The ADL which is a Progressive front group that smears Conservatives as anti-Semites while ignoring the Left’s anti-Semitism, gets this one issue right. The saying that a broken clock is right twice a day holds true here. They have come out against the Ground zero 9/11 Mosque.
We categorically reject appeals to bigotry on the basis of religion, and condemn those whose opposition to this proposed Islamic Center is a manifestation of such bigotry.
However, there are understandably strong passions and keen sensitivities surrounding the World Trade Center site. We are ever mindful of the tragedy which befell our nation there, the pain we all still feel – and especially the anguish of the families and friends of those who were killed on September 11, 2001.
The controversy which has emerged regarding the building of an Islamic Center at this location is counterproductive to the healing process. Therefore, under these unique circumstances, we believe the City of New York would be better served if an alternative location could be found.

I disagree with the ADL’s assertion that standing up against Islamic Imperialism is bigotry. The Colonialists are the bigots with their Arab based Caste system. I do agree with the rest of their analysis that it’s an insult to the victims families of 9/11 to set up this abomination. I salute the ADL for being on the right side for once.
