For the last few days, I’ve been avoiding writing about this commercial made by the National Republican Trust PAC. But it looks like it’s going to make the rounds in the news cycle, so here goes:
Apparently, there’s a proposal to build a mosque in lower Manhattan just a couple blocks from Ground Zero. The ad above, which NBC and CBS have refused to air, is pretty obvious in its opinion about the proposal:
The ad mixes images of 9/11 and Muslim militants while slamming a controversial proposal to build a mosque and Muslim community center in lower Manhattan.
“To celebrate that murder of 3,000 Americans, they want to build a monstrous 13-story mosque at Ground Zero,” the narrator says over images of the destroyed World Trade Center. “This ground is sacred, where we weep, they rejoice … that mosque is a monument to their victory.” [THR]
Wow. Just… WOW. I sometimes forget that people that ignorant and hateful actually exist. Of course, there’s a chance that the National Republican Trust PAC is just trolling the entire country, in which case: bra-vo. They probably hired the ad’s creative director off the 4chan message boards.
(Okay, I can’t help but add a more serious note on this: Ten years ago, I took a solemn oath to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” The NRT PAC is a genuine domestic enemy.
Not only does their ad preposterously link a single proposed mosque — a religious building in which American Muslims can worship under their Constitutionally-protected freedom — with the Al Qaeda terrorist network, but they also expose their own organization as a network of fear, ignorance, and hate — the same emotions that led to 9/11. And that’s the irony: anyone who so blindly hates another race or religion like that could never actually tolerate living in such a richly multicultural city as New York, could never know and love the people who lost their lives in the Twin Towers. So f*ck off, NRT PAC, and stop acting like you’ve got the sole rights to what America is.)

@catpuncher
Huh, I guess a billion Muslims can’t be wrong about everything.
@Holy Hell
@Holy Hell
Forget about conspiracy theory’s for a moment.
You mind addressing my above post or is it just easier to ignore because it’s not speculation and conspiracy but stated fact?
If you don’t feel like reading the above post I will write it down again for you.
What do you think about Sharia Law and the goal of Islam to have the entire world under rule of Islam and Sharia Law?
And I’m not talking the same way Christians want to ‘convert’. Sharia Law actual makes a point for Muslims in a land where they are a minority to be peaceful and obey the laws UNTIL they have a majority or fighting chance. Then it’s no longer pretending to be peaceful anything goes in the name of Islam if it’s against unbelievers. Don’t believe me? look it up.
Also would you address the fact that is accepted to keep your wife in-line by beating her in Islam.
@ Tim
What actual proof (not rumors or innuendo) do you have that this thing is linked to terrorists?
@ LMAFO
Again with this crap about the opening date for 9/11/11. Where the fuck are you getting this from? The fucking thing hasn’t even been approved to be built yet, and the only reference I saw to a building time said it would take 3 years to complete. As for what this guy said, is he wrong? Did US policies not help the rise of Osama and his organization?
Do assholes like Drizzle know that Matt was in the Marines and fought in Iraq? He laid his life on the line so fucktards like you can spout off moronic conspiracy theories about a mosque opening on 9/11/11.
The notion that commie-fag-libruls are allowing the incremental advance of some sort of Sharia hellscape is not only incredible, but also disregards our nation’s history of fending off tyranny. Look, you either believe in American exceptionalism or you don’t. We can handle this mosque. Harden the fuck up.
I heard a rumor that a mosque is being built inside the white house… can anyone confirm?
/sarcasm, please don’t storm into my mom’s basement FBI
MadMax, those are all very good points that most people either choose to ignore or are completely ignorant of to start with; however, please don’t knock beating your wife with a cane until you’ve tried it. My beers are now colder, sandwiches tastier and whites whiter than ever.
It appears the Emperor has already won…
Given who they are, they do not lack foresight, this is intentional. I mean come on…a guy with ties to several groups that the DOJ has labeled unindicted co-conspirators to terrorism, a guy who was on 60 Minutes less than a month after 9/11 asserting the US was an “accessory” to 9/11, and a target opening date of 9/11/11?
I think they have a right to build it. That said I do think it is in poor taste. It would be the same as if the Japanese tried to build a Japanese cultural appreciation monument at Pearl Harbor. Nothing wrong with celebrating Japanese culture. However, celebrating at Pearl Harbor however would be insensitive.
