$2.65m to 'save' hardliner's mosque
Edited on Fri Jun-25-04 11:57 PM by Jim Sagle

SAUDIS have donated almost $2.65 million to buy a mosque in Sydney for supporters of one of Australia's most hardline Islamic clerics.
<snip>
Articles have appeared in Arabic newspapers and websites overseas appealing for donations to help pay for the Sydney mosque, with warnings that Jews or Buddhists were trying to buy the site.
<snip>
Sheikh Legha from the Voice of Islam radio station said locals were working hard to raise the money themselves. Advertisements were being played on the radio station and people were collecting donations in the streets.
<snip>
The Islamic community is concerned about the Judaisation of the neighbourhood and a deposit has been paid in case the mosque is sold to the Jewish community," one of their notices says.
The Jooooos are rooooooning the neighborhood!!!! Moooooooo!!!!!!!

1. Buy the mosque. Hire the imam. It's the Wahabi way.
Very similar to the Christian method.
