Ground Zero Mosque Developers: Fox News is "Hypocritical," Has Ties to "Truthers"

Here's something I will never understand: if the developers of the Ground Zero Mosque (GZM) truly want to co-exist with those around them, why do they keep hurling incendiary insults?

Under the username Park51, on Twitter the developers of the GZM lashed out at Fox News recently.  Writing about a report on Bill O'Reilly, Park51 wrote:


That link at the end leads to a Media Matters report that alleges, "Fox News has much closer ties to Truthers than [Imam] Rauf allegedly does."  Smooth.  Seriously, did the GZM developers actually think that it was smart to link to an article that claims that Fox News might have connections with people who think 9/11 was an inside job?

The "cc: @cordobainit" is the Cordoba Initiative, another group in favor of building the GZM.  Cordobainit writes such things as asking its supporters to sign petitions from the ACLU:


And also hilariously claiming that "77%" of Americans support the building of the Mosque:


Once again, I don't understand why the developers keep doing things like this.  Maybe you all can make sense of it.

  1. Are these really the people tied to the mosque, or is someone pretending to be them?