They builders of the mosque lack foresight.
@Holy Hell: whoaaa…do you have anything to back that up? it’s not linked to terrorists? He’s merely a long time NY resident who writes books and starts organizations? Have you read about this guy?
Christ on crutches, this thing isnt a fucking mosque, and it is not linked with terrorists. The imam leading the effort isn’t Osama’s BFF, he’s a longtime New York resident who writes books and starts organizations to try and create peace and understanding between Islam and the West. Which I’m sure means he’s some kind of sleeper agent, right, you crazy bigots?
For anyone who thinks Muslims are peaceful and will happily share the country with non-Muslims (infidels) needs to wake up. Read the Koran and learn about Sharia-Law. The goal of every Muslim is to convert ever non-believer and kill or reduce to second class status those that will not convert (once they’re majority). It’s also part of Sharia law to obey local laws and rules in generally do everything to fit in until Muslims have a majority and can install a theocratic state. Don’t take my word for it, research it yourself. It’s Muslim law, only peaceful until they have enough people in a land to take over. The goal of Islam is to not just bring it to the entire world but to have the entire world under rule of Sharia Law.
Also, Muslims advocate keeping your wife in line with the cane. Women that are to vocal are not beat enough. Again don’t take my word for it research it yourself.
For those to lazy to look things up I suggest watching this film; Islam: What the West Needs to Know
ISLAM IS NOT A PEACEFUL RELIGION.
I can’t help laughing at the fact that most of the people who are railing so angrily against this community center being built are the same people who think New York is a cesspool of faggy liberal socialist freaks who are bringing down America one abortion at a time. They’d be just happy if everyone in Manhattan jumped into the Hudson, but God for fucking bid any dirty muslims should build a place of worship there.
Mcveigh was a jew-hating,anti-semitic dickhead who hated America. He would’ve fit right in at any mosque in America.
Or your typical Tea Party rally.
@ Dude
Except for the fact that its not called the Victory Mosque, nor has it even been approved yet for construction, nor has it announced any opening date (for 9/11/2011 or any other day), and the fact that Bloomberg has given the project his full backing on grounds of religious freedom and government non-interference, you’re totally 100% correct.
But I really have to wonder why, in your mind, building a mosque is more likely to inspire a terrorist attack then angrily denying people the right to do whatever the fuck they want.
9/11 was an inside job anyway, you fucking tools. wake up from your left/right paradigm and focus on the true enemy.
matt, i think you should stick to tv… keeps out the crazies
So it’s just a COINCIDENCE that the Victory Mosque is set to open Sept. 11, 2011? Well, I do believe this mosque will attract ‘Peace Pilgrims’ from ALL over the Islamic world, and if they’re like previous ‘Peace Pilgrims’ they will look to leave their mark as well. NYC should bear in mind Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s contribution to this debate, because those who visit and wish to ‘show their feelings’ will likely do it locally. so Mayor Bloomberg’s actions (or failure to act) will likely have a DIRECT impact on the safety of the voters in NYC. (Please note, those pushing hardest for this Islamic Victory Memorial do not live in NYC.)
‘Amazing Grace’ on the bagpipes? ‘AMAZING GRACE’ ON THE BAGPIPES.
Wow phonin, your use of sarcasm is sooo cool and smart and funny I wanna be just like you when I grow up because I bet you have tons of friends! I mean only somebody who’s totally awesome and popular spends his free time reading blogs he clearly hates making “clever” and “witty” comments tearing down the writer rather than bringing any sort of real, intelligent debate to the table. I bet you get laid by hot chicks like, every day and that you’ve got a huge wang.
you sound like a real expert on freedom of religion when you aren’t trying to be smart or funny about entertainment. Didn’t realize you felt so strongly about the right to worship – oh, no you are somehow connecting this with some idea of diversity. Sure, that’s not embarrassing or incoherent.
Very informative. Truly insightful. Never really thought about hate being the cause of 9/11. Why can’t more people see things as clearly and simply as you? Why do they hate? Don’t they know, God is love? Hate is wrong and unconstitutional somehow?
I concur, Killlem, I mean fuk em all, I say too.
