To Appease The Enemy Empire State Building To Go Green For Muslim Holiday
Empire State Building to go green for Muslim holiday
New York's iconic Empire State Building is to be lit up green from Friday in honor of the Muslim holiday of Eid, the biggest festival in the Muslim calendar marking the end of Ramadan, officials said.
"This is the first time that the Empire State Building will be illuminated for Eid, and the lighting will become an annual event in the same tradition of the yearly lightings for Christmas and Hannukah," according to a statement.
Eid al-Fitr, which marks the end of the fasting month, is expected to be celebrated in New York from Friday, depending on when the new moon is sighted, and the city's tallest skyscraper will remain green until Sunday.
Built in the early 1930s, the 443-meter-tall (1,454-feet-tall) Empire State Building was first lit up with colored lighting in 1976, when red, white and blue lights were used to mark the American Bicentennial.
An estimated seven million Muslims live in the United States.
Special Lighting Requests:
The Empire State Building has developed an annual lighting schedule which honors National Holidays, seasons, the myriad ethnic groups living in the New York City area and many worthy causes

Wild Thing's comment........
I think the Mussies have lit up enough US buildings thank you very much!
Appease the lunatics and they won’t make you a target, doncha know? It is the Muslimization of American that has grown since 9/11. Commit terrorist acts and we will love you kind of message. If they came out with a press release tomorrow stating that they are installing a crescent moon on top of the building, it wouldn’t surprise me one bit. The surrender monkeys will be putting a burka on the Statue of Liberty soon enough.

....Thank you Tom for the link to this information.

The Empire State Building should be lit RED for the 2,996 Americans (including 120 foreigners) that were butchered, burned, slaughtered and pulverised a few blocks away on 9-11-01! Yeah - we called a Jap a Jap, a Kraut a Kraut, a Meatball a Meatball and a Russkie a Russkie not too long ago, but now 76% of Christian Americans have to submit to the 2% muslims? Absolutely freaking DISGUSTING! And over 1,000 slaughtered victims of 9-11-01 still haven't been ID'd, found or properly buried? NY has gone to shiite in a basket - big time.

I'm sorry, but yes, this goes too far.
But look at the city it's in--NYC. NY and San Fran are the most liberal cities in the US.
And I thought green was for those of us who have Irish ancestry!
You don't see us demanding that the city light up the buildings green for St. Pat's do you? We just get drunk on Guiness and sing off key in a pub!
It's time for the Mooslems to stop pushing their agenda and for the dummycraps to stop letting it happen.

"Appease the lunatics and they won’t make you a target"
The purpose of Terrorism isn't killing people or blowing things up. Those things are a means of achieving Terrorism. The purpose of Terrorism is to strike fear into an enemy so they will do all they possibly can to appease you. Terrorism makes an enemy submit to you willingly. Terrorism has already done its job in Europe and now it's working on the US.
We see what Terrorists are doing on the streets of Iraq and we have a fear of them bringing it over here. So, to hopefully prevent them from bringing it over here, were going to do all we can to appease them.

We have an ex president(Carter-Castro)going public and claiming to the world that the United States employs torture against it's prisoners, we have a current president(Bush) that claims there is no difference between the dieties we worship or that which the muzzies worship,(that infers that the murdering pedophile Mohammed too was of the immaculate conception), we have congress voting to establish EID as a religious holiday(Ellison works fast). Our president has head of state powers that he defers(He wants to appease Mexico) to the Judicial branch that will defer them to the Hague, illegals can come here, rape and murder, be sentenced and those sentences can't be carried out with international law superceding our sovereignty. There goes the Constitution folks, it will be a secondary document of fading value, forget it's guarantees, George has succeeded where JFK failed, he has just given your heritage to the Hague. We are entering that one world government without so much as a whimper. This week Vincente Fox admitted that there was a plan to adopt a universal currency for the NAU, so just roll over and hit that snooze button folks , heck, it's all a dream.

I don't get this, what idiots!
I'm stealing your graphic to plug your post on mine.

Unbelievable! Maybe we should just declare the Statue of Liberty a mosque. This statue represents just the opposite of what islam represents. Next we will let the Alamo be a Saudi consulate and the Lincoln Memorial can be a Mexican consulate.
Jack has covered the reasons well. We make fun of the French being surrender monkeys, but it looks like we may try to one-up them. Sad, maddening, depressing.

I have a comment that I wanted to make yesterday. Please don't judge Texans by the ilks of Ms. EDDIE BERNICE JOHNSON of Texas.
She is a filthy, crude, hateful and dispeakable being. I think a hurricane blew her here from the "Chocolate City" as a child. (hey, I didn't invent the name)
Trust me. She may reside here and practice (?)politics here, BUT she is NO Texan!!!!

Darth, it is so sad to see this kind of thing happening. And an outrage.
Posted by: Wild Thing at October 11, 2007 11:55 PM
Lynn, yes, one would think the Muslims would pull back and be concerned more about showing how badly they feel about their other followers on a killing spree around the world.
But instead they look for more and more ways to get in our faces with their religion.

Bob that's true.
I am more afraid though of the left destroying our country then I am of the terrorists. I can shoot a terrorist I can't shoot a dem without going to jail. haha

Billy yes I bet Rudy doesn't like this happening.
Posted by: Wild Thing at October 12, 2007 12:01 AM
Jack I know your right, I just can't go silently though.

Mark Krauss, hi sure thanks for liking it.

Tom..."This statue represents just the opposite of what islam represents."....and what a huge difference too.

Steve, my wonderful friend, I love Texas. I lived in Dallas, for 5 years. It is one of my favorite States. Heck even though I am living in Florida now I still think of myself as a California girl. And when I dream of my days in California it has nothing to do with the lefties, it has to do with the beauty of the State, the wonderful people I made friends with and the other good things about it.
Like Texas, for me it is one of the friendliest places to live, gosh I loved it there.
I don't think anyone blames a State for the lefties in it. ((hug))

Ahab Sorin Gasser... The world say's 98% believe that GOD exists, and in MY country, the United States of America, aka the world's greatest and most blest superpower, over 76% of legal Americans are 76% CHRISTIAN, versus 1%-2%that are muslim.
