I wonder if it will be compared to this video:

If it’s not on television it didn’t happen.
Brian Williams & Diane Sawyer are too busy covering for their Messiah Barry to cover actual news like this!
And this is a NATO member? interesting. Wonder what Germany thinks of all this??
The fight is over the proposed redevelopment of a favourite urban space which along with new mosque will change the very nature of the area.
I think it goes to show that in 2013 states can do a lotta bad moves but do not upset the Cafe set. Do not take away their quaint little hangouts. As a fan of eclectic urban mish mash I agree .
Modern Mosques are an abomination & mega spoilers of neighbourhoods. They loom darkly over everything & are totally fake . There is nothing to admire -as against historic examples – because construction is just everyday technology now.
There is a $100 million Erdogan sham mosque being built in Maryland. I hope to see similar demonstrations.
Maryland deserves another mosque and all the camel humpers it will bring.

It’s now or never for these protestors, lest the country fall into the radical theocracy model.