I am sure there is nothing more to this commercial or story than blind, incomprehensible hatred. Putting this sort of strong opinion, moralizing does not belong on my constitutionally protected sacred airwaves with their political speech (constitution shredders! where be our sworn protectors?). Why, it would be like the US erecting a trophy at Hiroshima!! How hateful.
Thanks for breaking it down for us, so we can avoid hard thoughts, feelings beyond love and hate, good and evil, and be certain and judgmental about the same things it’s okay to express other people’s feelings about, like you! Now more time for soft entereainfo, right?
“Not only does their ad preposterously link a single proposed mosque — a religious building in which American Muslims can worship under their Constitutionally-protected freedom — with the Al Qaeda terrorist network” – UM, actually…..this single proposed mosque is linked with terrorists (maybe not specifically al qaeda, but it is linked with terrorists). There’s a difference between linking an entire religion with terrorists and one mosque. Not all Muslims are terrorists, but the ones behind this mosque are. I suggest you do your research before making statements like this.
@jed i dont think you have much to worry about….the public outrage has been pretty intense. if that ad is fixed so its not anti-islam, it will get aired and people will learn about this, and oppose it
this mosque CANNOT stand
it will be the cambridge police incident all over
it will be interesting when the president is forced to take a position on this issue
the bigot argument is odd indeed. Even if a terrorist sympathizer was not behind this mosque, there seems to be a clear intent to target people affected 9/11. Of every parcel of land in the city of new york, you had to pick THAT parcel of land? The interpretation of Islam is debatable, but its not debatable that islamic terrorists fight in the name of Islam – whether they distort its teachings or not. It would strike me as an unconscionable display of disrespect to build a mosque here, not to mention intolerant and disingenuous, if even a mainstream mosque tried to go up there. Alas, that point is moot, because the guy behind this is basically a terrorist.
BTW 85: we are fighting terrorists who happen to ALL be muslims, and they are going to build a 13 story finger in the eye of the city they attacked on 9-11. If a christian organization wanted to build a church next to an abortion clinic that 19 of its members bombed, you same fuckers would be rattling the fucking roof about how it was insensitive and wrong.
No Tim, everyone is too busy telling us how bigoted and retarded we are to even broach the subject of the backers of this fucking mosque.They are calling it the “Cordoba” mosque; naming it after the center of Islamic conquest, and the center of the Islamic caliphate in the middle ages. I’ll bet thats all a coincidence, though, aint it samerochocinco? These fucking cockroaches are laughing at how quick some of you will prostrate yourselves to maintain your liberal bona fides. Oh, they are also going to open it on 9/11/11. Also a coincidence, aint it,samerochocinco?
….and still nobody pays attention to the the terrorist sympathizer behind this mosque
Your claim that because there’s a video decrying the largest attack on US soil ever (more deaths than Pearl Harbor) that the PAC must be filled with hate.
First, that’s your perception.
No. That’s what it is. There’s nothing more inseparable than hate and fear, and this is dripping with both. “Where we weep, they rejoice.” They. They rejoice. Muslims. Not Muslim terrorists. Are we still fighting terrorists in your world, or are we fighting Muslims?
There’s nothing sadder than people who don’t know what they’re afraid of, and make up for it by wrapping themselves in the flag.
How did they get Optimus Prime to do the voiceover for the ad?
Hate? Your claim that because there’s a video decrying the largest attack on US soil ever (more deaths than Pearl Harbor) that the PAC must be filled with hate.
First, that’s your perception. Obviously skewed, but all yours.
Second: The United States has been truly united with Nationalistic Pride a couple of times in history…a fact that’s no doubt behind the nation’s current problems.
If you want to live with extremist Muslims–who do not hate– then move. No, you’ll bitch bitch bitch, but cry foul if affected by something the magnitude of 9/11.
You’re saying, essentially, that if someone murdered your wife, mother, father, whatever, that you’d be willing to hang that person’s picture on the wall.
We’re so busy worrying about “hurting feelings” or “infringing on rights” that we can’t focus on becoming a great nation.
If I were you, so unhappy with America, I’d move. I hear Afghanistan is nice during the summer months.
Claudemtl, the moment we decide to do or not do something because of how “terrorists might see it”, then that is the moment that the terrorists have won.
