They would have liked to build upon ground zero, but they tried to across the street.
there where never any plans to build on the sight of the world trade center. There were also no plans to build across the street. It was a suggestion the news picked up and ran, but the permits for the 2 blocks away location already existed when the controversy hit. Its all propaganda.
When that did not work out, then they were able to build two blocks away still in view of ground zero. Have you guys never heard of Al-Takeyya
I've heard of it, its the Arabic word for "to Lie". We have an English word for that "to lie" and I can pull up Bible passages where God told his people directly to lie to people. Its once again propaganda to try and convince people to give up their protections from the government.
Here is some scripture about lying. In Judaism lying is a sin.
Leviticus 19:11
" 'Do not steal. " 'Do not lie. " 'Do not deceive one another.
Numbers 23:19
God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?
1 Samuel 15:29
He who is the Glory of Israel does not lie or change his mind; for he is not a man, that he should change his mind."
Psalm 5:6
You destroy those who tell lies; bloodthirsty and deceitful men the LORD abhors.
Psalm 34:13
keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking lies.
Psalm 144:8
whose mouths are full of lies, whose right hands are deceitful.
Psalm 144:11
Deliver me and rescue me from the hands of foreigners whose mouths are full of lies, whose right hands are deceitful.
Proverbs 19:9
A false witness will not go unpunished, and he who pours out lies will perish.
Jeremiah 14:14
Then the LORD said to me, "The prophets are prophesying lies in my name. I have not sent them or appointed them or spoken to them. They are prophesying to you false visions, divinations, idolatries and the delusions of their own minds.
Romans 1:25
They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.
1 John 1:6
If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth.
