Islamic Expert: Muslims Will View Construction Of Mosque Near Ground Zero As “Triumph Over America”
He also declares that if the mosque is built it could prove to be the “spark” that begins a “war between civilizations.” Hamid is well acquainted with the threats from radical Islam — he was once a member of a terrorist Islamic organization along with Dr. Ayman Al-Zawahiri, who later became the second in command of al-Qaida. Today Hamid is a senior fellow and chair for the Study of Islamic Radicalism at the Potomac Institute for Policy Studies. He is the author of "Inside Jihad: Understanding and Confronting Radical Islam," and a regular Newsmax contributor. President Barack Obama said over the weekend that the Muslims have the right to build the mosque near ground zero in Manhattan, although he later stated he did not advocate the construction. But New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has said he does advocate construction. In an exclusive interview with Newsmax.TV, Hamid criticized Bloomberg’s advocacy of the mosque.
