Angry Empire State Bldg To Go Green To Celebrate Muslim Holiday?
Quote:
New York's iconic Empire State Building is to be lit up green from Friday in honor of the Muslim holiday of Eid, the biggest festival in the Muslim calendar marking the end of Ramadan, officials said.
"This is the first time that the Empire State Building will be illuminated for Eid, and the lighting will become an annual event in the same tradition of the yearly lightings for Christmas and Hannukah," according to a statement.

Funny, if you really think of where our real "confidence" is, then the Libs and Dems will have to reap what they sow soon enough. We already know what's going to happen. In a way I feel sorry for them when it's time to wake up and smell the coffee.........

Did we stop celebrating christian religious holidays when people blew up clinics and shot people? That's terrorism...did we stop after Oklahoma City? Ideology....we as Americans...until recently...celebrated diversity...at least some of us did...how much are we going to give up in the name of terrorism and stay American?

What war of ideology do you mean? The Culture War....or the War against Terror? Or are they the same to you?

This type thinking is exactly why we're losing our country. Sounds like there are people wishing Osama well. This is America, when people come here they should learn about and respect American culture. If we went to any other country, we'd have to learn and live by theirs. We're not supposed to change the rules every time someone's little noggin in the U.S. may get offended.

We aren't losing our Country...we have an administration that end runs around it's laws...

Only in your mind would you think people, any people, are wishing Osama well....

Does 'learn about and respect American culture'....mean they have to give up their religion? Are you saying we can only have one religion in this country or only approved religions? Who decides these things....?

What rules were changed?

These are the very foundations of our country. We do not go to other countrys expecting them to do everything our way. Yes we should have freedom of religion. No, we should not give freedom of religion to people in the KKK, Islam or any other religion that has intent to kill. IF they seriously took a stand against what the Koran says, then go for it, they can have all the freedom of religion they want over here, but as it stands they go by the law of the Koran. It's full intent being to kill. There's a mulititide of religions they can adopt that have nothing to do with murder. New Age, WIcca, whatever. I don't have to believe in those religions as it's my choice not to, I do have the right to speak out against anyone or any religion that teaches murder and so should every other sound minded American

You are laboring under a delusion...we don't give or deny ANYONE their rights, period. This is AMERICA!

I hear Bush and friends have a huge compound in Paraguay...maybe that's the next promised land....