While it is true that the people who would worship there (If it is a mosque, not a community center) are not terrorists, you can be sure that the terrorists (Who are Muslims), would see it as a victory, and that alone could make one rethink the whole idea. If the Muslim community does not want to be looked upon as sympathizers of terrorists, it shouldn’t help the enemy (There’s still a war going on, right?) feel vindicated…
@The Drizzle: At first I thought you were just paranoid and fearful of something you know, but now I realize you’re just retarded and you’ve got the anonymity of the Internet. I really need to stop feeding trolls.
Right, so I guess you’re not a fan of Mel Gibson then, which is surprising given that idiots tend to agree with each other. Night Einstein.
That’s cool Phil. Clearly you are not good with words, so I shouldn’t have taken your post seriously. By the way, I have close friends who are black too!
I had a decent response to your “points” (using that term loosely) here ready to go, then I realized something: I don’t have to answer jack shit to you, nor do I really want to. You come across as the kind of person that just denounces anything slightly off kilter with what he believes, and it’s one-track minded faux-intellectuals like you whom I try to avoid every day, for my sanity’s sake. Oh, and lovely usage of the word “retarded”. Guess it’s perfectly okay to stick up for one group while offending another. Might I also mention that many close friends of myself and my family are Muslim? I’m well aware that there are mosques in NYC, and if this one gets built then whatever, fine, no sweat off of my back, every religion should have equal rights. I’m done explaining myself, I’ve wasted more time on this than I cared to. Make what you want of my “awful” analogy, I just felt like saying what I said at the time. Sue me.
Y’all so stupid, Muslims are nothing to fear. Finding the Coalition for the Liberation of Itinerant Tree-dwellers is what we should really be worried about.
But Phil, please clarify: by ‘us’ I presume you mean the American government? Firstly, I don’t think the government builds Wal-Marts. Secondly, please explain which government is the equivalent ‘them’ in your comparison.
Alternatively, you can say that it is an awful analogy, on par with the video.
Even retarded logic by Phil! Hurray!
Now look, I’m not a hateful person, but people seriously want to build a mosque so close to Ground Zero?? That’s the equivalent of us building Wal-Marts over every major city or area that we’ve destroyed. Yeah, the commercial was a bit much, but I have to say I agree with the overall message.
Sooooo I wonder which religion has more deaths in its name, christianity or islam? Yes,I wonder.
I fail to see how this has anything to do with the 9/11 attacks. What’s the connection here? The attackers were muslims so all muslims are automatically evil? Some extremely retarded logic here.
I should mention that his name is Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf
Have any of you bothered to investigate the problem with this mosque? The objection is that a radical imam is behind this mosque – a man who has asserted that Bin Laden was “made in the USA” and that the US government was an “accessory to 9/11.” He is also associated with several groups that the DOJ has declared unindicted co-conspirators to terrorism. The problem with the ad is that it painted with too broad a brush – if the word “they” was clarified so it was obviously referring to those behind this mosque and not all Muslims, the ad would be fine. It’s painfully obvious that this miscreant selected this location with a purpose and the people of New York should not tolerate that.
And you can all stop with your constitutional arguments – nothing would prevent this group from erecting their mosque a few blocks away from ground zero.
BTW: Until I hear proof of Mcveigh yelling “Praise Jesus” and making a martyr video to Father Flanigan, dont even try and pretend that he was on the same kind of Religious mission your boys are. Mcveigh was a jew-hating,anti-semitic dickhead who hated America. He would’ve fit right in at any mosque in America.
@samerochocinco:A “statue in the corner erected by the catholic church” is EXACTLY the same as a 13-story victory mosque built near the very site of mass murder committed by the followers of your wonderful religion. How do you feel knowing the 950 million extremist muslims are making the 12 moderate ones look bad?
Hmm…Christians Upset, that the Muslims, are now doing what Christianity did…
I wonder why…
hmmm…
@The Drizzle: Is it hard to sleep at night? Your tin foil hat must be pretty noisy when you get into bed. Go fuck yourself.
I am a Muslim, and the fact that so many people are so full of hate against this mosque, even though there are already three or four that reside in NYC now, is disgusting and pathetic to me.
May I bring up an event that happened in 1995, and was the worst terrorist attack on American soil before 9/11? Some guy named Timothy McVeigh (I’m sure you remember him), who was a US Army veteran and also born Irish Catholic, killed over 160 people.
