now it transpires that a key money - man behind the proposed Ground Zero mosque is a one-time supporter of a group shut down by the feds because it was a front for Hamas.
We've already discussed this Cockney.
You (or the New York Post's editor) have made a tenuous link which really doesn't 'prove' anything. It's a classic case of 'guilt by association', the logic behind which would also see Fox News (another source you used concerning this story) have links to Hamas.
It's stupidity.
Oh, and getting news from the New York Post . . . Bravo.
“already discussed this Cockney”
Have you……..so that makes it OK.?
I think you have a few wired crossed here or there, or a few loose screws, or are self- opinionated, self absorbed individual. Which ever way you care to look at it.
By your assumption, if you don't like or approve of my point of reference, then it's no good.
The New York Post, established on Nov. 16, 1801 as the New-York Evening Post, describes itself as the nation's oldest continuously published daily newspaperYou have issues with that for some unknown reason. Quite astounding
So if we go with the publication of your choice, all it is acceptable. Why is your choice of news source better than anyone else’s
"Therefore, using your logic (and theirs), the New York Post has ties to Hamas”
I think you have some issues that need to be dealt with after that kind of a remark. Really. !.
Truly childish and hilarious.
An addition for you. I doubt the publication in question, which you don’t like, and we won’t mention, got is information from nowhere,
I'm aware of the history of the New York Post, and I'm also aware that it has rightly come under much criticism for becoming little more than a tabloid - routinely coming under fire for it's sensationalist and manipulative "reporting". Clearly you're a fan of Wikipedia, so I'm sure you can find more about that there. And, you may not like to admit it, but some news organisations are more reputable than others.
And my comment concerning the New York Post's link to Hamas only follows your line of reasoning (and that of the NY Post and Fox News).
See if you can follow:
HLF was the biggest Islamic Charity in the United States for a long time, and had a long list of contributors. Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, donated to the Council on American-Islamic Relations (an organisation directly linked with HLF which also had charges brought against it).
Al-Waleed bin Talal is News Corporation's (owners of the New York Post and Fox News Network as you already know) second largest shareholder.
Which, by your logic (i.e. Fox New's logic) would suggest that News Corp, Fox News and the New York Post have ties to Hamas.
See the problem there.
It's the same sort of link you're trying to establish between the "Ground Zero Mosque" and "terrorist organisations". It's not a matter of the information being incorrect, it's a matter of it's relevance beyond guilt by association.
It's pathetic, and doesn't stand up to common sense.
You've so far failed to provide anything that shows otherwise.
Sorry.
