9-11 mosque posts
Mr Trump offers to buy the property
But no deal to move the mosque according to the developer.
Sharif El-Gamal, developer of Park51:
It is untrue that the community center known as Park51 in lower Manhattan is being moved.
The project will proceed as planned.
What is being reported in the media today is a falsehood.
Did crazy like a fox Pastor Jones force the developer to admit that the mosquites have no intention of moving even though Imam Rauf said last night that nothing is off the table?
O’BRIEN: Wouldn’t it further the goal of peacemaking, and you’ve talked a lot about it, to move it? Why is that an option that’s of the table now?
RAUF: Nothing is off the table, Soledad.
O’BRIEN: It’s not off the table?
RAUF: But we are consulting. We’re talking to various people about how to do this so that we negotiate the best and the safest option. As I mentioned–
Doesn’t sound like the developer has been consulted. And Rauf’s statement makes it quite clear there will be none.
