Salah Uddin Shoaib Choudhury: The Mosque at Ground Zero, a Muslim View: Planting a Flag on an Islamic Conquest - 'As a believing Muslim, it is hard to see a mosque at Ground Zero in New York City as anything other than another horror-- a kick on the face to everyone who is still heavy with shock at the tragic death of 3,000 people killed by Islamist militants during the attack on 9/11. The mosque will cost over US$ 100 million; by now, money is already being shifted in the fund for its construction. Incidentally, a major segment of this money is coming from Arab nations, especially Saudis...'
Greetings Mr. Choudhury,
I just found out about your freedom and I wish to tell you how delighted I am and to thank you for your integrity and courage.
When you were arrested for speaking your mind against bigotry I was fearful for your life. I am not a religious man but I do pray for your safety and I hope you will be able to continue speaking out for justice such as this case of flaunting a mosque in the face of peoples pain and anguish just because the oil money gushes.
