The ‘Mega-Mosque’ Hate Video Rejected by NBC and CBS

From the National Republican Trust Political Action Committee, this is the advertisement that was rejected by NBC and CBS.

The fear mongering is so completely over the top in this little piece of hate propaganda, there’s not much to say about it.

So I’ll just attempt to relay some facts. Contrary to what the ad says, this is not a “mega-mosque” overlooking Ground Zero. It’s two blocks away, and it’s a pre-existing 13-story building that will be remodeled into a community center with an auditorium, swimming pool, restaurants, and … gasp … a mosque.

Here’s an embedded Google Maps view of the area, showing a couple of large buildings in between the proposed community center at 45 Park Place and Ground Zero.

The only thing it will “overlook” is the Amish Market. Don’t they realize the terrible danger they’re in? You can’t fight off Osama bin Laden with a butter churn!
