Muslims in Spain appeal to UNESCO for shared use of Cordoba cathedral

* You know the drill: once Islamic, always Islamic.
* They tried before and the Vatican gave them a shoe in the ass. But that won’t stop them.
Cordoba’s cathedral was once a mosque
Will UNESCO give the Muslims in Spain what they want? They’re more likely to do so than the Vatican. In any case, there are innumerable churches all over the Islamic world that have been turned into mosques, and we never hear about them. No one is agitating in Constantinople for the Hagia Sophia to be opened again for public Christian prayer, or in Damascus for the Umayyad Mosque, built atop a demolished church dedicated to St. John the Baptist, to be opened to Christians. Now, why is that?
(ANSAmed) – MADRID, FEBRUARY 6 - The Islamic council does not give up its claim to use the cathedral mosque of Cordoba for Muslim prayer and appeals to UNESCO to pronounce on the use of the temple which is part of the heritage of humanity. The president of the Islamic council, Mansur Escudero, in statements published by the media called for intervention on the part of the UN organisation. “Since the cathedral is part of the heritage of humanity, UNESCO should pronounce or present a report, the way it has done with other monuments,” Escudero said. According to the Islamic council leader, the shared use of the cathedral in Cordoba for Catholic and Muslim rite “will play an important role in the alliance of civilisations” because “temples should be open to all believers, Muslim, Catholic and all other religions”.
* ‘Humanity’ means Muslims only…
* ‘Alliance of civilizations’ no such thing: Islam is not a civilization.
For more than 20 years the Islamic council has claimed the shared use of the mosque-cathedral and, in 2004, it filed a formal proposal with the Holy See. The archbishop of Cordoba has always refused to open the doors of the temple to Muslim prayer.(ANSAmed).
“Temples should be open to all believers…” Fine. Lets open the mosques for the Buddhists, the Hindu’s, the Methodists, the Zaroastrians….

This is a satirical website. None of what you read here has anything to do with Islam, because Islam is a Religion of Peace. Everybody knows that good Muslims never do the things they do, (because Allah does it for them, Quran 8:12) and we know that only our misperceptions, ignorance and stereotyping of Islam makes Muslims chop off heads, kill and rape women and children, bomb subways, buses, nightclubs and fly jets into buildings. If it wasn't for the media and da Jooozzz, we wouldn't even know its happening.
We welcome open, honest, thoughtful, and vigorous discussion in the comments threads, so do yourself a favour and don't accuse us of being 'haters' because we are loving, tolerant people. Don't curse us, don't threaten us with death or hellfire, and don't accuse us of being "just like the terrorists" because we don't do to Muslims what they do to us or to themselves. Yes, we know that only idiots oppose Islam and sensible people submit, but you should know that we are ignorant bigots, hypocrites and Islamophobes, and we prefer to remain that way...
But since you are forcing yourselves (and your abhorrent belief-system on us) we will defend ourselves, because we must. Avoid tu quoque and ad hominem attacks. Don't bother with circular reasoning either, we been there, done it. If you annoy us, you will be banned and your posts summarily deleted.
Try to add to the discussion, don't try to sell snake oil, don't try to cover us with Islamic shrouds of kitman and taqiyya, don't bother with da'awa, (we've heard it before) don't spam us with long pieces of cut & paste, write in English, try to tell the truth,
(we know that's hard for you because you are all pathological liars) but the truth will set you free, try it!
One more thing: don't think you can post here under multiple monikers. You will quickly be disappeared! The same goes for
trufers and conspiracy kooks: you get one chance, one time. Blow it out of your ass if you must; put your stupidity on display.
But you won't be back, trust me on that.
Take a deep breath before you post, try to make some sense, do not just vent, do not make a fool of yourself and if you prove us wrong you can earn 10 Islamic dollars for your piggy bank. Deal?

The hell with them. How many former churches in the ummah are shared by their current Koranic overlords? Zero? I thought so.
I can’t imagine the Jerusalem Temple being open to … muslims … after Whelan the Wrecker
swings his ball on “al Aqsa”.
I guess after the Madrid bombings the islamics thought they had better tighten the screws while it’s still fresh in peoples minds. Of course, another homicide bombing should get them what they want.
Apparently it was originally built as St Vicente church, until Abd al-Rahman I tore it
down & built the mosque, reusing the church materials …

I’m sure it “offends the sensitivities” of muslims world wide to see it remaining in
infidel hands.
Can non-muslims go to Mecca?. What happened to these Europeans?, are they crazy?.
A nation called Maldives has a population of 300,000 and the number of foreigners working in the Maldives are 50,000, but foreigners are not allowed to practice their religion in the Maldives and it is prohibited. When Muslims go to non-muslims countries they start shouting saying ” no religious freedom”, but if you go to Saudi Arabia they say” we are following Allah’s rule and you can’t stop it”. George Bush will say ” we know Islam is a good religion” and British labour party says” Muslims are the best and we want to rule British like Pakistan’
I hate islam. But, more than islam I hate dhimmis, especially government dhimmis. Why the hell doesn’t anyone ever get fired anymore? That stinking arch bishop should get kicked out the street curb….and then he should get a good beating.
They are like our looney left – they will keep at it until they find the one idiot that will give them an ‘in’. And that is what mohammed taught them to do. Once they get in it will be only a short time before giving the Christians the boot.
This won’t stop from them.
Why blame Muslims when they have always remained consistent in their intentions & actions? They want the destruction of the Western world & we are letting them do it piece by piece just the same way we let them wipe out Christianity & Judaism in middle east bit by bit.
We are the ones committing suicide, they are just the squatters awaiting for the job to be finished off so they can repopulate our land with their filth & backwardness. Time for humans to go back & live like animals once more.
