Pat Condell ably articulates everything that's wrong about the mosque at Ground Zero. Patrick Condell (born November 23, 1949) is a British writer and internet personality. http://www.jihadwatch.org/2010/06/pat-condell-on-ground-zero-mosque-is-it-possible-to-be-astonished-but-not-surprised.html |
Cant see vid (work firewall), but the mosque they are trying to build is not acutally at Ground Zero but a couple of blocks away...

“Let us not forget that Muslims were among those murdered on 9/11 and that our Muslim neighbors grieved with us as New Yorkers and as Americans,” Bloomberg said. “We would betray our values and play into our enemies’ hands if we were to treat Muslims different than anyone else.” http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2010-08-03/ground-zero-mosque-plans-move-forward-after-new-york-landmarks-panel-vote.html Refusing it would only be pandering to exteremists that despise Muslims. |
Insufficient descriptive text in OP, can you please add some information like who this guy is and a quick summary of what the video is about
edit: ta I watched a bit of it and it seemed indistinguishable from a random Islamophobe with a webcam braindumping his bigoted perspective on youtube |
Pat Condell is a "comedian", that has published some quite anti-islamist comments.
Well he is actually quite anti-religious in general. My issues are that he seems qualified to be a comedian (ie. not much else) and he is a vegetarian. |
If this is the same one that caused the kicking up of a huge fuss a year or so ago, there is actually already an established mosque closer to 'Ground Zero' then this one was planning to be.
|
1) its not a mosque, its a community/function centre that has a prayer room
2) its not at ground zero (not even on a surrounding block) 3) they have already built a prayer room in the wing of the pentagon that was bombed 4) bloomberg rejected it on the basis of its architecture |
His eyes look dead like Richard Dawkins'.

There's one thing worse than d*******s that film their rantings and post it on the intertubes as if anyone gives a s*** about what they think and that's people who bring said rantings to my attention as if they are topical and important and waste nearly a minute of my time before I work out what's going on and stop watching.
In short, give me my minute back f*****. |
And you think this is some sort of credential? Popularity on the internet, especially if it's a vlog or blog, is probably the least valuable reference for credibility there is. |
This bigot wouldn't have lost his last ounce of credibility if it wasn't for his obvious bigoted anti-islamic views.
What an alarmist a******. Hi infi. |
pat condell has a decent number of subscribers on the youtubes but i've never seen where the so-called comedy is, unless he's on a whole new level of satire that we mere mortals don't get
some of his stuff makes christopher hitchens look like ned flanders |
“That mosque could serve, as their program director made clear, as an example of respect for all people and a model of interfaith cooperation and that’s something that this city and this country needs desperately.”emphasis mine if they really want it to be an example of interfaith cooperation, why not have a Catholic, Jewish, Muslim & Hindu Church/Temple? Then in the foyer have the commonalities between them all? There are 13 floors - plenty of room! |

And one for the flying spaghetti monster. Is that scientology ? Or some new break away faith ? ... what is their position on bacon ? |