I bring this up because in the memorial that was built for the victims of the OKC bombing, there is a corner that has a statue erected by a Catholic church, and the church itself was almost ruined by the blast.
Also, like many of the commenters and Matt have said before, hate and fear is exactly what the terrorists want. Get your shit together.
There is more proof of bigfoot than there is the “peaceful muslims” you left wing assfaces constantly bring up any time muslims are trying to build their fucking global caliphate right under your noses. You can pat yourselves on the back, and congratulate each other on how noble your liberal viewpoint is, all you want; This fucking mosque is a thumb in the eye of the victims of 9-11, and these muslims fucks know it. That is why they are doing it. Their leftist, ass-kissing apoligists(some of whom are in these comments) will facilitate them.
Yikes, CC. PoFlaWas all over the place. That’s no way to spend a lovely Friday evening in July…
My last two cents- I hope they build the Democratic national headquarters, the ACLU headquarters, Habitat for Humanity, PETA and any other governmental giveaway agency next to it.
Oh, Hollywood can relocate there also.
To Lothars parents> Please monitor your child while they are on the internet!
Fucking idiots, get your crayons out and draw us a pretty picture.
If Reagan was still President…
WE’D HAVE A ZOMBIE IN THE WHITE HOUSE!
A ZOMBIE WITH ALZHEIMER’S!!!
Yeah, that’s the “solution” proposed by right-wing retards, all right.
@David C — Because all Muslims supported what happened to Daniel Pearl, right?
Do some people not realize that the terrorists killed innocent Muslims during 9/11 too?
10 years from now some dipshit liberal will be interviewed on TV and say “they seemed like perfect neighbors, so peaceful. Who knew they were capable of this destruction.”
Fuck you, you fooled us once. Why don’t you fight with us if the extremeists don’t represent your religion.
If Reagan was still President the whole middle east would have been bulldozed by now and gas would be .25 cents a gallon.
The writer of this post is of the most ignorant kind of person. If you want to know hate, google Daniel Pearl, dumbass.
If this 13th floor Victory Mosque is built, it will be only second to Mecca as a place of worship for all terrorists and want to be terrorists.
haha fart
It would be better to have a rational immigration policy that prevented people who are hostile to American values from arriving in the first place. Who exactly was saying “hey, the Muslim-world is so great, let’s import it here?”
“NY went back to work the next day, while Californians hid in a fucking vacuum for 2 weeks.”
I went back to work that day, bitch. It’s not Afraid of Terrorist Biz, it’s Show Biz.
“Burt” has a husband???
This is America. You don’t like it, you do what any honorable American would do and buy the building out from underneath them. Then legally fail to renew their lease. I’m getting sick and tired of everybody trying to convince everyone else to agree with their politics. That said, Islam is not a religion but a sociopolitical tool invented by Muhammad in order to unite the splintered tribal community of arabs he lived in under his rule. Or at least so I learned in Catholic school.
AWWWWWWWWWWWWW YEAH, MUTHA FUCKIN’ REC CENTER, SON!
NY went back to work the next day, while Californians hid in a fucking vacuum for 2 weeks.
Not sure I understand what that means. I would be much obliged if you could jump back on the soap box for clarification.
/surfs to work
/eats vegan breakfast
/kisses husband
I’m fine with the place, but I love the ‘its a community center’ line. So when is potluck night? i want to bring my famous ham casserole
I’m kinda torn. This is clearly offensive, but at the same time, I’m in favor of all opposition to building houses of worship, as people who believe in magical men in the sky deserve nothing but mockery and ridicule.
I come for the TV blogging, I stay for the contrived messages about Freedom and America.
So am I allowed to build a German beer hall next to the Wailing Wall or not?
Absolutely. After a day of wailing in the hot sun, those folks would love a frosty brew.
I wouldn’t stock up on too much pork sausage, though.
Hateful and ignorant, yes, but at the same time very convincing. Where do I sign?
TGoJW, but not as big of fad like todays silly bandz. They’re everywhere!
So am I allowed to build a German beer hall next to the Wailing Wall or not?
@ Upstate.. You didn’t just go all 2004 on us now did ya ? Back then, selling Stingers to Mosques was just a fad. Kinda like snap bracelets.
