Why not let 'em build a mosque at Ground Zero? Gaza youth concert honors suicide bombers, praises the murder of Jews and Christians

Let me say this for the record -- and I'll use small words so that the progressives can follow along -- the Ground Zero mosque is not a First Amendment issue as Bloomberg (not the news service, the idiot mayor) insists.

The imam in question has endorsed the implementation of sharia law in the United States. By his own admission then, the brand of Islam he wishes to practice is not a religion -- it is a political system. It is a legal system unto itself that rejects the Constitution and the American form of government. Thus, there is absolutely no "separation of church and state" issue.

It's as if persons of Japanese descent insisted on building a temple at Pearl Harbor in 1942 that was dedicated to the practice of military Shintoism. It would have been as unacceptable then as the Ground Zero mosque is unacceptable now. It is a political statement, pure and simple.

Oh, and the Ground Zero imam also supports Hamas. This is the same delightful group of genocidal mass murderers who have as their stated mission the destruction of Israel and the wanton killing of Jews and Christians. And I'd be willing to bet the imam in question also supports the indoctrination of youth into his ideology of destruction.

A Jordanian children's musical troupe well-known for songs that glorify "martyrdom" in battle with Israel was to perform a rare outdoor concert in the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip on Tuesday.

The group, known as The Birds of Paradise, recently produced a music video circulated on the Internet in which a young girl sings, "When we die as martyrs we will go to heaven."

On a stage made to look like a Palestinian village children dressed as Israeli soldiers "massacre" civilians before the camera switches to a grown man singing, "Children you have fulfilled your religious obligation... You have taught us the meaning of manhood."

Thousands were expected to attend the concert at 9:00 pm (1800 GMT), and another performance was scheduled for Wednesday... [the troupe's television] channel shows music videos and cartoons glorifying the killing of Israeli soldiers, as well as a children's show with a Mickey Mouse-like character that encourages martyrdom and armed struggle leading to the destruction of Israel.

Say -- I've got an idea: let's have 'em build a mosque on the Arizona border!
