Default Feds move to seize N.Y. skyscraper, 4 mosques

Mulsim or not.. if these are tied to terrorists, or funded by a terrorism sponsoring nation - this is the right move.

Kinda interesting how a "non-profit" organization can own a skyscraper et al.

If they didn't have strong concrete evidence that these organizations were linked to terrorists they sure as hell wouldn't have seized 5 buildings. We all know how long it takes our government to get anything done, so for this to happen they must have been working for a LONG time to make it clear cut.

lol dave...do you really think the Feds would do something as controversial as seize 4 mosques without being damn sure that they aid terrorism? I'm 100% positive they were investigation the places for several months, maybe even a couple years, before coming to their conclusion. This isnt the same situation as Hasan by the way...

Well if Fleebag is 100% positive I guess there must be no doubt to their guilt.

After all "they were investigation the places" as Flee says. Calm down people, Fleesh*t was there and part of the investigationing going on fo sure.

Dude, you're jumping to conclusions here. How can you be so sure of your assumption?

Ask yourself why these were chosen when American businesses have sponsored the IRA, Jews (pre-Israel), Cuban revolutionist, and a variety of subversive (call terrorists in the respective nations) organizations with so much as a peep...

Is this thread meant to inform us of something that's happening or to project guilt onto a religion? Granted the Muslim religion is the most exposed for causing problems recently, but I honestly dont see what this has to do with ALL Muslims. All Muslim extremists being terrorists though? Starting to seem that way. But to make blanket statements about the entire religion is a little outrageous. I would think you would be hard pressed to find a member on here who doesnt know a single peaceful Muslim. I know I have met some

Looks like it was more part of the recent financial sanctions against Iran regarding their resistance to stop their nuclear enrichment to nuclear weapons grade.
