation with the Karzai family cartel who are interested in locating their world wide financial center in down town NY...it all hinges on whether or not we can find a family member not under investigation for fraud to qualify for the liquor license at the proposed roof top rotating go-go bar.
A clerk at the city's Building & Licensing board said the bar was tentatively named "The LaBomba Lounge" and a pyrotechnic license was also pending a review by the Fire Marshal.
