Ground Zero Mosque Project May Be Dead…

A New York City construction worker who witnessed the terrorist attacks on 9/11 is very pleased the proposed “Ground Zero Victory Mosque” project has been stopped dead in its tracks.

Recently The Associated Press reported that Daisy Kahn, wife of Imam Feisel Abdul Rauf, said that they were “pursuing a new vision for the future.” Khan and Rauf had a major role in founding the mosque that was to be built near “Ground Zero” in New York City, but were effectively fired from the organization in January by fellow founder Sharif El-Gamal.

Andy Sullivan is a lifelong New York City construction worker and founder of the 9/11 Hard Hat Pledge — one of the groups working to prevent the construction of the mosque near where the World Trade Center once stood. He says despite El-Gamal’s reported commitment to move forward with the project, it is going to be tough to do without Rauf.

“Sharif El-Gamal is nothing but a thug from Brooklyn,” says Sullivan. “He doesn’t have the political weight, and he doesn’t have the following to attract that kind of funding [for a mosque].

“On the other hand, Imam Rauf did have that,” he continues. “This man was very popular all over the world and people were willing to give money. But because of the focus [when] we really zeroed in on where the [mosque] funding was coming from, people became gun-shy — and even Rauf couldn’t get any funding. To date I think they have $18,000 in their account for it.”

Sullivan says the 9/11 Hard Hat Pledge garnered 100,000 signatures in opposition to the mosque’s construction, which he believes helped slam the brakes on the project.