Stories like this is another reason why people might not want a mosque/cultural center built at ground zero.
http://www.nysun.com/editorials/the-albany-mosque/78564/
@Stepen: No way. NRJ clearly stated that he believed all Muslims to be responsible for 9/11 by saying “they”, as in those seeking to build the community center, killed thousands of people on 9/11.
Which is likely the stupidest thing said here since Tony Homo used to comment. And that’s a while back now.
A community center?!?! That’s even worse!
But seriously, someone call Channing Tatum so he can save the community center with his dance crew.
*Pete Campbell Approves*
I get the feeling the National Republican Trust isn’t on board with the whole “winning hearts and minds” thing.
Here’s the thing: (dusts of soap box and steps on up) I’m gonna be a while so grab a snack. There is already a Mosque in the existing structure they are renovating (not building) The Mosque occupies the ground floor of a 13 story building. They are building a community center in the same building. The NY Post originally ran with the story with half assed information and it snowballed from there. And here’s a fucking news flash for these idiots. Its a terrorists job by definition to terrorize. To instill fear. If you become afraid, then the terrorists win. The collective opinions on this matter and the fear mongers aren’t even NYers. NY went back to work the next day, while Californians hid in a fucking vacuum for 2 weeks. The only good thing that came out of 9/11 was that Hollywood actually shut the fuck up for a little while. NY will be fine without the collective opinions of a bunch of fear mongers and religious ideologists. (Steps off box, bows and moonwalks gracefully out of the picture)
If so, I apologize.
But after watching a video that lumped together the terrorists and all Muslim-Americans as the “they” who attacked “us,” I took that to be more of the same right-wing retardery.
@Otto
I could be wrong but I don’t think NRJ was saying that those who want to build this mosque/community center/whateverthefuckitis were directly responsible for 9/11. That’s just plain silly. He was making just pointing out Matt’s rather ironic follow-up.
We don’t take kindly to people peacefully practicing their chosen religion as guaranteed by the First Amendment ’round these parts.
how many muslims does it take to fly an airplane? 1.57 billion, give or take 1.57 billion.
My neighbors are installing an above ground pool.
I find this way more offensive than building a Mosque next to ground zero.
is it me, or is “The Audacity of Jihad” a ridiculous not-that-subtle allusion to Obama?
@Rick: Yeah, that’s the thing, it’s not even a mosque, it’s a community center. And there is already (and has been for years) a huge mosque in New York City, although it’s not in lower Manhattan.
I passed by during one of the recent protests, and observed that the hate-mongering protestors didn’t seem to mind buying water and Snapples from the dozen food carts operated exclusively by Muslims right across the street.
I live in Brooklyn, and there’s a mosque not far from my apartment. I have no problem with Muslims, and the from what they’ve told me, they feel very much the same way that Germans do about the Holocaust (it’s a horrific part of their past that they’re constantly reminded of and ashamed of such actions). We’re all supposed to have the right to practice our own religion with freedom and tolerance, it’d be un-Constitutional not to extend that right to the Muslims who’d congregate at the Ground Zero mosque/community center.
It’s almost as if they flew an airplane into a building and slaughtered thousands of innocent people.
Yes, dipshit, the Muslim-American citizens who live in lower Manhattan and are seeking to build this community center were the ones who flew the planes on 9/11.
It’s also o.k. to hate the Swiss. If they hadn’t invented the clock, I’d still be in bed, dreaming!
Jesus Fucking Christ.
What’s next? Do we let the locals vote on whether or not Jews can build a synagogue in bumfuck Alabama?
“Wow. Just… WOW. I sometimes forget that people that ignorant and hateful actually exist.”
I know, right? It’s almost as if they flew an airplane into a building and slaughtered thousands of innocent people. Oh wait. . .
Replace the words “NRT PAC” with “Jon Bois” and that could have been a comment when Matt was on vacation.
It’s actually a community center. Not a mosque. Though there will be prayer space. My favorite story about the protest against the building is that two Coptic Christians from Egypt showed up at the street protest to participate. And they got booed and heckled at by their fellow protesters who assumed they were Muslim.
So only on ABC then. During The Bachelorette I would imagine.
Oh yes. Canadians killed JFK, after all.
It’s still okay to hate Canadians, right?
