"Cousins was also awarded the Eleanor Roosevelt Peace Award in 1963, the Family Man of the Year Award in 1968, the United Nations Peace Medal in 1971, and the Niwano Peace Prize in 1990. His proudest moment by his own reckoning, however, was when Albert Einstein called him to Princeton University to discuss issues of nuclear disarmament and world federalism."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-81576131191388192302010-08-19T11:48:29.821-04:002010-08-19T11:48:29.821-04:00it already has been, now let's see if we can g...it already has been, now let's see if we can get rid of themDaniel Greenfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575285186581875356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-17429192128376240842010-08-18T08:22:37.311-04:002010-08-18T08:22:37.311-04:00I thought America is a democracy and the leader is...I thought America is a democracy and the leader is suppossed to be sensitive to the opinion of the citizens.

I just have a question and a few random thoughts.<br /><br />THE QUESTION:<br /><br />I just wonder whether this Cordoba Mosque idea will end up being a tactical mistake and a miscalculation? Most normal and rational people (that means neither politicians nor journalists) seem to be firmly against it, and they're not giving up. <br /><br />Will this act of provocation backfire? Since you live in NYC you may have a feeling for where this controversy is heading to.<br /><br />~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br /><br />RANDOM ITEMS:<br /><br />I listened to a debate on the BBC between Pamela Geller and SHAHED Amanullah, and in the middle of a barrage of accusations of Islamophobia against Pamela - and anyone who opposes the mosque - SHAHED briefly said that he would have preferred a different location. So maybe they are having some regrets already.<br /><br />Here is the link for that debate:<br /><br />http://nomosquesatgroundzero.wordpress.com/2010/08/15/bbc-radio-ground-zero-debate-geller-vs-shahed-amanullah/<br /><br />(I just discovered that website. Looks interesting.)<br /><br />~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br /><br />The debater's name was Shahed. According to the Free Dictionary it means martyr. <br /><br />Shaheed - Arabic term for holy martyrs; applied by Palestinians to suicide bombers.<br /><br />That's what mom and dad envisioned for their baby. Isn't that sweet?<br /><br />~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br /><br />Oh, I just glanced at the Jerusalem Post and Ed Koch is the latest supporter of the mosque. <br /><br />I hope there is a Hall of Shame being built on the web where his and other names will be listed for eternity.<br /><br />~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br /><br />I loved the tone of your column, Daniel, particularly these two gems:<br /><br />"When Malik Hasan opened fire at Fort Hood, the media spent thousands of pounds of ink claiming that he was suffering from some airborne form of PTSD that he picked up from the soldiers he was abusing-- all evidence to the contrary."<br /><br />Airborne? :-)<br /><br />"You might think that Anwar Al-Awlaki snapped after enough appearances on PBS and NPR, whose soft calming music and lobotomized hosts could turn anyone into a terrorist."<br /><br />I'm a regular listener of NPR, both of the lobotomized hosts and the soft calming music. Should I worry? Judging by this string of unfocused sentences, maybe they are really rewiring our brains!!! :-)Tracy Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00518463946300763941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-16405210737150978702010-08-17T22:09:02.086-04:002010-08-17T22:09:02.086-04:00I think it's a possibility.I think it's a possibility.Daniel Greenfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575285186581875356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-24333417826239877932010-08-17T21:48:35.556-04:002010-08-17T21:48:35.556-04:00Quote I read today -

Islamists in America, in their spirit of respect and grace, will appear to back off from building an Islamic center near ground zero. But do not believe it. Do not stop pressuring the public sentiment. There are actually two entities that are to be built on the complex near ground zero - a mosque and an Islamic center. Watch these cunning Islamist leaders recant on the center, so they can keep the mosque. Watch how the media and the White House will praise them for being so sensitive. Then they will build the mosque as intended - a memorial to their struggle against the "great American satan.""<br /><br />What do you think?Sandylionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01568345538358257123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-71900336567716909492010-08-17T18:41:48.090-04:002010-08-17T18:41:48.090-04:00Exquisite.

Muslims 'baaaahing at you' - ditto.<br /><br />It's unfortunate that OHB has downgraded 'war on terror' to something like 'anti-Islamic behaviour' to fool the brainless - but, like us, the majority of US citizens are not fooled by the media or govt. propaganda.<br /><br />It's funny how the destruction of Joseph's tomb by Palestinians never got a mention in the press, even tho he's supposed to be one of their prophets, and yet the destruction of synagogues was given a plethora of excuses by the BBC &. Tolerance really does become a crime when applied to evil (Thomas Mann).<br /><br />There is a megaprotest march planned for 9/11, at ground zero, see Atlas Shrugs for details (I'm not sure if I can plug another site, please edit out if I;m not) I thought you'd all like to know. kbAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-12624799471649636312010-08-17T10:05:38.857-04:002010-08-17T10:05:38.857-04:00thank you Ken

There are many voices that would join with yours and that are speaking out against this destuctive ideaology the problem is we should not only be lone voices only crying out from here and there, but we should find a means of uniting these voices so that they can, at present just a whisper, rise to a phenomenal shout. We, the informed must find a way to warn more publicly and without fear of consequence before it is too late and we are all veiled and in submission, or, like those over whose graves they hope to raise a visctory standard silenced forever.Dodienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-44306897240386665542010-08-17T07:27:34.196-04:002010-08-17T07:27:34.196-04:00Dan, your much appreciated and skillfull work is r...Dan, your much appreciated and skillfull work is read on a daily basis.
